Like most things, there's a healthy balance.
Now celebrities—the tiny yet influential sector of the population who popularized juice cleanses and jade eggs—are touting the skin-care benefits of not washing. “You should not be getting rid of all the natural oil on your skin with a bar of soap every day,” Shepard argued. “It’s insane.” Or, as Gyllenhaal described his strategic non-showering: “helpful for skin maintenance.” I was admittedly skeptical until Mary L.
“Generally speaking, our skin and body is a remarkable system that does regulate and take care of itself,” Stevenson said. “Showering too much can alter your microbiome by changing the oily outer layer of protection.” Stevenson makes a distinction between showering with water only versus soaping head-to-toe. “There is a balance between removing dirt and grime and scrubbing away or getting rid of our natural layer of protection,” she said.
Color me similarly enlightened to learn that certain celebrities aren’t under-bathing their kids but that I may be. For the 6 to 11 set, that metric should be the minimum. Tweens and teens with “newly stinky pits” should begin showering daily and washing their faces twice per day. As not bathing becomes the celebrity trend du jour, some are noting that it reeks of privilege. “Lots of groups of people can’t afford to do all these weird once a week, bird bath things you are all opining about,” author Roxane Gay
