Whats better for the human skin, washing the face in warm water, cold water, or hot water?

Answer 1

Lukewarm water, because it relaxes the body, reduces stress and promotes good sleep.

Answer 2

Wash you're face with cold water first then, use warm water. The cold water opens your pores and the warm close them.

Answer 3

Hot water may be too harsh and drying on the skin. Cool water will not remove oil as effectively as warm water.

Answer 4

It doesn't make any difference as long as the hot water doesn't burn you. Warm water is by far the most comfortable, hence you will do the best job cleansing the skin.

While cleansing is a necessary part of acne care, it plays only a moderate role. Other medications are needed in most cases.

As far as ageing is concerned, wrinkles can be minimized by limiting sun exposure and tobacco. Just compare the skin of women in their 40's and 50's who are smokers and non-smokers; and those who constantly are exposed to the sun and those who are not.

Answer 5

I think for cleansing purposes it's best to use warm water while actually washing the face, with soap or cleanser, whatever you use. Because it opens up the pores and allows the cleanser to do its job. I believe you should also splash your face with cold water when you're finished, to close the pores back and up and leave you with a nice, tight, fresh, clean face.

Answer 8

Best to do it in a hot shower..the steam will open your pores and then use a gently wash on your face to get inside those pores.

Answer 9

Answer 10
