Cleansers

Cleansing removes dirt, oil, makeup, and environmental pollutants that can clog pores and cause breakouts. Regular cleansing helps maintain a balanced, healthy complexion and prepares your skin for other skincare products.

Most skin types benefit from twice-daily cleansing — morning and evening. Over-cleansing can strip natural oils and cause dryness or irritation, while under-cleansing can lead to clogged pores and dull skin.

For dry skin, choose a gentle, hydrating cleanser with ceramides or hyaluronic acid. For oily or acne-prone skin, a foaming or gel cleanser with salicylic acid or glycolic acid works best. Sensitive skin benefits from fragrance-free, soothing formulas with niacinamide or aloe vera.

Yes. Cleansers with ingredients like salicylic acid, glycolic acid, or benzoyl peroxide can reduce excess oil, unclog pores, and prevent breakouts when used consistently and correctly.

Signs of irritation include redness, stinging, tightness, or dryness after cleansing. If this happens, switch to a gentler, fragrance-free formula and avoid harsh scrubs or hot water.
