Face cleansing. The best Korean facial cleansers

Washing is an important step in skin care. Also, washing is the first step or cleansing of the skin. Ordinary tap water does not give the effect of complete cleansing of the skin, does not provide proper deep cleansing and release of the skin from dead cells.

Korean foams and gels for washing delicately cleanse the skin of impurities and maintain the required pH level of the skin. Foams do not cause irritation.

Foams differ in their composition. Notably, Korean facial cleansers generally do not contain alcohol. Thus, they do not cause skin irritation.

The choice of foam depends on the task of skin care. This, in turn, is determined by the type and condition of the skin. For example, caring for dry skin will be different from caring for combination skin. With the wrong choice of foam for washing, skin care can disrupt its condition.

Korean foam for dry skin

Foams for dry skin care have a loose consistency. The composition of such foams should be aimed at combating peeling and irritation of the skin, since dry skin is prone to such imperfections.

For dry skin, for example, a washing gel with ph 5.5 is suitable. Heimish All Clean Green Foam with Centella Asiatica.

Korean skin care products for oily skin

Foams for oily skin have a denser structure. Oily skin requires deep cleansing. If the skin is problematic and has a tendency to inflammation, then it is necessary to pay attention to the presence of tea tree extract or salicylic acid in the composition of the foam. These components will provide deep cleansing and anti-inflammatory effect.

For oily and problematic skin, COSRX Salycylic Acid Dayly Gentle Cleanser is ideal.

Korean foams for normal skin

Foams for normal skin are aimed at maintaining the correct hydro-lipid balance of the skin and cleansing the skin.

Helloskin Jumiso All day Vitamin Clean&Mild Facial Cleanser is a mild facial cleanser with vitamins for normal skin that not only cleanses, but also moisturizes the skin.

Korean foams for combination skin

To care for combination skin, it must be remembered that the problem with such skin is that the T-zone tends to be oily. Therefore, the skin needs matting and hydration.

For combination skin, Heimish All Clean White Clay Foam is suitable for washing with white clay.

Korean foams to protect the skin barrier

To protect the skin barrier, cosmetics with probiotics are best suited. Manyo Bifida Complex Ampoule Gel Cleanser helps repair and protect the skin barrier.

In our store of Korean cosmetics, there are facial cleansers for different skin types. Every girl will find a suitable facial wash for herself.

5 mistakes to avoid when washing your face

The methods and products you use make a huge difference in the thorough removal of makeup, skin care, sunscreen, and impurities. Here are five of the most common mistakes you can make when washing your face.

Excessive skin cleansing

Rough cleansing of the skin can lead to premature aging and increased sensitivity. So be careful with your skin when cleansing, especially around sensitive eyes. This keeps the skin around the eyes supple and fresh for longer.

Therefore, we do not recommend physical peeling, as it leads to a very rough effect on the skin. Physical peels are known as peels with sugar or salt, peels with sand or pieces of nuts, and also in the form of brushes or sponges. The misuse of these physical scrubs can have serious consequences for your skin. Too much use of physical exfoliators or scrubs can lead to redness, inflammation, and skin irritation. It can also weaken the skin barrier and cause breakouts and breakouts.

Under no circumstances should scrubs with walnut shells or pieces of apricot kernels be used, as they have uneven, sharp edges and can lead to invisible cuts on the skin. We recommend exfoliating with AHA, BHA or PHA acids, as they can also prevent pollution and skin aging.

Cleansing wipes are also not gentle enough on the skin, they can tighten the skin and tend to be especially gentle when used around the eye area. However, they do not remove makeup, but simply smear it on the skin.

Poor skin cleansing

This is especially true for makeup and sun protection. Poor cleansing can lead to noticeable enlargement of pores, blackheads and acne. Even mild cleansers clean thoroughly when used correctly. Allow enough time for this step. If after cleansing your face you find traces of make-up on your towel or face, then you haven't done it thoroughly enough.

For a complete cleansing of the skin, use the double skin cleansing method. You start your cleansing routine with a hydrophilic oil and then use a cleansing gel. After a thorough double cleansing, make-up or sunscreen should not remain on the face.

Washing too often

Washing your face too often can weaken the skin's natural protective barrier. This makes your skin more susceptible to environmental factors, moisture loss and aging.

We recommend washing your skin in the morning and evening. For very dry or damaged, sensitive skin, a little warm water in the morning is enough to cleanse. If you're not exercising or sweating a lot, use a mild cleanser after your workout.

Wrong washing gel

Shower gel, shampoo or hand soap has no place on the face! These products contain a lot of harsh detergents, perfumes and ingredients that are not suitable for your face.

On the other hand, use a mild gel cleanser. And try the double cleanse mentioned above.

Hot water usage

Warm water is very convenient, especially in winter, but if the water is too hot, it can dry out the skin and strip it of its natural oils and moisture. If the skin is dry and dehydrated, it can lead to inflammation and redness, especially in people with sensitive skin. Use warm water so as not to injure your skin.
