The concept of cleansing is straightforward - to clean the skin from "unhealthy" substances. The purpose of a cleanser, or soap, is to surround, loosen, and make it easy to remove dirt, debris, germs, excess oils, and left-over products applied to the skin. Unfortunately, not knowing when to cleanse, or what to use to cleanse, can lead to dry or irritated skin.
We offer several cleansers that are extremely efficient at cleansing your face as well as gentle. They will not dry out your skin, as other cleansers have a tendency to do. Click here to see our different cleansers.
Washing your face is probably the best thing you can do keep your face clean. You should really wash your face at least two times per day - morning and evening. To wash your face properly, please apply a dimes worth of cleanser to your palms, rub them together, and apply them to your face. Rinse your face at least 5 to 6 times, or 30 seconds. Yes, 30 seconds!

But did you know this damage also occurs when you walk from your house to your car or sit next to a window during the day? Even those little bits of exposure add up over the years and can cause wrinkles, dark spots and skin cancer.
