If you want your skin to look and feel good, careful cleansing
is important. Cleansing is one of the most important steps in
your skincare regime.
If the skin is not thoroughly cleansed of dirt, sebum and
pollution, it can cause your skin to look dull and dark and
in people with oily skin, can cause acne. On the other hand,
using harsh cleansers on your skin can strip away essential
skin oils, which your skin isn't capable of replacing. You
will dry out your stratum corneum to cause premature aging
and dull, undernourished skin.
Soap
isn't very good at removing make -up
Soap can be very drying on the skin, washing away skin oils
and/or lipids
Skin is naturally acidic, while soap is generally alkaline,
it changes your skin's natural Ph balance
Cosmetic cleansers are carefully formulated to dissolve the
most tenacious of make-up formulations, excess skin oils and
dirt.
Toners
are typically to be used after using a cleanser and they help
in removing the cleanser residues and excess skin sebum.
Toners
refresh skin too.
They
also firm up and recondition the skin.
They shrink the pores and prevent dirt and dust from damaging
the skin.
