Cleansers for YOUR skin?

Hello everyone!

The topic we wil be covering today is going to be cleansers. When I started getting into cleansers, I did not realize how intimidating it can be to choose one for your skin because of the different kinds and brands so I hope this is a helpful guide for you.

Oil Cleansers

Oil Cleansers are great if you are looking to remove your makeup and clean your face all at the same time. Because of its oiliness you can also find that it also removes waterproof makeup. There are also many different types of Oil Cleansers that is okay for many different types of skin, so it really doesn't matter if you have oily skin. It is also very gentle on your skin, unlike scrubs that scratch your skin.

Brands you should try: 
Drugstore: Neutrogena, Innisfree, Etude House
Higher End: Shu Uemura, Shiseido

Use:
Daily

Peeling Cleanser

A peeling cleanser's duty is too remove any makeup and excess dirt you may have by peeling your skin. No, it is not painful I thought so too. It is the same as any other cleanser, but it just has a peeling effect. These are not so known on the US, but in Asia this is a big trend and very popular among Koreans.

Brands you should try:

Higher End(only ones I recommend have not tried drugstore): Primera, AmorePacific.

Use:
Can use daily, however I recommend every other day.

Scrubs

A scrub is really very simple. It helps to remove dirt, blackheads, dead skin, etc. Scrubs are best if used two or three times a week as it is harsher for the skin. If used too much it can pull on the skin and create redness and lines.

BEWARE: The scrubs you use for your body should not be used on your face since they are too harsh for it.

I won't recommend a scrub since there are so many and it would really vary on what type of skin you have.

Foam Cleanser

 

A foam cleanser, cleanses your skin whilst creating foam. I personally don't understand why someone would want foam on their face. It is good for using everyday. If you have drier skin I would not suggest this as it can leave a plastic feeling on your face.

Gel Cleanser

Gel cleansers are preferably used by people with oily skin and it is the basic form of cleanser. It is very easy to find and also cheaper than other cleansers. It can be used daily.

Cream Cleanser

Cream Cleansers are for people who have drier skin because it moisturizes the skin whilst cleansing it.
