The skin on your face is very different in its biological structure to the skin on your body, being much thinner, having smaller pores and a higher concentration of oil glands. This means your facial skin is extremely sensitive and is thus, prone to breakouts, blemishes and acne. Cleansing is vital to keeping your skin looking and feeling healthy. It not only removes build up from pores, washing away bacteria, sweat, dead skin cells and oils, but also helps the skin maintain a healthy level of hydration and pH balance. You should cleanse your face at least once a day to help clear pores, prevent the build-up of dirt and pollutants and decrease the chances of a breakout. It will also prepare your skin for the rest of your skin care regime, allowing other products to penetrate and nourish the skin more effectively.
