The basis of healthy skin is proper cleansing

We hear almost every day how important skin cleansing is, yet we tend to neglect this obligatory activity of a few minutes a day. However, beautiful skin is based on cleanliness, which nowadays can no longer be achieved by using pure water.

In the days of our grandmothers, it may have been enough to wash our faces with water, but nowadays our skin is exposed to so much dirt and cosmetics that we need to put serious emphasis on cleansing. Many surveys show that although we women are able to spend a fortune on creams, we do not consider skin cleansing cosmetics to be so important. However, it is important to know that no matter how expensive and quality your face cream is, if your skin has not been thoroughly cleansed, expensive active ingredients cannot pass through the dirt.

Nowadays we have many products at our disposal, so we have something to choose from, all based on skin type, age and comfort.

Soap

The oldest alternative is soap, which is experiencing a renaissance again. However, it is worth being careful with it, because only certain skin types bear the mild or stronger drying effect of soap.

Face wash milk

Perhaps the most universal cleanser, with countless variations available to offer alternatives for all skin types.

Face wash gel

One of today’s popular products is foaming remover or soap-free soap. It is the perfect choice for those who like a product that is foaming and at the same time gives a real feeling of cleanliness, but their skin cannot stand the drying effect of traditional soap.

Face wash foam

More recently, cleansers are also available in foam form, which gently cleanses the skin.

Eye shadow remover

The most machine-like piece of ladies’ evening rituals, with the help of which makeup can be removed. This product is also available in several forms, because it can be found in gel version or in two-phase oil-based version.

Scrub

Which is needed not only by our facial skin, but also by our body on a regular basis. With its help, dead horn cells can be removed, which prevents active substances from entering the skin. That is why it is worth peeling once a week to renew our skin. Its most commonly used form is the mechanical version, which exfoliates with its abrasive properties. Enzymatic peelings dissolve ceramide between horn cells, while alpha hydroxy acids exfoliate to rid excess cells.

Tonic

A finishing and indispensable part of cleansing is toning. An important feature of facial tonics is that they restore the normal pH level of our skin after cleansing. This is important because our skin’s own defense system can function best in the normal pH range, and we break it down during cleansing. Optimizing protection and normal skin functions, as well as surface hydration, are the main functions of this tonic. Today, you don’t have to worry about toners drying your skin, because there are many non-alcoholic versions available that are specific to your skin type.

When cleansing the face, you can also use small practices, such as washing with hot and cold water. With this method, we can train our skin and provide pink healthy skin even early in the morning. For exfoliation, you can use a soft, specially designed brush, or you can use peel-off masks, which remove dead skin cells at the moment of peeling.

 So the choice is huge, our job is just to take the most important first step in skin care thoroughly and regularly.

Believe in it because your skin will repay your care.
