Choosing the best cleanser for your body comes from knowing what's best for your skin type as well as your personal preference. Find out how to choose the right product for you.
So you are standing in the health, skin and beauty aisle at the store and you seem overwhelmed. Bar soaps, body washes and shower gels all compete for your attention and well as your money. When picking the right product for you, you should consider your skin type. If your skin tends be sensitive and dry, or is it oily. When searching those aisles look for the products that specify that on the labels. Your bathing habits can be an important factor in what products you choose that are the best for you. When bathing, it is best to use warm water instead of hot water. It is also important to moisturize immediately after toweling off. Whether you choose bar or bottle, many body cleansers have the same effect. These products remove dirt, bacteria and unfortunately some of your natural body oils. Removing of that oil makes your skin dryer. One solution is to look for products that state that they are moisturizing. Many body washes leave a layer of moisturizer on the skin that helps to replenish the oils removed. You actually do not need a lot of foam to get clean. As a matter of fact, non-soap cleansers that do not foam tend to leave more of your natural oils. Most people can avoid overdrying their skin by selecting a soap for sensitive skin and by applying a body lotion to still damp skin after bathing. This seals the moisture back into your skin and replenishes the oils removed.
