Roger & Gallet shower gels

You might be thinking that there isn’t much difference when it comes to products that wash your body in the shower or bath. As long as it rids your body of dirt, makeup, and bacteria, why worry about what form it comes in?

However, what you use to wash your skin can make a big difference in its texture, appearance, and cleanliness. For a refreshing and invigorating way to get yourself clean, you should buy shower gel.

Why Everyone Loves Shower Gel

For thousands of years, people have been cleaning themselves with bars of soap made from animal or vegetable fat. They come in a variety of shapes, sizes, and colours and may come scented or unscented. Just about everyone used bars of soap in the shower until shower gel came onto the scene.

One of the benefits of shower gel is that if you choose the right formula, your skin will be more nourished than it would be with soap. Bars of soap usually have a high pH which will have a drying effect on your skin. People with dry skin, sensitive skin, or skin affected by eczema might find that soap is too irritating for their skin.

Shower gels, on the other hand, are a more modern way to wash yourself without drying out your skin. They’re also more effective at cleaning your body than many traditional soaps, are easier to travel with, and less prone to drying out.  

Did you know Shower Gel & Body Wash are different?

They may seem like the same product, especially since they are both used to wash yourself in the shower, but body wash and shower gel are different products. The main difference comes down to the texture and consistency.

Shower gel has a firmer, gel-like consistency. Depending on the brand and formula, you can use shower gel to wash both your body and your hair. Body wash has a thinner consistency that is more like a liquid soap than a gel. Some body washes have a creamier consistency as well, making them more moisturising than other products.

Modern Rules Of Shower Gel

Before using shower gel on your hair, make sure that it’s formulated to do so without causing damage or dryness. You should also avoid cheap shower gels because the ingredients tend to be harsher and can strip your skin and hair of its natural moisture.

If you’re only using shower gel to wash your body, save this step until after you’ve washed and/or conditioned your hair. Soapy residue washes down your back when you wash your hair so you’ll want to soap up your body afterward to wash it away.

To get a good lather with your shower gel, use a loofah or washcloth. Applying shower gel to just your hands or skin will require more product than if you use a loofah.
