People bathe for various reasons. What is your reason? Some people bathe because it is like a sign of cleanliness. Some bathe out of necessity, while others bathe as a result of societal norms(the society expects you to bathe always).
We’re told by parents, friends and media that we have to regularly shave, moisturize, shower and shampoo to stay clean and smell fresh. But the irony of this is that showering often dries out your skin and removes essential oils.
Dermatologists say, the more you wash, especially in hot water, the more likely you are to dry out and irritate your skin. You could be washing away good bacteria that naturally helps your skin and make small cracks that can lead to skin infections.
Guess what?! Dermatologists recommend that you limit your shower time to 10 minutes every two or three days in lukewarm water. Who else is with me on this? Lol…
