Washing your face may be the the most simplest act yet and is the least grooming action taken. Most women do not realize that it is necessary to clean wash their face at least twice daily. During the summer months, it is recommended that we wash our face 5-6 times per day. Here are few benefits that will show you the importance of washing your face:
1. The scorching heat of the sun makes our skin dry and dehydrated that we may get sun burned from over exposure. Washing the face with cool water throughout the day will keep the face hydrated.
2. Our skin produces natural oils. During the summer months we produce more oils that we normally would in their winter months. Washing your face helps to keep pores free from dirt, oil and sweat.
3. It will prevent summer acne and breakouts. Let’s face it, as much as we love the sun it can wreck havoc on our face. Those red prickly bumps and blemishes can be down right annoying.
4. When your skin is clean, it will absorb skincare products much easier. The products will penetrate better and more deeply into the skin.
5. You will maintain the coveted natural glow.
* Bonus: Try to wash your face with cold water. Cold water stimulates circulation by waking up lazy blood cells. This will lead to quicker healing of the skin, removal of poisons, and waste matter which leads to acne and removes all impurities from the skin.
