It is unlikely that we will discover America if we say that the beauty of the skin begins with such a banal, at first glance, action as cleansing.

“Our skin is constantly in contact with the environment, so we must understand that it is not sterile, but inhabited by a variety of bacteria, fungi and viruses. This is fine. The combination of microorganisms that live on the skin forms a microbiome that is individual for each.”

Even if you do not use decorative cosmetics, the following linger on your face:

remnants of cream and serum;

sebum, dead cells;

dust particles.

This "explosive mixture" does not improve the condition of the epidermis, which means that it is better to get rid of it.

“To prevent clogging of pores, the appearance of comedones and blackheads, be sure to cleanse your skin regularly and thoroughly,” says Alexander Prokofiev, dermatovenereologist, medical expert of the La Roche-Posay brand.

Cleansing Rules

A few simple rules will help make the process delicate, but effective.

Wash your face no more than twice a day, otherwise the skin will begin to intensively produce sebum. Adjust the temperature of the water: ideally, it should be slightly warm. But contrasts and temperature changes may well lead to skin problems. Be sure to wash off any, including.

After washing, gently pat your face dry with a towel without rubbing your skin. By the way, instead of a cloth towel, it is better to use a disposable paper one.

Don't forget to finish cleansing by wiping your face with tonic using a cotton pad. The tonic will remove the remnants of make-up remover, restore the pH level and narrow the pores.

Stages of cleansing

Cleansing the skin at different times of the day is not essential, but still different.

   In the morning - minimum program: foam or gel for washing plus tonic.

   For combination and oily skin, a gel or foam with a slight exfoliating effect is indicated. As a rule, acids are responsible for it.

Types of cleansers

To eliminate impurities from the skin, many products of different formats have now been developed. Here are the main ones.

The best lip pencils in 2020

When choosing a wash, you must first pay attention to the composition. If the list of components contains sodium lauryl sulfate or sodium miret sulfate, then it is better to buy another gel. Often, this kind of components are found only in inexpensive washing gels, but there are exceptions. After applying such a product, the dermis will become dry, rashes may appear.

The unwanted ingredient is mineral oil. Many girls think that oils in cosmetics are always the way, but in this case it is not so, especially if you have combination or oily skin. Mineral oils can clog pores, leading to breakouts.

Among the useful components I would like to highlight:

• coco-glucoside;
• coco-betaine;
• capryl glucoside;
• cocamidopropyl betaine.

These ingredients retain moisture, so they are often used in gels for dry skin. Girls with oily or combination skin should look for cleansers with acids (lactic, salicylic, glycolic). They contribute to the exfoliation of dead cells, give the skin a dull and healthy look. It is good if the product for cleansing the face contains a list of medicinal herbs: chamomile, aloe, calendula cornflower, etc.

Trends 2019

When choosing the best cleanser, you should pay attention to fashion trends. Popular trends for 2019 include:

organic

You need to understand that natural and organic cosmetics are fundamentally different products in terms of composition. A natural product can be filled with different dyes, fragrances and other ingredients that cause allergies and dryness. To write “natural” on a product, it is enough to add 1-2 natural products to the composition (you can do it in minimal quantities).

Organic cosmetics consist entirely of natural ingredients, no chemical technologies are used in the manufacture. Such cosmetics should be labeled "COSMOS ORGANIC" or "COSMOS NATURAL".

Korean cosmetics

Korean-made decorative and care products have become popular for a reason. Firstly, they are actively promoted on YouTube, and secondly, almost all products from Korea can boast of high quality.

It is worth noting that Korean products may not be suitable for women with very oily skin, since the cosmetics of this production are aimed at the fashionable trend in Asia - a wet face. Asians specifically try to give their face a “wet” effect, so manufacturers go to meet them and make products that contain moisturizing and illuminating components.

Belarusian and Polish cosmetics

Lovers of inexpensive cosmetics believe that the best washing gels are made in Belarus or Poland. Surely, all the girls who follow fashion trends have noticed that cosmetics from these countries have become really popular, even the most famous beauty bloggers recommend it to their subscribers.

Prices allow you to try different products and choose the perfect option, but in order not to buy everything, it’s better to first look at reviews (with a detailed description and photos before and after use) or video tests.

Composition and fashion trends are not everything. Before buying a product, you should read the reviews on thematic sites. Choose the gel for washing, which has a lot of good reviews from buyers and beauticians. Browse the relevant tops, make your own rating of the best face wash based on skin type, financial possibilities and composition.

The best gel manufacturers

Based on fashion trends inspired by beauty bloggers and consumer reviews, we have selected 5 of the most popular brands that make truly high-quality face wash:

• 1 L "Oreal is the undisputed leader in the production of cosmetic products. L" Oreal products are known even to those who are not interested in cosmetics.
• 2 Vichy is a brand that is produced under the leadership of L "Oreal. It produces decent products with good compositions.
• 3 Kanebo - For over 7 years, Kanebo has been one of the most popular brands in Japan. And over the past few years, it has become a leading manufacturer in the global market.
• 4 Garnier - quality products and affordable prices are the main features of Garnier products.
• 5 Cosmetex Roland is a Japanese company known throughout the world for the high quality of its products.

I would also like to mention: Ziaja, Lirene, Belkosmex, Glossier, Avene. These brands also make quality products, but have not yet reached the level of popularity of the aforementioned colleagues in the shop. Of course, only you can decide which cleanser to buy, we only advise you to pay attention to popular and fashionable brands.

