How to choose your facial cleanser?

Because it prepares your skin to receive other treatments, facial cleansing occupies a strategic position in your beauty routine. The challenge lies in removing impurities from your skin without disrupting its delicate balance.

Whether it's a facial cleanser for sensitive skin or one for oily skin, there are many different cleansers on the market today. But in reality, only a handful of them are suitable for daily use.

• Foaming detergents: although pleasant, their foaming power is likely to cause dryness in the long term.
• Micellar waters: composed mainly of surfactants, they should be avoided if you are looking for a good facial cleanser for dry or sensitive skin.
• Cleansing milks: appreciated by delicate skin, they can however leave occlusive residues on the surface of the skin if they are not rinsed off.
• Cleansing waters or floral waters : generally well tolerated by the skin, they are less effective on makeup and excess sebum.
• Cleansing oils: these are the best facial cleansers known to date. Both gentle and effective, they have an optimal affinity with the skin's lipid profile.
