Skin Cleansers General Overview

There is no doubt that everyone has always dreamt of the ideal skin – smooth and soft, fresh and rosy, without any defects. Though everyone realizes that it is not easy to achieve perfection in the real life, it’s worth trying, because healthy and attractive skin is always in fashion.

Fortunately, the situation is not hopeless these days. Thanks to the constant development of cosmetology, we have a wide choice of various skin care programs, which help our skin look great. Nowadays every complex program includes such a simple procedure as cleansing, the first and very important step in the process of achieving the perfect results. Cleansers remove dust, perspiration, the top layer of dead skin cells, all make up, and bacteria from the skin surface, helping our skin function properly and look better.

Modern market offers a lot of various skin cleansers, including bar soaps, lipid-free cleansers, cleansing creams, toners, scrubs, and facial masks. It should be noted that all of them have their pros and cons. So, let’s consider the major of them.

For example, bar soaps, being the most commonly used type of cleansers, can remove the protective fat layer of the skin. As a result, we may experience skin irritation and dryness.

Lipid-free cleansers are liquids that do not contain any fat. They can be used for removing make-up; besides, they are beneficial for dry and old skin, because of their good moisturizing effect.

Cleansing creams, one more type of skin cleansers, are usually made of heavy oils. So, they can be used for both washing the skin and moisturizing it. Although cleansing creams are gentler than other cleansers, they can be harmful when left on the skin for some time.

Toners are usually perfumed alcohol-based cleansers. They are effective in removing oil from the skin and producing a tight feeling.

Skin scrubbers are substances that are used for removing dead skin cells. They work rather mechanically than through the chemical reaction. That’s why one should not use skin scrubbers on a daily basis: this can damage the surface of the skin.

Facial masks have a dual action – they cleanse the skin and moisturize it as well.

It is not difficult to get lost looking at this variety of skin cleansers. So, how to make the right choice and select the cleanser that will provide the best results? The first and the most important rule is to pay attention to the type of your skin.

People with dry skin, for example, should use cleansing soaps containing a lot of fats and moisturizers. Oily skin requires a non-greasy, milky skin cleanser. Those, who have sensitive skin, are recommended to use mild soaps with no fragrance or fancy ingredients. Finally, any type of facial skin cleansers can be used for normal skin.

Anyway, healthy and attractive skin is, first of all, clean one. So, never put off till tomorrow what you can do today! Cleanse your skin and be beautiful!
