Cleansers & Toners Questions Answered

Which Sknfed cleanser should I choose?

Organic Cleansing Lotion is our gentlest and most versatile option. It is suitable for even very sensitive skin and effectively removes daily impurities, make-up and even waterproof mascara without leaving the skin feeling stripped. Organic Superseed Cleansing Oil dissolves make-up, SPF and excess oil; Organic Turmeric Soap Bar is a brightening botanical cleanse; and Organic Charcoal Cleansing Bar is ideal for oily or congested-looking skin. All four cleansers should be thoroughly rinsed off with water.

What is double cleansing and do I need to do it?

Double cleansing means using an oil-based cleanser first, followed by a gentle second cleanse. It can be helpful in the evening when wearing make-up or water-resistant SPF, but it is not essential for everyone. One thorough, gentle cleanse may be enough.

Can a cleansing oil be used on oily skin?

Yes. Oil cleansers can dissolve make-up, SPF and excess oil without requiring harsh scrubbing. Massage onto dry skin, emulsify with water and rinse thoroughly. Follow with a second gentle cleanser only if your skin needs it.

What does Organic Rose Water do?

Organic Rose Water helps rebalance the skin’s pH after cleansing, gently soothes irritated or uncomfortable skin and provides a light layer of hydration. It can be misted onto clean skin as a toner, used to refresh the complexion throughout the day, or applied before serum, face cream and facial oil to help the following products spread comfortably.

Should I cleanse my face morning and evening?

Most people benefit from cleansing in the evening to remove SPF, make-up and daily build-up. In the morning, a lighter cleanse or water rinse may be enough, especially for dry or sensitive skin. Adjust according to how your skin feels.

How can I avoid tightness after cleansing?

Use lukewarm rather than hot water, avoid excessive scrubbing and choose a gentle cleanser. Apply hydrating and moisturising products while the skin is still slightly damp. Persistent tightness may mean that your cleanser or cleansing frequency is too harsh, or that your skin barrier is compromised. Choose our gentle Organic Cleansing Lotion, follow with your face moisturiser and finish with Organic Botanical Elixir if your skin needs extra nourishment.
