The feeling of sand clinging to the skin is annoying, but maybe you are also… aiding in this!
The fine sand beach is always as beautiful as a dream. But bringing sand home is a nightmare! But want to blow sand is not easy, we have to know the principle of its operation.
Since sand is an extremely fast absorbent , the Silicon dioxide present in the sand will adhere to the water molecules. So anything wet like a towel, paws, hair, shoes and dog – it’s all covered with sand.
When the water evaporates, the sand remains on your hair, clothes, body crevices, etc. By the time you get home, some sand will fall on the carpet, but your sweat will suck it up again.

Sounds hard to get rid of sand, doesn’t it? But you can “relieve the burden” by reducing the humidity of your body and items.
First, keep slippers and bags as simple and airy as possible. And remember to choose materials that are less absorbent. For towels and some items of clothing, you can pre-wash them by hand with fabric softener, which helps them absorb moisture better.

Currently, there are hydrophobic sprays for shoes, so be sure to check to make sure the ingredients are not toxic. In addition, after a few hours you have to spray again, because the moisture barrier only has a short-term effect.
First, if you use sunscreen, moisturizer… then remember to apply and spray on your skin in a dry place, preferably before going out. This not only gives the cream enough time to work, but also ensures that the skin is not too wet and absorbs the sand before you even get into the water.
Second, when you have finished bathing, watch the time when the waves hit the shore and follow. Because if the wave is receding, it will bring sand, so of course you also… embrace the sand.
When applying powder to the skin, the sand dries quickly and is easily brushed away.
Important: use baby powder ! Baby powder absorbs moisture faster than sand. So when applying powder to the skin, the sand will dry quickly and be easily brushed away.
Finally, remember to find a place to wash the sand off your body before going home. If you bring your dog, give it a bath. Because the sand particles stick to the skin, the hair can make the dog feel uncomfortable.
