Face Cleansing
Face cleansing is the first step to healthy, well-cared-for skin. It gently removes dirt, excess sebum, and makeup without drying out or irritating the skin. The right cleansing formula preserves the skin's natural protective barrier and optimally prepares it for the application of active ingredients.
The right face cleanser for every skin type
The choice of a suitable cleansing product varies depending on skin type and condition. Dry or sensitive skin is cleansed with milder, more moisturizing textures than oily skin prone to impurities. Whether cleansing gel, milk, or foam, the best facial cleanser is always the one that provides just the right amount of clarifying properties for your skin type without drying it out or damaging the skin's protective barrier.
Types of face cleansing & alternatives
Pre-Cleanser
Pre-Cleansing is the first step in a two-step cleansing routine. The pre-cleanser effectively removes oil-based residues, such as make-up, and enables particularly thorough cleansing by following up with a second cleansing product tailored to the skin's condition. The final toner removes any remaining residues, neutralizes the skin, and prepares it for the subsequent active ingredient care.
Cleansing gel
A cleansing gel is particularly suitable for oily and/or blemished skin. It has a more degreasing effect than a milk, is particularly clarifying and ensures a mattified complexion. Depending on the ingredients, cleansing with herbal extracts can help regulate the skin flora.
Cleansing foam
A cleansing foam cleanses deep into the pores without any moisturizing properties, but is still less degreasing than a gel. It is particularly suitable for normal to combination skin and is easy to rinse off.
Cleansing milk
Cleansing milk is ideal for dry, sensitive, or normal skin. Its creamy texture nourishes the skin during cleansing, leaving it feeling supple and clean without any tightness. Dry skin benefits enormously from moisturizing, creamy textures. Mature skin also requires richer cleansing products, as the skin becomes visibly drier over time.
Toner
The final toner is an important step in the skincare routine (after cleansing and before moisturizing) to remove any remaining residue and neutralize the skin. It not only refreshes and regulates the skin's pH value, but also prepares the skin for the subsequent active ingredient care.
Using face cleansing in your skincare routine
Thorough facial cleansing is essential for the active ingredients in your skincare products to be effective. If the skin is not cleansed beforehand, the skincare products cannot penetrate the skin and take effect. The cleansing steps should be carried out carefully to avoid skin irritation.
- Moisten the face with lukewarm water: This makes the skin more receptive and improves the cleansing effect.
- Spread the cleansing product in your hands or lather it up: This allows the product to spread over a larger area of the face and work more effectively.
- Massage in gently using circular movements: This carefully loosens residues and sebum without stressing the skin.
- Rinse thoroughly with water: Thorough removal is essential to remove all residues and avoid irritating the skin.
- Follow up with facial toner or toner: This removes any limescale or product residue from the skin and prepares it optimally for care.
