My skin condition has been all over the place lately, so I'm wondering if I should switch my foam cleanser 🥲
In the past, I didn't really care as long as the cleansing power was decent, but lately, my skin feels like it dries out quickly after washing my face, so I think choosing the right product has become more important.
Since I use this product every day, morning and evening, I was especially concerned about whether irritation might accumulate. I tend to get breakouts immediately if I get the wrong product, so I find myself being extra careful when choosing one.
I've been looking around for mildly acidic foam cleansers because I've heard they're good these days, but I'm worried that when I actually use them, they might not lather well or feel like they don't cleanse effectively. 🤔 On the other hand, products with rich lather have good cleansing power but sometimes leave my skin feeling tight after washing, so it's not easy to find a product that strikes just the right balance.
I've heard that products that cleanse pores and sebum thoroughly without damaging the skin barrier are good, so I'm focusing on those kinds of products, but there are so many types that it seems even harder to choose.
Personally, I prefer a feeling of slight moisture remaining after washing my face rather than a squeaky-clean finish 🙂 That way, I feel like my subsequent skincare products absorb better, so I consider this an important factor as well.
If you happen to have any foam cleansers that worked well for sensitive and dry skin like mine, please recommend them! I would also appreciate it if you could share your personal experiences using them so I can take them into consideration when choosing one. 😊
