Soap Economics-The 2 Step Beauty Shower System

Have you ever come out of bath or shower feeling like you are not as clean as you would like to be? Some people shower twice a day yet they don’t get that feeling of being very clean. A good way to check the effectiveness of your shower routine is to wipe your face (or any part of your body) with baby wipes or a clean white napkin. A dark brown stain is evidence that you are not getting the job done.

It’s a problem because beauty products are very expense. Most of us can’t afford those really nice quality products. Yet we may spend much more money buying tubes, gels and creams to solve the problems created from poor shower habits.

The 2 Step Beauty Shower System will help you maintain clean healthy skin free of pimples, spots,  and infections while improving overall personal hygiene. The really good news is that it is cheaper in the long run.

Here’s what it will do:

-          It will help clean your body effectively with each bath

-          It will allow you save  money and use quality products of your choice

You will need:

-          A nice neutral (non-lightening) bar soap such as Dove or Eva (I use Dettol soap)

-          A high quality liquid bath wash or gel (it’s ok if it lightens, I use Neutrogena body wash)

-          Nice clean bath sponge or net sponge (it’s easier to clean your back with a net sponge)

-          Clean towel (please wash your bath towel every week if possible)

The process:

1)     Shower with ordinary water for about 3 minutes (helps you relax and moistens your skin)

2)     shower generously with bar soap (this helps removes the top layer of oil & dirt particles)

3)     Rinse until your body is free from soap and bubbles.

4)     Apply a very small quantity of your quality bath gel or wash (observe that it lathers very well)

5)     Rinse thoroughly with fresh water and dry off

Remember to use a moisturizing lotion to keep your skin from drying out.

Observe that you used a very small amount of your expensive quality product. I have found this method extends the life of my favourite Neutrogena wash and I enjoy its benefits for months without spending fortunes.
