For body use in the sauna, wet your skin with warm water first, then take a small amount of the soap and work it into a lather directly on your skin or on a washcloth. The thick texture spreads easily when wet and creates a rich lather that can be used with massage movements across the body. The soap rinses cleanly without leaving a heavy residue, which is important in steam environments where buildup can be uncomfortable.
When using as a shampoo, apply to wet hair and scalp, focusing on the roots where oil tends to accumulate. The mandarin extract and neroli oil combination is formulated to leave hair lengths shinier while keeping the scalp feeling fresher - this can be particularly beneficial if your scalp becomes oily quickly. Work into a gentle lather and rinse thoroughly, being careful to avoid the eyes as with any scented cosmetic product.
In sauna conditions, where pores are open and skin is more receptive, you may find you need less product than with regular liquid soaps. The vitamin complex and citrus extracts are intended to leave skin feeling smoother and more refreshed after washing, which complements the post-sauna cooldown period.
If you experience any scalp sensitivity or irritation, reduce frequency of use and ensure thorough rinsing. The product contains essential oils, so pay attention to your individual tolerance for fragranced cosmetics.
