Can makeup remover cleanser replace facial cleanser?

Skin care is a long journey and the process is rather complicated. Therefore, for the sake of convenience, many people use makeup remover instead of facial cleanser. After removing makeup and washing their face, they start skin care directly. However, some people are worried about whether makeup remover can directly replace facial cleanser to wash away the skin thoroughly. In fact, makeup remover is mainly designed for makeup on the face, while facial cleanser is to clean the dirt and oil in the pores to make the skin clearer. The two have different functions, so it is best not to replace them.

Can makeup remover be used as facial cleanser?

No, makeup remover certainly cannot be used as facial cleanser. Makeup remover is designed for the oily makeup, while facial cleanser is mainly used to clean skin oil and pores. The two have very different functions and effects, so they cannot replace each other!

The efficacy of makeup remover

The makeup remover has a balance of water and oil. The oily ingredients in it can remove makeup effectively based on the principle of oil dissolving oil; the water-based ingredients can remove makeup while ensuring the skin's moisturization and hydration, so it is very suitable for dry skin and combination dry skin.

The efficacy of facial cleanser

The skin is not 100% clean after removing makeup. There will still be some dirt left on the skin from makeup or other factors. At this time, you can use facial cleanser to thoroughly remove the remaining dirt and allow the oil to naturally separate from the skin surface. This will allow subsequent skin care work to proceed more smoothly and skin care products can be better absorbed by the skin.

The order of using makeup remover and facial cleanser

1. Keep your hands and face dry, use both hands to preheat two coin-sized amounts of makeup remover, and gently rub them on your face.

2. Use your fingertips to massage your face, gently making circles from the inside to the outside. This will ensure that the makeup remover can dissolve the makeup more completely.

3. After wetting your hands, continue massaging on your face to emulsify the makeup remover. When the makeup remover changes from transparent to white, emulsification is completed and you can rinse it off with a cotton pad or running water.

4. Finally, use facial cleanser to clean your face. Be careful not to leave the facial cleanser on your face for more than one minute.
