After a long, hard day, we can all use some Bath Magic. More than just making us clean, it can remove the chemical and emotional pollution of the outside world while it soothes and refreshes us. Sometimes, after a hard day, a nice long bath can make everything all right.
Some people like a hot bath; others prefer cool or tepid. Each have their advantages. Aching muscles and the discomforts of a cold adore a nice hot bath. Hot baths, however, can strip the skin of its oils. This can be prevented by adding a nice bath oil to the tub. Baby oil works well for this.
A cool bath is good for skin problems. A sunburn can be soothed by adding a few tablespoonfuls of baking soda to the water. Poison ivy and other rashes are soothed in the same way. Hot and humid weather calls for a nice cool bath.
Moisturize your skin after each bath with a cream or lotion that corresponds to your skin type. Choose cream for oily, dry, or normal skin. Before you buy, read the ingredients list on the label. If it contains long, chemical names you can’t pronounce or has artificial coloring or scent, pass it by. Find a cream with ingredients you recognize, and that doesn’t test the product on animals. That’s good karma for your skin.
You should use the same care when buying soap and shampoo. Both should have natural, healthy ingredients and not have chemicals or animal products. Unless you have very oily hair, one application of shampoo about the size of a quarter in your palm is sufficient, and always rinse thoroughly. Truly clean hair is shiny, bouncy, and beautiful. Use quality, natural bath products and your skin and hair will love you for it, and thank you by looking better than ever.
