Acid Mantle: What It Is, What It Does, Maintenance Tips, And More

It's actually not that difficult to take care of your coat. The most important lesson we can teach you is to be gentle and kind. Since your acid mantle occurs naturally, you don't need to do anything proactive to encourage its formation.

Instead, just pay attention to the cleansers you use - make sure they don't get too sticky (note: your skin should never "peel" after washing; just clean, hydrate, and refresh). You can also reevaluate how often you wash your face . Washing more than necessary can be just as harmful as washing your face or body. A good rule of thumb is to always wash your face before bed, but the rest will depend on your skin's needs. When it comes to your body, here is our advice on how often to shower .

Regarding excessive use of scrubs and effective products: "The most important advice is: less is more." You want to do just enough exfoliants to increase cell turnover and reveal fresh, new skin, "says Dr. Ife Rodney, Certified Dermatologist and Founder of Eternal Dermatology . "However, be careful not to scratch or damage your skin if you abuse these devices or products."

You can also use moisturizers to your advantage by using products formulated with ingredients that support the barrier, respect biomass, and balance pH. Look for products like ceramides, vegetable oils, antioxidants, shea butter, and pre-, pro-, and postbiotics .
