A good facial cleanser lays the foundation for the rest of your skincare routine. By removing makeup, excess sebum, and impurities, the skin feels clean and refreshed while also being prepared for serum and face cream. At drpen.io, you will find facial cleansers from Neutriherbs that are easy to use as part of your daily skincare routine.
Our range of facial cleansers has been carefully selected and currently consists of Snail All In One Cleanser from Neutriherbs. We are continuously working to develop our skincare range, and more cleansing products may be added in the future. The goal is to offer products that naturally complement our serums, face creams, and other skincare products.
Why is facial cleansing important?
The skin is exposed daily to sebum, sweat, makeup, and various types of impurities. A facial cleanser helps remove these from the skin’s surface and creates a better starting point for the skincare products that follow.
However, cleansing is not about making the skin feel as tight or stripped as possible. A good cleansing product should cleanse effectively while still leaving the skin feeling comfortable afterward. If your skin regularly feels very dry or tight immediately after cleansing, it may be a sign that the product or routine is too harsh for your skin.
Our facial cleanser from Neutriherbs
In our range, you will find Snail All In One Cleanser from Neutriherbs, a gentle facial cleanser developed for daily cleansing. The foaming formula helps remove dirt, excess sebum, and impurities without leaving the skin unnecessarily dry.
The cleanser is ideal for those who want a simple first step in their skincare routine and can be followed by serum and face cream based on the skin’s needs. After cleansing, the skin feels clean, soft, and ready for the next step.
How do you use facial cleanser?
Facial cleansing does not have to be complicated. A few simple steps are enough to create a consistent routine:
- Moisten the skin. Start with lukewarm water. Very hot water can feel drying or irritating to the skin.
- Apply the cleanser. Distribute an appropriate amount between your hands and work up the product.
- Massage gently. Spread the cleanser over the face using soft circular motions without scrubbing the skin harshly.
- Rinse thoroughly. Remove the product with lukewarm water.
- Dry gently. Pat the skin dry with a clean towel instead of rubbing.
- Continue with skincare. Apply serum and then face cream as needed.
How often should you cleanse your face?
For many people, cleansing morning and evening works well, but how often the skin needs to be cleansed can vary depending on skin type, lifestyle, and the products you use.
Evening cleansing is especially important because it helps remove makeup, sebum, and impurities that have built up during the day. In the morning, the need can vary. Some prefer a full cleanse, while others, for example those with dry or sensitive skin, may want to keep their morning routine simpler.
The most important thing is to adapt the routine to your skin. If cleansing twice a day makes your skin feel very dry or tight, it may be better to adjust how often or how much product is used.
Facial cleansing in the morning
Morning cleansing helps refresh the skin and remove, among other things, sebum produced during the night. After cleansing, you can continue with a serum suited to your skin’s needs, followed by face cream and sunscreen.
A simple morning routine can therefore look like this:
- Facial cleanser
- Serum
- Face cream
- Sunscreen
Facial cleansing in the evening
In the evening, cleansing has a particularly important function because the skin’s surface may carry traces of makeup, sunscreen, sebum, sweat, and other impurities from the day.
After cleansing, you can continue with a facial serum based on what your skin needs and then finish with a moisturizing face cream. In this way, cleansing serves as the starting point for the entire evening routine.
Facial cleansing for different skin types
Different skin types can react differently to cleansing products. Therefore, it is good to pay attention to how your skin feels both before and after cleansing.
- Dry skin: choose a mild cleanser and avoid over-cleansing the skin if it easily feels tight.
- Oily skin: regular cleansing can help remove excess sebum, but the skin still needs to be treated gently.
- Combination skin: focus on a balanced cleanse that works for both drier and oilier areas.
- Sensitive skin: keep the routine simple and pay attention to how the skin reacts to both the product and the cleansing frequency.
Should you cleanse your face before serum?
Yes. Facial cleansing normally comes before serum in the skincare routine. Once dirt, sebum, and other impurities have been removed, serum can be applied to cleansed skin.
The basic order is therefore:
Cleansing → Serum → Face cream
In the morning, the routine is completed with sunscreen as the final step.
Do you need to cleanse your face if you do not use makeup?
Yes, cleansing can still be a relevant part of your skincare routine even if you do not use makeup. During the day, sebum and sweat are produced while other impurities can collect on the skin’s surface. If you use sunscreen, evening cleansing is also a natural way to remove product residue before your nighttime skincare routine.
What is the difference between facial cleanser and regular soap?
A facial cleanser is developed specifically for the skin on the face. Regular hand or body soap, on the other hand, is not necessarily formulated with the needs of facial skin in mind and may feel too drying for some people.
Using a product intended for the face therefore makes it easier to create a consistent skincare routine without the cleansing step becoming unnecessarily harsh.
Facial cleansing and microneedling
Clean skin is especially important before microneedling. Before a treatment begins, makeup, sebum, and impurities should be removed and the skin prepared according to the instructions for the microneedling product being used.
After microneedling, however, the skin is temporarily more sensitive, which means that your usual skincare routine may need to be adjusted during recovery. If you are wondering when cleansing can be resumed, you can read our guide on when you can wash your face after microneedling.
It is also important to prepare the skin properly before treatment. In our guide on what to avoid before microneedling, we go through more things that are good to keep in mind before treatment.
Frequently asked questions about facial cleansing
How often should you wash your face?
For many people, cleansing morning and evening works well, but the need varies depending on skin type and routine. If your skin feels dry or tight, the cleansing frequency may need to be adjusted.
Should you use facial cleanser morning and evening?
That works well for many skin types. Evening cleansing is especially important for removing sebum, makeup, sunscreen, and impurities from the day. The morning routine can be adapted to the skin’s needs.
Should serum be used before or after cleansing?
Serum is applied after facial cleansing. Cleanse the skin first, then apply serum and finish with face cream.
Do you need to cleanse your face if you are not wearing makeup?
Yes. Even without makeup, sebum, sweat, and other impurities collect on the skin’s surface during the day. Cleansing can therefore still be an important part of the evening routine.
What water should you use when washing your face?
Lukewarm water is a good option. Very hot water can feel drying or irritating, especially for dry and sensitive skin.
Why does the skin feel tight after cleansing?
If your skin often feels very tight after cleansing, the product, amount, or cleansing frequency may be too harsh for your skin. Adjust the routine based on how your skin reacts.
Is Snail All In One Cleanser suitable for daily use?
Yes, Snail All In One Cleanser from Neutriherbs is developed as a mild cleanser for daily use and is suitable for different skin types.
Can I use regular facial cleanser directly after microneedling?
The skin is temporarily more sensitive after microneedling, and your usual skincare routine may therefore need to be paused or adjusted. Always follow the aftercare instructions for the treatment before returning to your usual cleansing routine.
