Why a mild hand soap is important

Frequent handwashing can strip oils from the outer layer of your skin, which can make your hands feel dry and tight. This is also because dirt and residues affect, among other things, the skin’s own lipids. These are responsible for a healthy skin barrier. Therefore, it’s worth choosing a mild hand soap if your skin feels dry and sensitive. The gentle formulation of our liquid hand soap thoroughly cleanses your hands and removes dirt and particles. At the same time, it minimizes the strain on the skin’s natural protective barrier, as it was developed to interact less intensely with the components of the skin barrier. For stressed hands, this means gentle cleansing with a pH-neutral soap and a pleasant feeling after washing your hands—even before applying the right hand cream.

How does a mild hand soap work?

The Tal liquid soap contains, among other ingredients, edelweiss extract. This hardy Alpine plant has antioxidant, protective, and nourishing properties. It grows under intense sunlight, freezing cold, and extreme temperature fluctuations. In doing so, it develops active compounds such as polyphenols, which are believed to have antioxidant properties. Studies show that components of edelweiss extract can neutralize free radicals and counteract oxidative stress. For our products, the antioxidant active ingredients are of particular interest. In our liquid soap, they are part of the formulation designed for gentle cleansing and care.

Hand cream and hand soap work together

Hand cream and hand soap work together

Even a mild hand soap cannot completely replace follow-up care. If you wash your hands frequently, work with water, or have dry skin, your skin needs moisture and lipids. After washing your hands with our Swiss soap, the right hand cream can help support the skin’s protective barrier and promote softness. It’s best to minimize stress on your skin even while washing your hands: Use lukewarm water instead of hot water, and keep your hands in or under the water only as long as necessary. Then pat them dry with as little rubbing as possible.

What does “pH-neutral soap” mean?

pH-neutral and skin-neutral are two different things. In a chemical sense, neutral refers to a pH value of about 7. A pH value of 5.5 is often described as skin-neutral. Healthy skin is naturally slightly acidic, and its pH level is usually between 4 and 6. Conventional soaps are often more alkaline and can have a pH level ranging from 8.5 to 11. This means they can slightly raise the skin’s pH level, thereby disrupting the balance of the skin’s protective acid mantle. The skin loses moisture more easily and feels dry after washing. Our pH-neutral soap prevents this from happening. Especially when washing your hands frequently, this hand soap ensures that your skin isn’t subjected to additional stress and that you don’t experience dryness or tightness.
