7 Tips That Will Change the Way You Shower

Showering is something we do every day and, for some, it’s a sacred ritual. With that said, we should make the most of our time behind the curtain by doing it the smartest way possible. Here are some tips that will save you time and help upgrade your shower experience.

Skip the hot water

Although the feeling of a hot shower is awesome, it’s better to stick with lukewarm water instead to avoid drying out your skin.

Opt for shower gel

If you’re a fan of soap, you may find it interesting to know that soap can strip your skin of its natural oils, leaving skin dry, tight, and sometimes itchy. A better option is to use a hydrating shower gel, like Arganatural Anti-Aging Shower Gels which are infused with natural argan oil for all skin-types.

Switch out your loofah or washcloth

Loofahs and washcloths can harbor things like mold, bacteria and yeast. That’s why it is important to replace your loofah at least once a month and your washcloth daily to avoid breakouts and irritating the skin.

Shampoo smarter

When reaching for the shampoo, focus putting a bulk of the product on your roots, scalp, and at the nape of the neck instead of the length of the hair. The reason for this is because those areas are where most of the oils and dirt we collect end up. Also ease up on the amount of shampoo you're using. Not only will it save product and money but it’s better for the ends of your hair which are prone to brittleness and dryness. Not sure what shampoo to use? We recommend Arganatural Nourishing Argan Shampoo to gently cleanse hair while maintaining natural moisture levels.

Take short showers

We suggest taking showers that are short - around 5 to 10 minutes. This will help your skin maintain its natural essential oils and avoid dry and itchy patches of skin.

Save shaving for the end

To get the best shave and reduce ingrown hairs, we suggest waiting until 5 minutes into your shower before shaving. This ensures that the hair is softened and your pores are open for a clean, close shave.

Moisturize right after you’re done

Right after you shower and dry off, apply lotion to the skin to seal moisture into the skin and protect the epidermal barrier. We recommend Arganatural Body Lotions for intense hydration and anti-aging benefits.
