Of course, there's nothing simpler than lathering up, as has been done since time immemorial. However, the reality is that every step matters, from setting the water temperature to drying your skin and choosing the right soap for care. Here are some usage tips:
1. Prepare your skin by wetting it with water at a pleasant temperature, but not too hot. Elevated temperatures can increase skin irritation and tingling. After showering, higher temperatures can also lead to more water evaporation from the skin's surface, causing immediate dehydration.
2. Wet the Oppidum soap and rub it directly onto your skin. Focus on key areas where you'll be applying the soap: hands, chest, shoulders, lower back, thighs, and calves.
3. Lather the soap with your hands on your skin and spread it across your body. Skin to skin: lather gently to avoid friction and irritation that can be caused by textile fibers.
4. Leave the soap on your skin for a few seconds. This extends its cleansing action and enhances the absorption of the soap's natural glycerin by your skin. This is where the rehydrating and restorative care begins.
5. Rinse with clean water, not too hot. Again, too high a temperature will reduce the benefits of your soap: it disrupts the production of sebum, which is necessary for skin hydration, and causes excessive moisture evaporation from the skin.
6. Dry your skin by patting it with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid rubbing too hard or scratching your skin with textile fibers: excessive friction removes the lipid film left by the soap on the skin. This is especially important in winter when temperature contrasts can heighten skin sensitivity.
