Why To Use Ubtan Instead Of Soap On Your Skin?

Why To Use Ubtan Instead Of Soap On Your Skin? It’s Time to Choose Your Cleanser Wisely!

Since ancient times, Skincare has been a part of personal hygiene for both men and women. Everyone wishes to have clear, clean skin. The problem is when people think only soap can provide clean skin. Most of us use soap while taking a shower without even realizing the harmful effects the soap can have on our skin.

Soap can remove the natural oils present on the skin. The soap contains sodium lauryl sulfate, which could harm the skin. It also contains other chemicals like caustic soda, artificial fragrances, preservatives, etc., that can cause further damage.

There are many reasons why we should stop using soap on our skin. We will try to understand each reason in detail in this blog.

Damages and Dries Up the Skin

The harmful chemicals like triclosan, lye, and certain dyes like D & C Yellow 11 in the soap damage the skin as our skin is soft and sensitive, especially the skin on our face. The caustic acid in soap rips off the natural oils from the skin, making it dull and dry.

Regular use of soap makes the skin prone to different types of infections and may also lead to wrinkles. The natural lipids present in our skin keep the skin hydrated and healthy. Using soap washes away the natural lipids on the skin, making the skin prone to bacterial and viral infections. 

Disturbs the pH balance

It is necessary to balance the skin's pH level between 4 and 6.5 to maintain healthy skin. The invisible acid mantle acts as a protective acidic layer that protects the skin from harmful pathogens such as bacteria, viruses, and other pollutants. But using soap on your skin throws off the pH balance, which can lead to skin irritation, acne, and other problems.

Blocks the Pores

Most soaps contain fatty acids that accumulate on the skin’s surface, blocking the pores, which eventually leads to various skin problems like blackheads, breakouts, acne, and other infections. 

Removes the Natural Vitamins

The essential vitamins that keep the skin fresh and healthy are gradually removed if soap is used on the skin. Vitamin D is essential for the skin as it keeps the skin healthy. Vitamin D is damaged by the harsh chemicals present in the soap. 

Kills the Good Microbes

Our skin contains some good bacteria that fight infections on our skin. For healthy skin, it is important to maintain the delicate microbiome or the ecosystem of healthy microorganisms living on the skin.

They prevent external microbes that cause serious skin infections by competing for nutrients, stimulating immune attacks against them, or secreting toxic chemicals to kill them. Frequent use of soap kills the good bacteria, causing several skin issues. 

Most of us have grown up witnessing the use of home remedies and ayurvedic practices for skin care. Since ancient times, ubtan has been a part of the skincare regime. Ubtans made from natural ingredients were used as scrubs to clean and detoxify the skin.

The use of ubtan instead of soap is a better option. Ubtan will not only clean the skin but also nourish it with its natural properties, unlike soap, which contains harmful chemicals. Ubtan is a magical formula that makes your skin healthy and rejuvenated. 

There are several benefits to using Ubtan Instead Of Soap on the skin. We can certainly discuss some of them.

Comprises Natural Ingredients

Ubtans are made of 100% natural ingredients, inspired by Ayurveda. The mixture of Ubtan is enriched with the goodness of nature, making it a natural cleanser.

Using ubtan instead of soap can be the ultimate solution for your skin. It naturally cleanses the skin by removing the dirt and impurities that have accumulated on it.

The use of ubtan can remove dark spots and wrinkles. It can also make your skin even-toned and healthy. Ubtan doesn’t disturb the natural pH balance, unlike soaps, hence reducing wrinkles. It naturally hydrates the skin, keeping it moist and smooth throughout. 

Removes Body Hair

Ubtan has another added benefit. The natural ingredients present in ubtan are proven to remove body hair. A gentle scrub against the direction of hair growth weakens the follicle and eventually reduces hair growth. 

Ubtans have been used since the beginning of time.
