Shower gels, a clean winner for bathing...
Soap bars may not be the clean winner for bathing.
Shower gels are a relatively new alternative to the more traditional cake of soap. Gels are both strong and concentrated, making them especially useful when they combine with the pulsating water and steam in the shower. Since shower gels are liquid, they can hold vitamins, alpha hydroxyl acids, and other elements that benefit the skin, which bar soaps do not. Some shower gels also contain fragrances that provide a pleasant scent that is heightened by the heat of the shower. If you don't give shower gels a try, their benefits could slip right through your hands! |
