Let’s take a look at why facial cleansing is so important.
REMOVING BUILD UP
A common benefit of facial cleansing is the removal of dirt, oil, and other unwanted debris. Without washing, your skin would be covered with a thick layer of dirt and
grime which make it difficult for other products to penetrate the skin properly.
HYDRATION
Regular facial cleansing (along with the use of a good moisturizer) is also an important factor in helping the skin maintain a proper level of hydration.
CLEAR SKIN
Tiny glands under the skin produce oil called sebum to protect the skin from the dangers of the outside world. These glands use hair follicles within the skin as a
pathway, allowing the oil to reach the skins surface (outer layer) to form a barrier that prevents the penetration of bacteria or other harmful agents.
Excessive dirt build up on the surface can cause blockages of the follicle, trapping sebum, sweat, and dead skin cells. The lack of sebum on the skin’s surface allows
bacteria to penetrate the follicle causing inflammation. The final result is acne. Regular cleansing is essential to keeping your skin looking radiant and healthy.
Cleansing helps anti-aging products and treatments work properly. Cleansing helps maintain proper pore size. Cleansing encourages proper skin hydration and prevents the production of excess oils.
