A facial cleanser is a skincare product designed to remove dead skin cells, oil, dirt, makeup, and other pollutants from the skin, helping to keep your pores clear and prevent skin conditions such as acne
. Facial cleansers contain detergents called 'surfactants' that work to remove unwanted substances by attracting oil, makeup, dirt, and debris
. They are an essential part of an at-home skincare regimen and can be used in conjunction with other skincare products, such as acne treatments and daily skincare routines
. Some benefits of using a facial cleanser regularly include:
- Removing dirt, dead skin cells, and other unwanted surface debris
- Priming your skin for a daily skincare routine
- Assisting in the prevention of skin aging and acne
There are various types of facial cleansers available, such as foam cleansers, gel cleansers, and milk/jelly/hydrating cleansers
. The choice of cleanser depends on your skin type and specific needs. It is essential to cleanse your skin both in the morning and evening to remove toxins and impurities that accumulate throughout the day
