Large parts of India are experiencing intense heat wave. It is only March but lakhs of people across various states of India are struggling to deal with harsh rays of sun, dehydration, sunstrokes and skin issues like prickly heat. While it is universally advised not to step out unless it is absolutely necessary, truth is every now and then, one does have to step out, even in the blistering heat. That means we have to expose ourselves to the extreme summer heat and face its aftermath.
One way to deal with the problem is to take to soaps that come packed with cooling agents such as Menthol. These specialised soaps, apart from removing dirt and bacteria from the skin, also help in leaving behind a cooling effect. They help us feel refreshed and cool.
Many of the big brands such as Fiama and Dettol have products in this category and so do relatively smaller brands like The Man Company. Many of them come with the goodness of peppermint (it has a cooling effect which helps sooth irritation) and spearmint (this too imparts a cooling sensation) among others.
