Is hot water good for the skin? Of recent the weather is becoming cold and I am using hot water to have my bath but I notice that I am beginning to have wrinkles on my forehead and under my eyes. Is it the effect of the hot water?

i dont thnk that would cause wrinkling. But u shouldn't in bathe in extremely hot water.

No its not the hot water,you're getting old

Won't we all. It is better to age gracefully.

it could dry out your skin if you use it continuously. because it will remove the natural moisture and oil. and if you stay in longer and use harsh soap

how about warm/luke water?

Exactly what I'm thinking. Cause of recent I am noticing wrinkles that were never there and I realize that I am using hot water of late.

@poster, i personally think its not advisable especially if its too hot like someone suggested lukewarm is preferable & i think it cld cause wrinkly of the skin since hot water does strip the skin of moisture which leads to dryness which cld lead to wrinkles, on days when im really cold i definitely mix with a lil hot water but i certainly dont make a habit of it,

i use very hot water,i mean steaming,i leave the bathroom mirrors all fogged up,me mum is always like this pikin are u trying to remove chicken feathers with wateer this hot

Bathing with hot water is bad for the body. I noticed a change after bathing with lukewarm water just these past two days.

I have been taking bath with hot water for ages and I don't have any wrinkles.

age is knocking darling

^^^^^

doesn't have to be "wrinkles". dry skin is the main issue. that you dont see it now (dry skin) doesnt mean it would come knocking later. esp if its something you continuously use.


sophy, i think maybe your skin is dry and with dry skin every little line/wrinkles will seem more pronounce.

Likewise. If the water isn't hot . . . I don't use it.
I even do the dishes with HOT water even though I wear gloves. My mum must be tired of complaining because she don talk tire.

Don't use hot water on your face
Hot water dilates blood vessels, which over time will stretch and loosen your skin. Hot water also dries skin out. Use lukewarm to cold water to wash your face and neck. My morning ritual? I put an ice cube in a small piece of cloth (to avoid breaking capillaries) and gently stroke my face, especially around the eyes. I do this right after I've had my day's first glass of water, almost immediately after I wake up.

and you don't have wrinkles?

Even if one is not wrinkled, it makes one look of age.

lol, yeah we all look half our age. I guess it depends on one's skin texture.

Warm water is ok. And good for your health. It can remove your tired as well.

Hot water bathing and ex-foliation is great because it opens up all the pores in your body and cleanses as u scrub. It also cleans very well.Cold water cools u down, and is good for ur scalp and hair, prevents flaking and dry skin.

There is difference between Hot water and warm water...Of course I don't expect any normal human to bathe or shower with hot water. The last time I tried tried it, sincerely I ran out of the bathroom
