The Benefits of Natural Cleansers

Natural face cleansers are rich in minerals, antioxidants and active enzymes that clean, detoxify, strengthen and restore healthy skin tone. Natural and organic face wash is formulated with skin loving oils and nourishing butters that are free from synthetic irritants. These natural ingredients balance the skin pH without stirpping the skin or overdrying that can leave your skin feeling tight and stiff. 

How to get the most from your Natural Face Wash

Regardless of your skin type we recommend that you cleanse your face twice daily, morning and evening. Even the driest and most sensitive skin will benefit from a twice daily natural face wash. Natural and Organic cleansers balance the skin to create a clean clear canvas for better penetration of natural skincare products, allowing the skin to reap the maximum benefits of your natural skincare regime. 

The Morning Cleanse

Cleansing your face in the morning aids the natural recovering and exfoliating process that occurs while we sleep. Using an organic face wash in the morning cleanse not only helps to awaken us but assists in removing dead skin cells and excess oils the skin may secrete overnight.  Added bonus, using a natural face wash in the morning ensures smooth and clear skin for flawless makeup application. 

The Evening Cleanse

Possibly the most  vital step in your skincare regime for truly glowing skin is the evening cleanse with a natural face cleanser. Even if you do not wear makeup your evening organic face wash is essential to lift and remove the pollution, grime and dirt and excess oil build up from the day. 

The evening cleanse clears the skin and prepares the barrier for a repairative night treatment. Going to sleep without cleansing deprives the skin of the vital nutrients including antioxidants and vitamins that ward off free radicals and support cell rejuvenation. Using natural cleanser before bed will lead to  brighter, more radiant looking skin upon waking.

The Double Cleanse – The Ultimate GLOW Getter

If you wear makeup and sunscreen throughout the day, please, pelase, please double cleanse at night.  If you wear make-up or live a busy city life, double cleansing with a natural and organic face wash is the best way to ensure you are truly clear and clean of the day’s pollution.  The first cleanse, ideally an oil or balm natural cleanser, removes makeup and debris. While the second cleanse, ideally a water based gel or cream  natural cleanser,  will lift the excess oils from the pores and any surface grime that the first round may have left behind. Double cleansing ensures that not only is the first layer of excess sebum, makeup, sunscreen removed but also that deep pore bacteria, which can aggravate acne, are removed.

Tips for Natural Facial Cleansing

Partnering your natural cleanser with a selection of eco-friendly cleansing cloths, reusable makeup pads and organic biodegradable wipes will add to your natural cleansing regime for glowing clear skin. A natural face wash cloth or Konjac sponge will amplify the benefits of your organic cleanser by gently exfoliating and lifting all traces of product along with the dirt and grime for a superior clean. 

Water temperature matters. Hot water will strip the natural oils and inflame the skin. The biggest skin myth is that pores open and close. They don’t. The good news is we can use a quality natural face wash to deep cleanse our pores so they appear more refined and minimal in appearance. Tepid or cool water is ideal for cleansing the face. 

Don’t overwash your skin! Overcleansing leads to inflammation and irritation and can exacerbate acne in oily and problematic skin types. Twice daily cleansing with the right natural cleanser for your skin type will address your skin concerns and protect the skin barrier. Remember to be consistent!  Good natural facial cleansing is a daily skincare ritual, not just a moment in time but a ritual for life.