Which face wash to choose

Washing gel is an important part of your facial care, so pay due attention to the choice of this product.

Tool selection algorithm:

1. Decide on your skin type, for each of the types we have selected the best rating.
2. Are you prone to allergies? If yes, then choose natural gels, the likelihood of an allergy to their components is lower.
3. Be sure to check the wash before buying for the content of SLS and harmful surfactants in it, described at the beginning of the article.
4. Decide on the maximum price. Prices for cleansers start at 100 rubles and end at 2000-3000. Decide how much money you are willing to spend on them.

We hope our little rating helped you with this. Watch your skin, then it will answer you with perfect smoothness and lack of inflammation.

Dermatologists agree: the skin of the face must be cleansed without fail twice a day: in the morning and in the evening. You ask: why so often? The fact is that even indoors, particles of dust, dirt and bacteria flying in the air settle on your skin. What can we say about street pollution. In addition, the skin itself constantly produces sweat and sebum. Mixing with settled dust and dirt, they contribute to the active reproduction of bacteria. As a result, we get rashes, irritation and peeling. In addition, regular neglect of cleansing leads to the appearance of hated black dots.

Therefore, the skin needs effective cleansing. In the morning and evening, evenly distribute the cleanser on the skin with light massaging movements for 1-2 minutes, but do not rub. Then rinse with water or remove with wet wipes. The water should not be cold or hot. For best results, damp skin should be blotted with soft, absorbent wipes or left in droplets to dry. During any facial treatment, it is better not to exert too much effort, rub or pull the skin strongly.

circadian rhythms

In the morning, it is enough to use a light cleanser or even just wash your face with water and wipe your face with a tonic tonic. But evening cleansing is a more responsible matter. It begins with removing makeup with milk or lotion. Under no circumstances should makeup be left on the face overnight. After that, another cleanser (foam, gel or mousse) removes the remnants of make-up remover, as well as sweat and sebum. Finally, wash with water.

Try not to neglect any of these steps, including makeup removal. Since, as experts joke, no one takes a shower in a raincoat: so we should not wash our faces with makeup on our faces.

Popular

There are also complex skin care systems that involve the daily use of gentle exfoliators. They prevent clogging of pores and rashes, make the skin more tender.

Only clean skin can fully absorb the nutrients from creams and serums.

To the very depths

In addition to the daily superficial cleansing of the skin, of course, a deeper one is also required. For dry sensitive skin, one peeling procedure every 10 days is enough, while it is better to give preference to gommage, enzymatic peeling. For oily skin, a scrub and, again, enzyme peeling are suitable, which in this case can be done up to two times a week. Exfoliation removes keratinized scales that interfere with skin respiration, and also clears clogged pores. “At the same time, excessively intense, aggressive “peeling” of the skin leads to the appearance of microcracks, scratches, which further enhances peeling after a few days,” cautions Olga Ibrakova, dermatologist and cosmetologist at the Anti-Age Clinic Novaya Zhizn.

“All skin cleansing procedures should be meaningful, regular and using high-quality hypoallergenic cosmetics, individually selected for skin type,” recalls Natalya Kolenko, dermatocosmetologist at the Kraftway clinic.

For a cleanser to be effective, it must remove both fat-soluble substances (make-up, sebum, cream) and water-soluble substances (sweat).

The most traditional and “ancient” way of cleansing the skin is washing with water. But for dry and sensitive skin, tap water can become an additional source of irritation, in which case it is better to use boiled or mineral water, as well as special cleansing micellar lotions. Cleansing milk, mousse and foam are also suitable for dry skin. For oily skin, the texture should be gel, you can pick up a special soap (for example, ichthyol).

People with problematic combination skin often use medicated antibacterial soap to cleanse. Alkaline soap disrupts the acid balance and kills beneficial microflora on the surface of the skin. Such funds are not recommended to be used more than once a day (and it is better to use them in courses).

Mistake came out

It is not recommended to wash your face in haste, because it is very important to carefully remove the remnants of cleansers from the skin. If some of the surfactants linger outside, they can react with the components of the creams applied after washing and lead to allergies.

Improper cleansing can cause skin problems. Dissolution of the hydrolipidic film and damage to skin cells with aggressive detergents can lead to a violation of the barrier function of the skin, make it dehydrated, defenseless against various microorganisms, open access to allergens and irritants, disrupt the natural process of epidermal renewal. Damage to the skin barrier can trigger the development of various skin diseases.

In addition, the very active use of cleansing products (more than twice a day), the use of several types of products at once, and their wrong combination are harmful. All this leads to overdrying, dehydration, flaking of the skin, a constant feeling of dryness and tightness. And in the long run, it accelerates the formation of wrinkles.

good forecast

“Any skin needs competent daily care, and only in this case can we count on maintaining its good appearance and physiological condition,” says Natalya Kolenko. Cleansing the skin is an important step in preparing for the subsequent care or application of decorative cosmetics. Only clean skin can fully absorb the nutrients from creams and serums. Therefore, the stage of skin care must be approached carefully and responsibly. It is necessary to choose cleansers for yourself in accordance with the age, type and condition of the skin, it is also necessary to remember that the cleanser must effectively remove impurities, completely wash off the surface of the skin, not penetrate into the deeper layers and not be toxic. When the skin is cleansed properly, it begins to glow from the inside, looks even and smooth. There is a feeling of freshness and lightness. “When the skin is cleansed, well-groomed, it is healthy, so the aging process begins later and proceeds more slowly,” Olga Ibrakova sums up.
