Tips for Making Cleanser
Identify Your Skin Type
Before making your cleanser, you must identify your skin type. A normal skin would mean there is no excess oil or dryness on the skin. Oily skin is usually one which creates excess sebum and clogs pores. Dry skin is one which is flaky and also damaged.
Cleanser Consistencies
There can be multiple consistencies of a cleanser. It ranges from thick and creamy to gel-like. If you have normal skin type, you can choose whichever cleanser you are comfortable with. If you have oily skin, prefer gel-based cleanser. If you have dry skin, choose a moisturiser-based cleanser.
Watch the Cleansing Time
A lot of people recommend cleansing the face for a long time as this helps in removing the dirt from the pores. However, we say limit the cleansing time. Prolonged cleansing can make the skin extremely dry, causing the pores to produce excess sebum which clogs them. Go easy on the cleansing time.
Keep sulphate Away
Sulphate is the ingredients which strip the natural oil from the skin. Make sure that when you make your cleanser, you keep the products contaning sulphates far away
