Let the everything shower take over your wash routine. This complete head-to-toe ritual is designed to leave you feeling refreshed, moisturized and truly pampered.
To master the everything shower, start with a high-quality body scrub to exfoliate and prep your skin. Eha Urbsalu, Founder of Viking Beauty Secrets, says that for dry skin, gentle exfoliation is key. She recommends using natural textures to smooth without stripping.
"Exfoliating removes buildup so your skin can fully absorb the nourishment from oils and creams, rather than letting it sit on the surface," Urbsalu said.
Swap your regular body wash for a hydrating, creamy formula that locks in moisture. Don't forget to nourish your hair with a rich shampoo and a deep conditioning treatment. For sensitive or eczema-prone skin, Melanie Abeyta, Aesthetic Nurse Practitioner and Owner of Harmony Aesthetics Center, recommends choosing a fragrance-free product with soothing ingredients such as colloidal oatmeal, allantoin or niacinamide.
"Cream-based cleansers or cleansing oils are better than scrubs for these skin types, which can be easily irritated," Abeyta said. "People with very dry skin benefit from richer oil-based washes while those with normal skin may only need a lighter hydrating wash."
The final, crucial step happens post-shower: while your skin is still damp, apply a rich body oil or lotion to seal in all the moisture. People of all skin types should avoid formulas containing harsh or irritating ingredients that can worsen dryness rather than relieve it, according to Valerie Aparovich, a biochemist and certified cosmetologist-aesthetician at OnSkin.
