Let’s begin with washing our faces, we wash, we put warm or hot water on the face, causing the pores to open. The allows all of your skin-care products that you apply afterwards, as in your cleanser, toner, exfoliator, to seep into the pores. Or take a hot shower, it opens the pores as well. Then apply your skin-care products. It’s like washing the face as soon as you get out of a hot shower. If it’s steamy, like a sauna, then your pores are wide open. What do some people do afterwards? Place cold water onto their pores, to close them. Typically, when you are about to finish your showing, you should use cool water to close the pores on your skin and scalp. This also helps to create shiny, healthy hair.
Now, dipping the face into ice cold water, here’s the benefits. It closes the pores. Tightens the pores. It keeps wrinkles and fine lines at bay. The elasticity in skin remains tight, the skin remains wrinkle-free, fine lines-free. Elasticity in the skin is like an elastic band. What happens when the elastic band is stretched? It gets loose.
