Showers are proven methods of relaxation. If you go one step further and include your skin treatment routine while you shower, it becomes an “Everything Shower”. There is an “Everything Shower” for your hair as well as your body.
It rejuvenates your scalp, hair texture, and skin while giving you a lengthy and relaxing me-time. The frequency of these baths differs among people. Some of you may have an “Everything Shower” once a week, some may have them twice a week. Most people talk about how they help with stress management and lowering their anxiety.
Everything Shower’s Step-by-Step Guide
Focusing mainly on your skin, there is an “Everything Shower” routine that you may follow for best results.
1. Exfoliate: Exfoliating helps get rid of dead skin cells. It leaves your skin fresh and makes it easier to shave on. You can exfoliate once a week or once every two weeks depending on how sensitive your skin is.
A good exfoliating scrub cleans your skin without leaving it too dry. It unclogs your pores. A scrub that doesn’t suit you may cause irritation. A gentle exfoliating face wash or scrub can help keep your skin healthy without causing an allergic reaction.
2. Shave: The next step is shaving your body. Use a whipped shower pudding to form a good lather on your skin before you use a razor. The lather helps avoid irritation of the skin and aids in a smooth shave. Removing dead skin cells with an exfoliating scrub helps you get a smoother surface to shave. This allows you to reach the hair follicles.
Follow the proper method of shaving to avoid any burn/cut/rash. A consistent skincare routine should result in soft and supple skin.
3. Wash: A gentle wash after exfoliating and shaving your skin helps remove any remnant product. Make sure you don’t scrub your skin after shaving as it may irritate your skin.
4. Moisturise: After the entire routine, keep your skin healthy and hydrated by applying ample amounts of your favourite moisturiser. A lightweight lotion seals moisture and your skin barrier.
An “Everything Shower” is a crucial part of your skincare routine, where you look after your skin while getting some time to relax. Similarly, there is a hair-care routine as well that involves applying hair masks and hair oils. Follow the order of the routine to avoid upsetting your skin. How many times you have an “Everything Shower” depends on your skin type completely.
