Your face wash is the one product you use every single day, twice a day. Pick the wrong one and skin can feel tight, greasy or uncomfortable. Pick the right one and every serum you apply afterwards works on a clean, balanced base.
First, find your skin type
Wash your face with plain water, pat dry and wait an hour without applying anything. Then check:
- Shiny all over: oily skin.
- Shiny only on the forehead, nose and chin: combination skin.
- Tight or flaky: dry skin.
- Comfortable: normal skin.
Oily and acne-prone skin
Look for a foaming face wash that helps remove excess oil without stripping skin. Try Aviacne-S Face Wash or Aloe Vera Neem Face Wash.
Combination skin
You need something refreshing but balanced. Lemon Apricot Face Wash helps remove excess oil from the T-zone and leaves skin feeling soft.
Dry and normal skin
Choose a gentle, low-foam cleanser and use lukewarm, not hot, water. Mulberry Apple Face Wash leaves skin feeling soft and smooth.
Dull or tanned-looking skin
Papaya Grape Face Wash and Haldi Chandan Face Wash help wash away the look of dullness for brighter-looking skin.
How to wash properly
- Wash twice a day: morning and night.
- Use a coin-sized amount and massage for 30 to 60 seconds.
- Rinse well and pat, do not rub, dry.
- Follow with your serum and, in the morning, sunscreen.
