Finding a Cleanser for your Skin Type

Finding a Cleanser for your Skin Type - SkinShop

Cleansing is a vital step in any skincare routine, setting the foundation for the products you apply afterward. While cleansing removes sebum, dirt, and pollutants, it also plays a crucial role in maintaining a healthy complexion. Understanding your skin type and selecting the appropriate cleanser can make a world of difference in how your skin feels and looks. Read on to find the perfect cleanser for your skin type.

Cleansing for Dry Skin: Dry skin lacks sebum and often feels rough and tight. To address these concerns, opt for a cleansing milk or oil. These formulations effectively cleanse without stripping the skin of its natural oils, providing gentle nourishment and softening dry patches.

Cleansing for Sensitive Skin: Sensitive or temporarily sensitised skin requires extra care during cleansing. Choose a gentle cleanser that maintains the skin's pH balance and doesn't cause dryness. Milk cleansers are often well-suited for sensitive skin, but foam and gel cleansers can also be suitable depending on their formulation. Micellar waters, which require no water to work, can be an excellent option for those with highly sensitive skin, as they minimise potential dryness.

Cleansing for Oily Skin: Oily skin benefits from gel or foam cleansers that effectively remove impurities and excess sebum without leaving a heavy residue. Look for cleansers containing ingredients like Salicylic Acid, known for their ability to gently exfoliate and decongest the skin, effectively treating blackheads.

Cleansing for Combination Skin: Combination skin often presents a unique challenge, as it can be both dry and oily in different areas. To address this, opt for a multi-faceted approach. For slightly oilier areas, gel or foam cleansers work well, while drier areas benefit from oil or milk cleansers. Additionally, consider using a mild toner or serum after cleansing to minimise any potential irritation in sensitive areas.
