In reply to Icaria. Icaria, that's so true. Using the wrong cleanser can really cause havoc on your skin. It's important to choose the right one for your skin type, taking also into consideration the weather and how much makeup you wear. But whatever product you choose, it must be a gentle one that doesn't disrupt the skin's protective barrier. :)

In reply to Janessa. Janessa, these are wonderful tips! I agree that harsh cleansers are a no-no. Applying a gentler one properly works much better and doesn't damage skin.

Makeup Morsels, 4 times a day?! What was she thinking?! That’s way too much!

And I don’t think sunscreen in a cleanser is a very good idea at all either…

Excellent tips! So many people damage their skin’s protective barrier & it can take months to “repair”. I have several cleansers depending on weather & if it’s a.m. or p.m. In the morning I love using a micellar water. In the evening, cold weather it’s a milk cleanser, hot weather I use a foam.

Really great tips :D. I recommend that you actually massage (very gently) the cleanser into the skin to get off all the dirt rather than a harsh cleanser or just slathering on cleanser and rinsing it off. Or using a makeup-removing cleanser before another one (to rinse off residue).

Number 2 and 4 are definitely good, I think I probably broke out so much in middle school because the lady who sold me cleanser told me to wash my face 4 times a day….luckily I know better now. And I remember seeing a cleanser with sunscreen in it once and thinking how is this supposed to work??
