A common benefit of facial cleansing is the removal of dirt, oil, and other unwanted debris.
Throughout the day the skin on your face is continually covered with bacteria, pollutants, viruses, dirt,
and old (dead) skin cells. Daily facial washing removes these impurities to give the skin a fresh look.
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.
BOOSTING 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. Dehydrated skin looks and feels rough, wrinkled and aged.
Cleansing helps manage PH levels of the skin; enabling sufficient water and product retention.
WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF YOU STOPPED CLEANSING?
If you completely stopped washing your face your pores would become clogged resulting in the development of serious acne.
The skin could also experience a combination of severe redness, dryness and irritation from insufficient hydration.
Finally your skin would generally appear dirty, oily, greasy and significantly aged.
Most likely you would develop an incredible itchiness; to the point where you would be forced to constantly
scratch your face. This could lead to breaks of the skin which serve as entry points for infection.
Moral of the story: practice proper skin cleansing!
SOME OTHER BENEFITS OF CLEANSING
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.
HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT FACIAL CLEANSERS
Know your skin type and choose a cleanser that's a good match.
If you have dry skin you'll want to avoid cleansers with high alcohol content.
People with oily skin need a cleanser with a lower PH level.
For sensitive skin you'll want a basic cleanser free from heavy fragrance and additives.
The delivery type of the cleanser matters. Cream based cleansers are great for dry skin while gel or foamy cleansers are better for oily skin types.
Most cleansers marketed as "gentle" are great at removing dirt without over drying and irritating the skin.
Selecting a cleanser with a balanced PH will help maintain your skins natural balance.
