SOAP VS. FACE WASH : WHICH ONE IS BEST FOR YOUR FACE?

SOAP VS. FACE WASH :

 WHICH ONE IS BEST FOR YOUR FACE?

Your skin needs constant care for a natural, healthy glow. Your face, in particular, is a lot more delicate than the skin on the rest of your body. This is because the thickness of your skin varies. Since the skin on your face is much thinner, it needs gentle care. Therefore, it is essential to use the right skincare products for your face. 

When it comes to washing your face, generally you have two options – a soap or a face wash. Both will clean your face but there are differences in the way they do it. Soap is harsher whereas a face wash is gentler on your skin. Experts, therefore, suggest using a good face wash for your face. 

So is there an alternative to soap? Yes, there is! It’s a face wash. 

WHY FACE WASH?

When you use a face wash that is suited for your skin type, you can rest assured that it contains ingredients needed to keep your skin looking its best. 

A good, mild face wash does not take away the natural oils from your face. Instead, it helps to maintain the pH balance of your skin while removing dirt from the pores. Choose a face wash that suits your skin type -

• Oily skin

Is your skin oily and shiny? Then your best pick would be an oil-free face wash that helps you get rid of the excess oil while retaining the necessary moisture your face needs. 

• Dry skin

If your skin type is dry, you should go for a face wash that contains zero or fewer traces of sulphate. This will moisturize your skin and prevent it from being dry. 

• Sensitive skin

Individuals with sensitive skin should choose a non-comedogenic face wash that prevents clogging of pores and feels light on the face. 

BENEFITS OF FASHWASH:

You need a face wash. A really good one. Here are all the benefits associated with incorporating it into your routine:

1. It cleanse

Face washes help to remove the dirt, oil and urban pollutants that water alone can leave behind. If you wear makeup daily, then it’s essential to wash and cleanse your skin before bed. It thoroughly cleanses, without causing irritation, leaving only soothed and hydrated skin.

2. It exfoliates

Facewash doesn’t just rid your complexion of all the icky stuff, it also sweeps away dry skin and other debris, helping to reveal a fresh layer of skin beneath. Your face becomes more even-textured with a natural glow. 

3. It stimulates the circulation

The process of massaging face wash granules into your face helps to boost the flow of blood. It is also incredibly relaxing and therapeutic.

Start off your day with the Mild Wash Foam when you shower to cleanse and awaken your skin in the morning. Pat dry your face and apply Rose Toner all over your face which has cleansing properties,  maintains the skin's PH level and helps in revitalizing skin. Follow the toner  with a moisturise-rich day cream such as GARNIER LIGHT COMPLETE SERUM CREAM SPF19/PA+++ Cream, Enriched with Lemon extract and Vitamin C Serum which is know to fade spots, brightens skin, protect Skin from sun darkening and gives Beautiful, Natural and healthy glow to your skin.

WHY YOU SHOULD NOT USE SOAP?

Is soap good for the face? As dermatologists suggest, a soap bar is not suitable for use on the face. 

• Soap is alkaline-based, but your skin is acidic 

In contrast to alkaline-based soaps, your skin is naturally acidic and should have a pH level between 4 and 6.5, even if your skin type is oily. The alkaline nature of the soap bar can cause your face to become dry and strip away the natural moisture. If you apply soap regularly on face, it may turn flaky and itchy, or become prone to breakouts.

The natural oils secreted by the face act as a protective layer against environmental factors, like dust, pollution, and harmful UV rays. Washing your face with soap can leave it looking wrinkled, haggard, and dull. The harsh chemicals present in it may be useful in cleansing your body but certainly not the face. Your face has multiple pores and if proper care is not taken, it may be prone to blemishes, acne, and pimples. It leave patchy skin behind after use.

CONCLUSION: 

No matter if it’s spring, summer, autumn or winter, having a product with SPF is essential to maintaining healthy, happy skin. This is where our Biotique Bio Carrot SPF40+UVA/UVB Sunscreen and Garnier Light Complete Serum Cream comes in. With a unique formula that gives your skin a  soft texture, protects skin from harmful effects of the Sun and gives Beautiful, Naturaland HealthyGlowing skin.

Are Sheet Mask worth it?

          🌸NY BAE SHEET MASK🌱

1. WHAT IS A SHEET MASK?

Sheet masks are face-shaped sheet fabrics soaked in nutrition-packed solution called serum. The sheet is made up of variety of materials including papers, fibers or gel types. These sheet masks are different from facial masks (paste type) that you only need to apply, take off or pat in extra serum instead of washing the paste after applying and putting on other skincare products. Sheet mask is generally used once and it is individually packaged, making them fast, convenient, and easy to use.  

2. WHERE DID SHEET MASK ORIGINATE FROM?

Sheet masks originated from Japan and South Korea, known for their dedication on cosmetics and skin care. Today, sheet masks are widely popular in Asia as a whole. Sheet masks are recently changing the beauty industry and gaining popularity in the U.S by seeing various celebrities utilize sheet masks and post about it on their social media. 

3. HOW DOES SHEET MASK WORK?

There is a sheet fully soaked with concentrated serum, which consists of many beneficial ingredients to the skin such as hyaluronic acid and vitamins. These ingredients are in the water phase as dissolved. The sheet prevents quick evaporation of the water phase and extends the time frame the ingredients required to penetrate deep into the skin. This result in the sheet masks outperforming the effects of the traditional serum-type skincare even when applied once.

4.WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS?

Basically, sheet masks are inexpensive compared to going to a spa, convenient, easy to apply, and brings a glowing effect on your skin.

- Remove mask after 15-20 minutes and gently massage the Remaining essence into the skin.

When you are busy and barely have time to rest, sheet masks are great because you can use them even when you’re cleaning, cooking, reading or watching TV. The good thing is that, you don’t have to bother washing it off after applying!
• The sheets are one-size-fits-all, but since every face is not the same size or shape, it would be easier to start from the forehead and pat it softly as you come down to your face while lining up the holes for your eyes, nose, and mouth.You can use sheet masks as many times as you want throughout the day or week, but many recommend using it three times a week or once a day for extra care. 

6. WHAT INGREDIENTS ARE USED IN THE SERUM?

Depending on what function the sheet masks want to perform, the serum contains various ingredients that are commonly used, such as aloe vera and vitamin c, to more unusual ones such as pearl, snail extract, and seaweed.

However, NY Bae Sheet mask includes ingredients like Aqua,  Disodium EDTA, Glycerin,  Carbomer, Vitamin E, Tuber Megnatum Extract, etc.

Also, for prevention against bacteria/fungi contamination, most sheet masks contain chemical preservatives such as parabens and recently phenoxyethanol, which are not good for the skin.

7. WHAT MATERIALS ARE THE SHEETS MADE OUT OF?

Diverse types of fabric are used for the sheet masks. Four most used materials from worst to best: 

*Non-woven fiber – Inexpensive, difficult mobility, low capacity to deliver serum into the skin                                        

 * Cotton – Inexpensive, difficult mobility, low capacity to deliver serum into the skin (but better than the non-woven fiber)

 *Hydrogel – Little pricey, great absorption system, gel-type consistency, two separate parts (top and bottom) to apply on face, difficult mobility, fits the shape of the face well

*Bio-cellulose – Expensive, all-natural material, adheres to the skin well, better absorption properties, comfortable mobility.
