The perfect facial cleanser for my skin: how do I choose it?
Daily facial cleansing is the basic step for keeping skin healthy and young-looking for longer. But do you know which is the best facial cleanser for you? In this post, we will help you to gain a better understanding of them, and to be able to recognize which is the best one for your skin, always based on the understanding that a facial cleanser should cleanse without irritating.
Whether we wear make-up or not, cleansing the face is vital for preventing future skin problems, such as premature aging, imperfections or blemishes.
As a rule, we should ideally cleanse twice a day, in the morning and at night, before proceeding with the usual beauty routine.
By cleansing the face, we remove dead cells and excess oil, we purify, and we get rid of all the environmental residues that accumulate on our skin throughout the day. In this way, we allow the skin to regenerate, clear and breathe naturally.
That is why purifying and cleansing your skin every day is an essential part of facial care, and vital for enabling cosmetic products that are applied afterwards to be well-absorbed. But can we use any cleanser to condition our skin? The answer is no. Each skin type has different needs and requires a range of various treatments.
In order to choose the right product to cleanse your skin, you should start by knowing which skin type you have. Does it redden easily? You have sensitive skin. Does your T-zone become shiny and the rest of the face dry out? You have combination skin. Does it flake and/or dry out easily? Your skin is dry or very dry. Shine, pores or blemishes? You have oily or very oily skin.
Now that you know your skin type, let’s move on to the second step: choosing the right facial cleanser.
There are various facial cleansers with different textures and functions. Therefore, water or gel cleansers are the most popular, due to their different uses and adaptability, and their availability for all skin types. Get to know their properties.
Water and Gel Facial Cleansers
Micellar Water is a major product for all brands, and the favorite cosmetic product of most women. Water-based and formulated with micelles, micellar water is an all-in-one product that, as well as deeply cleansing the skin, also tones and hydrates it.
Micelles are molecules that are able to attract facial dirt and sebum, isolate it, and transport it through the water, to remove it from the skin.
Micellar water does not drag dirt particles; it traps and completely removes them, while respecting the balance of the skin, making it suitable, in almost all cases, for even the most sensitive skin. And all without needing to rinse, which makes it an easy-application facial cleanser, suitable for the laziest of people.
We would categorize this type of cosmetic as suitable for all skin types.
How and when to use Micellar Water? Thanks to its countless benefits, it can be used daily in the beauty routine, before going to sleep and after waking up. It can also be used at any time of day to refresh the skin or to cleanse impurities and dirt particles deposited on the face.
With regards to application method, its use is so simple that you only need to apply the product to a cotton pad and wipe it over the skin, using light touches, from the center of the face outwards. The result? Fresh, cleansed skin that is free from impurities.
And if you could cleanse the skin while protecting it? Casmara Urban Protect Micellar Water is a water cleanser that cleanses and protects in just one step, creating an anti-pollutant shield against the 3 main types of contamination (ultraviolet light, air pollution and chemical agents), the perfect ally for urbanites!
Cleansing Gel is another type of facial cleanser, with a different formulation and texture that is suitable for all skin types.
This type of cleanser, which has a light and silky texture and transforms into a soap when worked over the face, cleanses and maintains the skin’s natural hydration balance.
The formulation of this type of product is normally made to deeply cleanse, deliver softness and hydration, to tone, and also to condition the skin.
Gentle and lightweight texture facial cleansers
3-In-1 Gel texture cleansers. CASMARA is opting for a revolutionary formula of multi-action facial cleansers that combine three products in just one step: cleanser, toner and make-up remover. Quick and easy!
A very effective all-in-one, these types of cleanser not only deeply cleanse the skin, but also remove make-up and tone. They are also suitable for cleansing and removing make-up from the eye area.
With their gentle and silky and texture, and remarkable softening properties, these cleansers condition and hydrate the face. The result is deeply cleansed, toned and extra soft skin.Choose the one that best suits your skin type!
How to use the cleansing gel? Gently wet the face with water. Deeply massage your complexion using circular movements so that the gel foams and penetrates deeper, removing all kinds of dirt and impurities. Focus on areas more prone to imperfections, such as the T-zone (nose, forehead and chin). Then rinse the face with cold or tepid water..
It is important to know how to treat sensitive skin in a more specific way. This type of delicate skin reacts badly to strong soaps and products containing alcohol or perfumes.
Thus, it should only be cleansed using 100% natural or hypoallergenic products that do not attack the skin, or, in short, products especially created for this skin type.
Sensitive Skin Cleanser is a good example: a hypoallergenic cleansing gel formulated with natural surfactants; a balanced formulation that respects the skin’s natural characteristics, while deeply cleansing.
Natural Marine Cleanser is also suitable for sensitive skin: a natural hydrating facial cleanser formulated with 100% natural active ingredients that are biocompatible. It deeply cleanses while respecting the skin, providing hydration.
Regular facial cleansing is very important for keeping skin beautiful and healthy, so never go to bed without washing your face and removing all make-up! Now do you know which cleanser is perfect for your skin?
