Mildly acidic and mildly alkaline cleansing

It seems that 'mildly acidic' has been one of the most influential terms in the cosmetics industry over the past few years. While mildly acidic cleansing products designed to balance our skin's pH can certainly be helpful, using only mildly acidic foam cleansers with weak cleansing power can cause sebum and dead skin cells to accumulate, potentially leading to breakouts.

Especially for those with oily or combination skin, please use a mildly alkaline cleanser 2-3 times a week. If you have oily and sensitive skin, using strong alkaline products every day can actually be harsh on your skin.
