🌅 Morning Showering Might Be Harmful, Say Doctors

Bathing is a natural part of our daily routine, but experts now caution against taking showers in the morning, suggesting that it could be a mistake with potential effects on skin health—especially for those prone to acne or allergies.

💬 What Experts Say

According to Dr. Aragona Giuseppe, a medical advisor at Prescription Doctor, while morning showers can be refreshing and help you wake up, evening showers offer significant health benefits.

He explains that during the day, your skin and hair collect allergens, pollutants, bacteria, and sweat—especially in warmer months where pollen and chemicals in the air are more active.

🛏️ Why Evening Showers Are Better

When you go to bed without showering:

• Bacteria and allergens from the day transfer to your bed and sheets

• This can lead to nighttime allergies, skin irritation, and dryness

• Long-term effects may include clogged pores, itchiness, and acne outbreaks

✅ Benefits of Evening Showers:

• Removes dirt, sweat, and environmental pollutants

• Reduces the risk of skin breakouts and inflammation

• Keeps your bedding cleaner and improves sleep quality

• Soothes muscles and promotes relaxation before sleep

🧼 Final Tip:

If you’re used to morning showers for alertness, consider a quick rinse at night to clean your skin before bed, followed by a morning face wash for freshness.
