How do I use Mesh Sponge in my skincare routine
Mesh sponges have taken the skincare world by storm, promising a deeper, more invigorating cleanse. But are you making the most of this innovative tool in your routine? In this guide, we'll dive into the intricacies of using Ivy Nat mesh sponges for skincare, ensuring you get the most out of this seemingly simple yet transformative accessory.
Soak the Sponge:
Begin by soaking your mesh sponge in warm water. Allow it to absorb the water and become soft. This step ensures that the sponge is pliable and ready for use.
Apply Cleanser:
Apply your preferred body wash to the damp mesh sponge. The sponge will help lather the cleanser, making it more effective in cleaning your skin.
Gentle Exfoliation:
Using circular motions, gently exfoliate your body. Pay extra attention to areas with rough or dry skin. The sponge's texture will help remove dead skin cells, promoting smoother and softer skin.
Rinse Thoroughly:
After exfoliating, rinse the mesh sponge and your skin thoroughly with warm water. Ensure that all cleanser is removed from both your skin and the sponge.
Pat Dry:
Gently pat your skin dry with a clean towel. Avoid harsh rubbing.
Moisturize:
Follow up with your regular moisturizer. Exfoliation can temporarily leave your skin more receptive to hydration, making it an ideal time to apply moisturizer.
Clean and Store:
Rinse the mesh sponge thoroughly after each use, squeezing out excess water. Allow it to air-dry completely before storing it in a cool, dry place. Regular cleaning and proper storage help maintain the sponge's longevity.
Frequency:
The frequency of use depends on your skin type and sensitivity. It's generally recommended to exfoliate 1-3 times a week for most skin types. Adjust the frequency based on your skin's response.
Remember to be gentle during the exfoliation process, especially if you have sensitive skin. If you experience any irritation, reduce the frequency of use or discontinue use if necessary.
