使用手工皂会对皮肤造成不适吗?
有些人使用冷制皂后会出现皮肤干燥粗糙，起小痘痘等类似化妆品过敏的现象。这可能是因为长期使用含有大量化学合成界面活性剂的洗面乳，沐浴乳等。它们洗的时候不易冲洗干净，洗后残留在皮肤上虽然感觉滑滑的，其实皮肤的正常皮脂膜久而久之已被破坏。当冷制皂的弱碱性接触皮肤后，失去正常功能的皮脂膜无法在短时间内恢复酸碱平衡，所以才感觉干燥，紧绷，敏感皮肤甚至会排泄毒素而起小痘痘。
因此，建议刚开始使用冷制皂清洁时，尽量多用水冲洗，洗后用干净毛巾轻轻按拭皮肤吸收水分，然后使用温和的(最好是植物性的)化妆水及乳液保湿护肤。一般20-30天后皮肤会适应皂皂的，因为皮肤的更新奏起是28天左右。
