Hand Hygiene – Protecting against infection
It is incredibly important to use adequate cleansers and cosmetics in your regular hand washing routine. Sebamed brings you skincare products with a pH value of 5.5 not only to cleanse the skin, but to also preserve its natural protective coating and prevent irritation and drying. Sebamed is here with the ultimate handwashing routine, using gentle products with mild formulas, which will not disturb the natural pH balance of your skin.
Firstly,let’s delve into the term “soap”.
The common term “soap” is used generically for skin cleansing products across the UK, and you may have noticed that all sebamed products are in fact soap-free!
So, what does this actually mean? Wondering how you can clean without soap? Don’t panic! Sebamed products are in no way inferior to soap!
This is because Sebamed products still have the exact same surfactant properties as soap and therefore work just as well against infection, by facilitating the removal of pathogens (bacteria and fungi as well as viruses). In fact, unlike soap-based products, Sebamed has a balanced pH value which maintains the protective acid mantle of the skin and saves hands from becoming dry and irritated by frequent hand washing.
How to wash your hands effectively
Handwashing protects against infections but only if the hands are actually washed properly.
It is more important than ever to be washing hands thoroughly and frequently, please find below an outline of the recommended hand washing process outlined by The World Health Organization, May 2009.
The recommended hand washing process is as follows:
(Taking roughly 40 to 60 seconds)
1. Rub your palms in a circular motion
2. Rub palm to palm with intertwined fingers
3. Rub your left palm with your right palm with your fingers intertwined and vice versa
4. Rub the back of your fingers with the opposite palm
5. Rub your left thumb in a circular motion with your right palm and vice versa
6. Rub the gathered fingers of the right hand against the left palm and vice versa in a circular motion
7. With your right hand, rub the part around the wrist in a circular motion and vice versa
Sebamed’sTop Two
We are delighted to share with you two of Sebamed’s best-selling cleansers! These are their top two Soap-free Hand Hygiene product picks for maintaining good, consistent hand hygiene.
Liquid Face and Body Wash (200ml)
Sebamed’s Liquid Face and Body Wash gently cleanses pore deep to leave a unique after wash feeling – skin is left clean, soft, and supple. Suitable for face and body cleansing, it is well suited as the therapy supportive skin care for skin infections, acne, atopic eczema, psoriasis, contact dermatitis and skin mycosis.
Sebamed’s classic cleansing bar offers mild and thorough pore-deep skin cleansing. Created with the same pH value of healthy skin, it supports and protects the natural barrier function of the skin’s acid mantle. Just lather the bar in wet hands and rinse thoroughly!
