3 Face Cleansing Products You Need to Try

Your earliest skincare routine probably consisted solely of skin cleansing. It’s the first step to taking care of your complexion and was likely your introduction to skincare. In fact, the rest of your skin-care regimen doesn’t work too well without first using the best skincare products to cleanse, such as face scrubs or pore cleaners. Not all cleansers are created equal, and it’s important to find the best skin treatments no matter the weather, your lifestyle or your skin type. Here, we’ll breakdown three best facial cleansers to try now — L’Oréal Paris Skin Expert Micellar Water Complete Cleanser, L’Oréal Paris Pure-Sugar Scrubs and L’Oréal Paris Pure-Clay Cleansers and Masks — and the benefits that each one will have on your skin.

The importance of cleansing your face

Switching up your skincare products as the seasons change is a good way to address your skin’s changing issues. In winter, hydration is important so you need products that won’t strip the skin, but in warmer weather, it’s all about getting superclean. The combination of sweat and pollution can leave your skin dull, even if you’re using the best face cream. Either way, cleansing your face should be the foundation of your skincare process. A good facial cleanser removes the dirt, excess oil and buildup from the day and preps your skin for the rest of your skincare routine. Face cleansing goes beyond just soap and water. In fact, there are plenty of skin cleansers and skin cleansing products that can help get you closer to that super fresh and clean skin.

Here are some skin cleansing products to try:

Micellar water is a gentle cleanser

Try a micellar cleansing water in your skincare routine if you have sensitive skin. Micellar water is a gentle cleansing skincare product that removes make-up and dirt while mattifying and purifying your complexion.

• Great for sensitive skin
• Can be the second step in a double face cleanse for the ultimate clean
• Oil-, alcohol- and fragrance-free

With L’Oréal Paris Micellar Water Complete Cleanser, you get complete skin cleansing in one gentle step. You don’t even have to rinse! Just wipe the micellar water over your face with a cotton pad, and the molecules pull dirt and oil from the skin leaving your face clean and prepped for the next step in your skin-care routine. It even removes stubborn waterproof make-up without having to scrub and irritate your skin.

Combine two face cleansing steps by adding an exfoliating scrub

The best skincare routine includes a cleansing face scrub. A skincare treatment exfoliating scrub is great for cleansing, and it also removes dead skin from the surface.

• A great skin treatment if you have dry or flaky skin
• Exfoliates while it cleanses the skin
• Leaves skin clean and smooth

Opt for L’Oréal Paris Pure-Sugar Scrubs. Combine the cleansing and exfoliating steps in your skincare routine by reaching for a cleansing face scrub. The sugars in this line help to gently lift and remove dead skin cells while also treating some of your other skin concerns like dullness, oil production and dryness. When used three times a week, a sugar exfoliating scrub can make a huge impact in your skincare routine while still being ultra-gentle. They also do double-duty as you can use them on your lips to buff away dry skin. The key is selecting the right scrub for your skin type.

L’Oréal Paris Pure-Sugar Kiwi Scrub for Oily Skin is a luxe combination of kiwi seeds, peppermint and lemongrass oil—plus the three pure sugars that are a staple in face scrubs. The formula is perfect for oily, blemish-prone skin.

• If you find that your complexion is looking a little dull, try L’Oréal Paris Pure-Sugar Scrub for Dull Skin. The three-sugar blend is paired with grapeseed, acai and manoi oils to gently exfoliate and leave the skin cleansed, soft, smooth and glowing.n
• Those with rough, uneven skin should try L’Oréal Paris Pure-Sugar Coffee Scrub for Rough Skin. Sugars mixed with Kona Coffee and coconut and sweet almond oils helps to resurface and energize uneven skin.
• If you fall under the dry skin category, L’Oréal Paris Pure-Sugar Cocoa Scrub for Dry Skin is the one for you. The formula contains rich cocoa butter with coconut oil to provide intense hydration to parched skin while still delivering gentle cleanse and exfoliation.

The latest trend is all about cleansing face masks

Try a cleansing with a face mask for oily skin. Face masks are great for deep cleansing, removing excess oil and are a targeted skin cleansing product to meet your skin’s specific needs.

• Deep cleans by pulling dirt and oil from the pores
• A cleanser that doubles as a great skincare treatment
• Can be used as a spot treatment for areas that need extra help
