Face cleansing can be adjusted based on the type of buildup you’re removing and the texture you prefer. Different cleanser formats target oil-based and water-based impurities, and can be combined through double cleansing.
Oil Cleansers are designed to dissolve oil-based impurities such as sunscreen, makeup, and excess sebum. They are commonly used as the first step in a double cleansing routine.
Balm Cleansers are solid or semi-solid formulas that melt into an oil-like texture when applied to the skin, helping dissolve makeup, sunscreen, and buildup.
Gel Cleansers provide lightweight cleansing suitable for daily use, helping remove sweat, dirt, and surface impurities while maintaining skin comfort.
Foam Cleansers are water-based cleansers that create a rich lather, helping lift impurities and excess oil from the skin during cleansing.
Face Wash is a broader term commonly used to describe water-based cleansers, including gel and foam formats, designed for daily cleansing of the skin.
Double cleansing involves using an oil or balm cleanser first to dissolve makeup, sunscreen, and oil-based buildup, followed by a water-based cleanser to remove remaining impurities.
If you wear sunscreen daily, consider double cleansing in the evening using an oil or balm cleanser followed by a gentle gel or foam cleanser. After cleansing, many routines continue with toner and serum to prepare and treat the skin.
