Cleansing is the very first step of a skincare routine and also the step that can make or break your skin health. The right cleanser supports your skin barrier, removes dirt & pollution, controls excess oil, and preps your skin to absorb all the goodness from serums and creams.
But here’s the truth:
Not every cleanser suits every skin type or mood your skin goes through.
