The soap we use is highly responsible for the skin texture and glow on the upper layers of the skin. Some soaps are very harsh and damage the collagen properties of skin. Over time, they remove all the natural oils from the skin and make the skin very rough and aged. The weather conditions add to this and further damage the skin. Several factors like exposure to sun, health conditions, bathing water etc make the skin darker and dull. There are several soaps now available in the Indian market which are recommended by many dermatologists and many women claim that they work for their skin. Some people may find little or no change after use, but most of them can get good results after regular use. Switching your hard water with drinking water on face can have an added benefit.
