Why Not To Use Soap Every Day

STIL inspiration

Hi,

Some time ago we made a post about why not to wash your hair every day. If you do this, you should really read that post, because it's a mistake that quite a lot of girls make. And actually it's the exact same thing with soap. There are so many people who wash their body with soap every day without realizing that this is really unhealthy for their skin.

While using shampoo too often will leave your hair too greasy, using soap too often will make your skin too dry. Sure it takes away dirt, but it also takes away good oils, wich are neccesery to keep your skin hydratated.
And for those who use shampoo to wash their body: this is really the worst thing you can do.It might be convenient, but shampoo is designed to remove oils and buildup from your hair. Logically it'll also remove all oils off your skin, wich leaves it really dry and vunerable.

Don't get me wrong, you should still shower every day, but if you do this, make sure you only use soap and shampoo every two days.
And for your face it's actually better to use soap every day. Most people have already an oily skin, so washing it every day will reduce that. And it'll also help against acne.

A great way to keep your skin moisturized after using soap is by using body lotion when you've just showered and your skin's still damp.
