This largely depends on your skin type and lifestyle. If you struggle with dry skin, aim to wash your face at least once a day with warm (but not hot) water. If you exercise regularly, or have a more oily skin type, you may need to cleanse more often.

There are many different formulations of facial cleansers, including cleansing balms, makeup remover wipes, micellar waters and more. Determining which is best for you is largely dependent on personal preference. Just be sure you’re purchasing a product formulated for your skin type.

Dry skin will benefit the most from facial cleansers that have skin-softening ingredients like ceramides, shea butter, rosehip oil, and vitamin C. If you have oily or combination skin, a lightweight cleanser that can be used to refresh your skin throughout the day is a smart choice.

All skin types will benefit from a sulfate-free, soap-free formula that cleanses without stripping your skin and is infused with anti-aging ingredients like collagen, hyaluronic acid and ceramides. Exfoliating once or twice a week is also a good idea for all skin types to keep your complexion glowing.
