Why Soap Selection Is Important to Keeping Good Skin



At every soap aisle of many supermarkets, you'd see so many kinds of soap that sometimes, it's hard to choose which is good for your skin. Often, it's the price that we look at, but cheaper doesn't always mean good. Some soaps seem to have more of the additives than the soap itself. Otherwise, there's just soap but of the kind that's more suitable for washing your clothes. Either way, your skin can can be damaged instead of made to be better using these soaps.

For everyday and general use, a mild cleansing soap is enough. There shouldn't be too much perfume and if there is some used, it should ideally be from the natural ingredients themselves and not synthesized with a mineral petroleum base. Herbs, which are now typically used for specialty "gourmet" soaps are perfect if you know what you need. But then again, some extracts can be too harsh for sensitive skin - otherwise they can be too strong for the nose and the scents may not appeal to you or those around you. If you're not that experimental, stick to common fragrances that anyone can appreciate.

One of the best selling Nu Skin products is the Body Bar. It is such a hit because it isn't exactly soap. In fact it's 100% soapless! It looks like soap but it's not soap. Yet it cleanses like soap but so mildly and gentle that you can use it everyday and each time you do so, you condition your skin at the same time. It doesn't remove nutrients, but nourishes it and also help protect it from drying up. It's uplifting grapefruit scent also makes for a good bath experience.

The most amazing of all is that its natural ingredients - which include jojoba oil, aloe vera, allantoin, and Vitamin E are so safe they can be eaten. To demonstrate its palatability, Korean distributors actually ate the Body Bar with no ill effects! Of course, the Nu Skin body bar is not really meant to be eaten, but it drives the point that it's good for the skin.
