As I've said, a cleanser is the first step in any skincare routine. It washes the sweat, grime, and oils of the day away, as well as any makeup. Once you cleanse effectively, your face is a primed canvas for the rest of your skincare products, like moisturizers, toners, serums, and more.
You might think that cleansers and face washes are the same thing, but in reality, there are a few key differences. For example, a face wash is a water-based product that easily lathers and is intended for deep pore cleansing. Face washes often contain astringent ingredients, which help combat oil production — very helpful if you have oily skin. But if you have dry or sensitive skin, face washes might be too harsh.
Facial cleansers differ from face washes because they're designed to be more gentle. The texture of a cleanser is creamier and softer than a face wash, often containing ingredients that help nourish, soothe, and moisturize your skin. Facial cleansers aren't meant to strip away oil, so they're a great choice for sensitive, dry, or combination skin.
Effective cleansing is my number one skincare step for glowing skin. Since cleansing is the first step in your skincare routine, it is the foundation for any other steps. When you cleanse properly (or double cleanse), the serums, toners, and moisturizers you apply afterward can effectively penetrate your skin.
A great cleanser should be pH-balanced and help clear off your makeup, oils, grime, and dead skin cells. And cleansers can be used on all different types of skin. Here's a breakdown of the best cleansers for every skin type.
I can help you find the best cleanser for your skin type. Here are a few things to consider when choosing the best facial cleanser for you:
Different cleansers yield different results, so take a look at each facial cleanser I offer and decide which one is best for you.
Can I Use the Same Facial Cleanser Year-Round? You may need to switch up your facial cleanser depending on the season and how your skin is behaving. For example, you might want to use a more moisturizing cream cleanser during the dry winter months when skin tends to get dehydrated. In the hot, humid summer, you could switch to a lighter gel or foaming cleanser to better manage excess oil and sweat. Pay attention to how your skin responds to products as the weather and your environment changes throughout the year and adjust your cleanser accordingly to keep your skin balanced.

Take a look at the six signs of unhealthy skin that appear even with a solid skin routine, along with the esthetician-trusted tips to fix them!
One of the most obvious signs of unhealthy skin is a dry, flaky complexion. You might not notice how dry your skin has become as you lather on your favorite moisturizer. But you can definitely tell your skin is in need of moisture after applying makeup like foundation or powder. If your skin peels and flakes by the end of the day, you’re most likely overdue for a good exfoliation session!
Exfoliation is the best way to gently loosen dead skin cells, accelerate skin renewal, and revive dry or flaky skin. I recommend washing with the deep cleaning, foamy CBE Botanicals Scrub Away the Day Cleanser, and following with the Revive Exfoliating Serum once or twice weekly. If your skin is sensitive or dry, try the Enzyme Rescue for a gentle but thorough exfoliation.
