Why this Revolutionary Product is Our New Favorite Facial Cleanser

July 01, 2022

By now, you would have known the importance of cleansing in our daily skincare routine. Especially with the humidity in Singapore, effective cleaning of your face helps remove impurities, germs, dirt and makeup that can irritate your skin.

Here's the tricky part: if you cleanse your skin too often with water or harsh cleansers, your skin's natural moisture is stripped away, leaving it vulnerable to dryness and irritation. While some cleansers in the market claim to make your face squeaky clean, the best facial cleanser is still a gentle cleanser that can remove impurities and pollutants, without robbing your skin of the natural oils yet keeping it hydrated and looking healthy.

HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT FACIAL CLEANSER

With literally hundreds of cleansing products to choose from, so how do you go about choosing the right cleanser?

Well, here are 8 simple guidelines that would be useful for picking a good skin cleanser:

• Know your skin type: Choose a cleanser that’s a good match for your skin type. If you have dry skin, you may want to avoid cleansers with high alcohol content. For people with oily skin, it is recommended to choose a cleanser with a lower PH level. For sensitive skin, you will want to stick to a basic cleanser free from heavy fragrance and additives.
• Delivery type of cleanser: Some of you may not be aware but the delivery type of the cleanser matters. Cream based cleansers are great for dry skin, while gel or foamy cleansers are more suitable for oily or combination skin type.
• Amount of Makeup used: If you wear a lot of makeup, you will want to choose a cleanser that is designed to remove it.
• Active Lifestyle: If you love hitting the gym or exercising and you tend to sweat a lot from working out, look for a cleansing product that targets clogged pores.
• Allergies: If you have allergies, seek for "natural" cleansers that don't contain any synthetic. You may want to do a quick research as some ingredient names may be similar, but are actually not the same. A typical example would be Sodium Lauryl Glucose Carboxylate and Sodium Lauryl/Laureth. The names might look similar, but the key is the former does not have the word 'sulfate' in it. Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS) is commonly used in skincare products such as body wash, cleansers, shampoos and hand washes but is generally harsher for the skin while Sodium Lauryl Glucose Carboxylate is produced from naturally occurring raw materials using natural processes and is perfectly safe for your skin with no adverse effects.
• Choose A Gentle Cleanser: Most cleansers marketed as “gentle” are great at removing dirt without over drying and irritating the skin.
• PH Balance: Choosing a cleanser with a neutral PH will help maintain your skin's natural balance.
• Product Research: Take your time when comparing products and reading reviews.
