A trend called the everything shower is gaining momentum on social networks. He sees the shower as the equivalent of a spa. After all, in the bathroom we perform all the necessary rituals of cleansing, moisturizing and relaxing, among other things. Videos under the hashtag #everythingshower have already been viewed more than 400 million times on TikTok. While the trend of spending hours in the shower to unwind after a hard day seems pretty appealing, it’s not for everyone.
First, staying in the shower for long periods of time can increase the risk of skin dryness and irritation. Especially in the autumn-winter period, when the air outside is cold and the air inside is, on the contrary, dry. Secondly, hot and hard water disrupts the microbiome, which can lead to skin hypersensitivity. That’s why dermatologists believe many people benefit from showering just three times a week.
This washing regimen may be suitable for those with dry and sensitive skin, those who do not exercise every day, or those who work from home. If you shower more often, you may experience flaking or even eczema. This advice is not suitable for people whose lifestyle includes regular exercise. In this case, you need to shower every day. But here are some tips to help prevent dry skin:
– the duration of stay in the shower should not exceed 15 minutes;
– the water should be warm, not hot;
– Detergents should be gentle – shower oil, for example, is perfect. It will moisturize the skin and retain moisture.
