In my previous blog, I already shared a few basic homemade scrubbing recipes for yummy-looking skin. Also, I stated how scrubbing helps us discover our beauty hidden by a layer of “Bhagwan ko pyare Ho Gaye” cells.
In this blog, I wish to inform the readers about a few Do’s and Don’ts of scrubbing.
Let’s start the blog with a positive Vibe. So, Do’s first and then the Don’ts.
Do’s
- Scrub your whole body only once a week. Twice maximum if you feel your pollutants and dirt love you a bit too much.
- Scrub your face only and only once a week. Your skin is not that dirty buddy!
- Before scrubbing, put a little oil on your face. It helps to scrub the delicate skin better, without being harsh.
- After scrubbing, wash your face using normal room-temperature water. Using warm water can make the skin more dry.
- When scrubbing your skin, be it your face or any other portion, use gentle circular motion in an upward stroke.
- Use final granular items. The granules should not be very coarse and bigger in size. Select your scrubbing ingredients carefully.
- Always moisturise your skin after scrubbing. You can use oil also if your skin doesn’t have breakouts on applying oils.
Now let’s deal with the strict “No-No” that you have to take care of healthy skin.
Don’ts
- Never scrub your skin daily or even more than twice in a week. Your skin is not a dirty and charred utensil that you need to scrub daily.
- Using a scrubbing recipe that involves bigger granules can completely damage your skin.
- Using hot water after scrubbing is not a good idea so don’t do it. It makes your skin more dry and rashes can come out.
- Scrubbing your skin with excessive pressure by your palm can damage your skin. The pressure should be light and gentle.
- Do not mix a lot of different ingredients together to scrub your skin. Mixture of different ingredients together can cause a reaction on skin so keep it simple.
Follow these Dos and Don’ts of Scrubbing while cleansing your skin using the ingredients I have mentioned in my previous blog.
Your skin will thank you and the gratitude will be visible in the form of a healthy glowing skin soon.
