Skin - the Astronaut's Spacesuit
Surprisingly, almost all barrier functions are concentrated in its very top and thinnest layer, traditionally considered "dead" (since it consists of cells that have lost their nuclei).
However, it turns out that this top layer is a strictly ordered and well-organized structure, similar to a liquid crystal.
Even our dismissive attitude towards WASHING leads to a systemic disruption of its integrity and, accordingly, to the development of chronic skin diseases!
In Japan, for example, there are six cleansing products. Ladies in our country would immediately name their favorite perfume or lingerie brand. The situation with cleansing products is different: "I wash with baby soap, it’s baby.... only micellar water, oil, toxic cleansers (containing surfactants, preservatives, mineral oils, fragrances), only water...." - I often hear.
Washing with poor products is like washing with dish soap "Fairy".
"Fairy" removes grease from pots, while a poor cleanser simply destroys the upper protective layer of the skin.
We are part of a biological system, and chemistry does not work on us! You can get beauty injections even once a week for the purpose of moisturizing the skin, BUT WITHOUT ESTABLISHING PROPER WASHING, there will be no results!
We wash in the morning and evening with milk or gel according to skin type. Then toner or micellar water.
The skin deserves gentle treatment.
