in soap can cause damage with over-use


'It's really important that you don't let that wash over your skin. I think you should avoid detergents wherever possible because they damage the skin.'

He explained that the top layer of the skin acts as a barrier. Using detergents can weaken it and allow allergens to enter.

'The top layer of the skin, is a skin barrier. It prevents water escaping and it prevents pathogens from getting in, which is bacteria, but it also prevents allergens getting in.
