My girlfriend says that washing ur face with soap is bad for your face, because it takes the acid "coat" off Is this true?
HELLO YES She is right 100%
I am a trained beautician. Also yesterday just passed my course with the worlds largest Dermalogica Beauty and the Department of the skin. soap is not good for the skin inless you buy a special soap possiable recommended by the therapist because of your skin condition of the skin.
What you need is a cleanser and a toner cream. your 14 zones on the surface of the face. This is even more likely not make sense.
Soap strips mainly on the face of all the natural oils. leaving the dry face and unconditional.
If you want more advice on the products of your choice in the range are good for you send me an email.
those who use soap you may not see or agree with what I say. but in the years to come, you will see the effect of using soap on your face .... yes you feel clean Agreement. but the skin all over face needs norishments correct to maintain a healthy skin type and no effect on the pH level in the eye .... visit the Dermalogica website i do not work for them I am not trying to sell their products. but reading about them, they are the world's leading treatment and training products
bs
What is acid mantle???
As far as I know it's wrong. You should clean your face at least once a day, never more than twice a day, because it can irritate skin and cause acne.
I wash my face with soap and as long as I can remember. I am 42 years old and nobody will ever guess my exact age. My kids laughed and said that if I am only 10 years younger, I would like the same age. I love it when I tell people that I have 4 grandchildren son. They always say that I would not have guessed you old enough to be a grandmother.
How does she propose to get the daily dirt and dark oil much less excess skin. and what exactly is an acid mantle ... looks like someone trying to sell an expensive skin treatment that is placed.
why not use face wash u better than soap .. Well, I do not harm her face when you use soap, but its dependence on the soap this soap helps a bit ...
False, I wash twice a day does not wash over what I did for a week, I had acne, it is bad coused by the oil being removed and will produce ur face more oil on the face regular heart
TWICE A DAY! ONLY!
I've never heard of "acid mantle" and I agree with the idea that you should wash your face at least once if not twice daily. Cleaning your face is important for obtaining oil per day, sweat, and whatever-else (air pollutants - dust, soot, that sort of thing), off your face. Added bonus: It helps stop the acne and keeps your pores pampering!
That said, your girlfriend has a point if she speaks any kind of soap you use. You do not want to wash your face with something really hard that cleans your face, but dries completely OUT. I would not use, for example, a bar of Ivory soap to wash my face. You want to use something that is designed to be used on your face, it cleans but does not damage your skin.
SOAP does not remove the dirt on the face, but it also removes the skins natural oils and lanolins that help keep skin soft so far, it is much more correct to use cold water flat on his face as it cleans skin, but being cold is the best remedy to keep wrinkles at bay without using creams etc. I am not saying that you're concerned about wrinkles Steve J, but it is something that most women can try The cold water seems to cause the skin to tighten and become more farm where hot water relaxes the skin and the fact of going soft which causes wrinkles
As far as I know it's not good to wash your face with "common" soaps. You need a facial cleanser, because the pH balance does not hurt.
