Find the Best Cleanser for Your Skin

Foam cleanser or wash gel? With or without scent? The large variety of different facial cleansers can quickly become overwhelming. Here’s how you can find the perfect cleanser that suits you and your skin – in just a few steps.

Why cleansing is important for beautiful skin

Regardless of your skin type, your skincare routine should include a quality cleanser to be effective. It is essential to remove dirt and impurities, so the ingredients of your other skincare products can absorb better into the skin. But which product is the right one for you? There are so many different product types and textures. We want to help you find the most suitable cleanser for you.

How to: Cleanse your face

Cleansing is important, there’s no question about that. Here’s what you should keep in mind:

  • Cleanse your skin twice a day. Sure, you should always remove your make-up before bed. But it is also important to clean your skin in the morning to get rid of sebum build-up, sweat, excess oil and dirt. Water alone will not do the trick. Pro tip: Exfoliate once or twice a week after cleansing to get rid of any dead skin cells.
  • Keep at it! No matter how long the day was, removing your make-up properly in the evening is an absolute must. 
  • Make sure to rinse off your cleanser with lukewarm water.
  • Always dry your face with a clean towel. The gentlest way is to dab the towel on the skin, without rubbing.

Don’t forget about toner!

Your cleansing routine should always include a facial toner that suits your skin type. When your skin comes into contact with water, its pH level changes, which can lead to irritation or a feeling of tightness. A facial toner restores the skin’s natural pH and supplies the skin with beneficial ingredients – with anti-aging properties, for example. A great side effect is that any residues of dirt and make-up can be easily removed.
