There are certain rules we all must follow if we want to have clear, fresh, smooth, and supple skin, and this is especially true for the skin of our face. Our facial skin can be quite delicate and sensitive, and, unfortunately for us, it gets the most exposure compared to other areas of our body. This is why it’s essential to find the right way to care for your facial skin, and this includes cleansing and toning. Cleansing and toning are essential for the skin of your face, and it’s something that you have to do every day. But what is the right procedure for cleansing and toning, and how do you do it in the best way? Additionally, how can you choose the right cleanser and toner for your face? Here’s everything you need to know about cleansing and toning the skin of your face.

Why it’s important to cleanse as well as tone

If you want your facial skincare routine to be truly effective, cleansing and toning are a must. Cleansing will help remove the dirt, sebum, makeup, and sweat from your skin without drying it out, and it will also prepare your skin for the rest of your skincare routine. Since your skin is clean, it will absorb the ingredients in your toner and other facial care products more readily and effectively as well. Here’s one more thing to remember: cleansing is crucial for skin that tends to develop blemishes because it can help your skin maintain a good and natural balance, supporting the skin’s natural process of regeneration as well.

How to do it properly

A good cleansing and toning routine is comprised of two primary steps: a cleansing foam, wash, gel, or milk, followed by the application of a toner. If you wear makeup for the eyes, you should also have a separate makeup remover for it, and this will be the third step of your routine.

When using your eye makeup remover, gently wipe away the makeup from the sensitive skin around your eyes and your lashes, and use a cotton pad to wipe the remover across the area. When using a gel or foam cleanser, make sure to rinse it off as thoroughly as possible using lukewarm water. Try to avoid using water that’s too hot because it can cause skin irritation. If you are using a cleansing milk product, you can simply apply and then remove it using a cotton pad; it doesn’t require any water. However, you can still use water if you prefer.

Choosing a cleanser and toner

Water on its own will not be enough for cleaning your face, because you need a surfactant – an ingredient which can dissolve in both fat and water – to combine with the dirt so it is removed from the skin. Firstly, you need to select products which are gentle, as confirmed by SkinCeuticals, which is renowned for its excellent range of skincare products. Stay away from aggressive or abrasive products and alkaline soap, which can change the pH from slightly and naturally acidic to neutral or alkaline pH, which reduces the ability of your skin to fight off bacteria. These products can also disrupt the proteins on the skin’s outermost layer, and it can remove lipids that help protect the skin.
