Cleansing<\/a> is the most vital step in our skincare routine. A deep cleanse<\/strong> every morning and night will not only calm and hydrate our skin<\/strong> barrier<\/strong>, but it will also rid your skin of excess oils, makeup and dirt<\/strong> that accumulates on your face throughout the day. Not only that but washing your face will allow your skin to properly absorb all the skincare products<\/strong> that you layer on afterwards. That is why cleansing is essential<\/strong>. The right face wash can help to alleviate several concerns from a damaged barrier to acne.<\/span><\/p>\n

Dry skin<\/b><\/h2>\n

If you have dry skin<\/a>, a face cleanser will better keep your skin barrier moisturized and healthy<\/strong>. A face cleanser is made to purify, hydrate, and soothe your skin<\/strong>. The texture will be creamy, milky, gel-like, or even watery.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Look for formulas with hydrating ingredients like hyaluronic acid or glycerin<\/strong>. It is not about finding something that is full of ingredients but rather using a simple and effective formula. Avoid cleansers with fragrance, foaming agents and essential oils<\/strong> which can all trigger irritation and sensitivity in those with dry skin.<\/span><\/p>\n

Three types of cleansers textures are particularly good for this skin type:<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  • Oil cleanser<\/b>. A gentle way to clean your skin and maintain the skin\u2019s balance<\/strong>. Oil cleansers are effective because they are filled with oil particles that attract and break down<\/strong> makeup, sebum, oil, sweat and dirt on your face without interfering with your skin\u2019s barrier function. Oil attracts other oils and breaks them down by dissolving them without drying your skin<\/strong>.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Micellar water. <\/b>By pouring the water onto a cotton round you can cleanse your entire face and remove all traces of makeup, without rinsing<\/strong>. Micellar water contains micelles<\/strong> that absorb and remove makeup, sweat, oil and dirt like a magnet without drying out your skin.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Cleansing milk.<\/b> It dissolves makeup and will restore moisture and balance<\/strong> back to your skin. Use a small amount on a cotton pad and gently wipe your face to remove any makeup, oil or sweat from your face.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
