Stinging and redness after washing face with facial cleanser

Men and women who know how to take care of themselves usually add some facial cleanser when washing their faces, because facial cleanser contains strong skin care and dirt removal ingredients. Different skin types should choose different facial cleansers, because each facial cleanser has different effects. Some people will experience redness on their face after using facial cleanser, so what should I do if my face stings and becomes red after washing with facial cleanser?

Why do I feel stinging on my face after using facial cleanser?

Sometimes we may feel stinging on our face when we use skin care products or facial cleansers. In fact, this may be because there is a problem with the skin, or the product is not suitable for you. Normally, there will be no tingling sensation on the face after using facial cleanser, so if you have tingling sensation on the face after using facial cleanser, please pay attention to it. So what are the reasons for tingling sensation on the face after using facial cleanser?

1. Dehydrated skin

Facial cleanser is used to clean the face, but it also takes away some moisture from the face, which is a normal phenomenon. If your skin is already very dry and dehydrated, you will feel a stinging sensation on your face when you use facial cleanser to wash your face. The stinging sensation will be more likely to occur if your skin is drier.

2. The cleanser is too strong

There are many types of facial cleansers. Some facial cleansers are too strong in cleansing power. Long-term use can easily cause the skin's stratum corneum to become thinner, resulting in symptoms of allergies and tingling on the face. The most basic function of facial cleanser is to clean the skin, and because the ingredients contained in it are different, the cleaning intensity is also different. What I want to tell you here is that facial cleansers containing soap ingredients have the strongest cleansing power, and people with normal skin types should use less of this type of facial cleanser.

For people with rough skin, facial cleansers containing soap ingredients are more suitable. This type of facial cleanser has a strong cleansing power and can help you remove oil and dirt from the skin. It will take away some moisture from the skin while cleaning and can also help the skin exfoliate.

3. Facial allergy

If you feel stinging on your face after using facial cleanser, another reason is that your face is allergic. Some people are prone to facial allergies. When this happens, it is best to observe how long the stinging on the face lasts. If the stinging persists for a long time or there is also redness of the skin, then it is definitely a skin allergy.

If you are allergic to facial cleanser, it is likely that one of the ingredients in the facial cleanser is not suitable for your skin, or you have sensitive skin.

4. Choosing the wrong facial cleanser

As mentioned above, everyone’s skin type is different, and the types of facial cleansers are also different. Therefore, the facial cleanser suitable for each skin type is also different. It is best for friends to choose the facial cleanser that suits them according to their skin type.

Tips: If you feel any discomfort when using facial cleanser, it is best to wash it off immediately to avoid continued irritation to the skin. You should also moisturize your skin regularly so that it is not dehydrated and will not easily cause allergies or irritation when using facial cleanser.

After reading this, I believe you will understand why you feel stinging on your face after using facial cleanser. If you also experience tingling after using facial cleanser, I hope you can pay attention to it~
