Skin Facial Cleansers

Using the right cleanser makes all the difference because it determines how your skin is going to react to everything else you put on it.  You'll want to avoid drying your face out because it causes problems a moisturizer can't correct. If you've been using a cold cream - something that is wiped off, this will clogg your pores and leave a film on the skin.  That can interfere with the moisturizer you use then.  If you've read information on toners, you'll realize that if you have a greasy face, you won't want to degrease it with harsh cleansers and toners either.  The best way to choose a facial wash is to use a gentle, water-soluble cleaner that is for normal to oily (that includes combination skin if you tend to have more oil in some areas), or normal to dry (that includes combination skin if you have a tendency to have dry spots).

 

This type of cleanser does three things: (1) it washes off makeup without drying the face, (2) it contains no synthetic irritants such as synthetic fragrance, (3) it is gentle to the skin and doesn't require a washcloth to wipe off, you can splash it off, although some may still prefer a soft cotton cloth.

 

Not only are water-soluble cleansers the gentlest way to clean your face, but they are also the most efficient.  What about Eye Makeup Remover? Many wonder if it is needed? I do believe it is necessary.  Stretching the skin to remove mascara and shadow can stretch the skin's elastic fibers, and cause the skin to sag sooner than you'd like. So we definately recommend using one.  See our Information Library for articles on skin conditions.
