Of course, there's nothing simpler than soaping up, a ritual as old as time. However, the reality is that everything matters—from setting the right water temperature to drying your skin and choosing the right soap for care. Here are some usage tips:
1. Prepare your skin by wetting it with water at a comfortable temperature, but not too hot. High temperatures can increase skin irritation and tingling. After showering, water evaporation from the skin's surface increases, leading to immediate dehydration.
2. Wet the Oppidum soap and rub it directly onto your skin. Focus on key areas where you'll be applying the soap: hands, chest, shoulders, lower back, thighs, and calves.
3. Lather the soap with your hands on your skin and distribute it all over your body. Skin-to-skin contact: apply the soap as gently as possible, avoiding friction and irritation that textile fibers can cause.
4. Leave the soap on your skin for a few seconds. This prolongs its cleansing effect and increases the absorption of the soap's natural glycerin by your skin, initiating the rehydrating and restorative care process.
5. Rinse with clean water, not too hot. Again, excessively high temperatures reduce the soap's benefits: it disrupts the production of sebum necessary for skin hydration and causes excessive moisture evaporation.
6. Dry your skin by gently patting it with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid rubbing too hard or scratching your skin with textile fibers: excessive friction removes the lipid layer left by the soap on your skin. This is especially important in winter when temperature contrasts heighten skin sensitivity.
