Dermatologists recommend giving up loofahs in the shower for the sake of skin health.
The habit of scrubbing the skin until it squeaks can lead to serious problems. Experts explained why hands are better than any sponge and how to properly care for a washcloth if you are not ready to give it up.
Why is the washcloth banned?
Dermatologists admit that in everyday life they wash simply with their hands, without washcloths or harsh sponges. Active friction damages the upper layer of the skin, disrupting its natural protective barrier. This leads to dryness, irritation, and even inflammation. People with sensitive skin, acne, or dermatitis should be especially cautious—mechanical impact can cause serious harm to them.
How to use a washcloth safely?
If you are not ready to completely give up the accessory, it is important to follow simple rules. After each use, the sponge must be thoroughly dried. A damp environment is an ideal place for bacteria and mold to thrive. It is recommended to store the washcloth only in a dry place, and it should be washed at least once a week. These measures will help maintain skin health and avoid unpleasant consequences. The choice is yours: the comfort of habit or healthy skin.
