Face Wash Based On Your Skin Type

Here's a guide to choosing the right face wash for your skin type

Oily skin

If you have oily skin, then opt for a gel-based face wash rich in Vitamin C as it helps reduce clogged pores and washes away excess sebum

Dry skin

For dry skin types, creamy and moisturising face wash works well. It has a thick consistency that helps cleanse your pores and hydrates your skin thoroughly

Sensitive skin

Clay face wash is good for sensitive skin as it does not contain harsh chemical ingredients or cleansing agents such as parabens, sulfates, alcohol, etc. However, make sure to check the description before buying one

All skin types

Foaming face washes and bar cleansers are suitable for all skin types. Foaming face wash is usually between gel and cream cleansers that remove impurities from your skin

Bar cleansers are soap-free moisturising and cleansing bars that remove dirt and excess oil from your skin. They do not strip away skin's natural oil and keep them hydrated

Before trying a face wash, read the description and and try a patch test on your skin to check for reactions. Make sure to consult a dermatologist if you have skin problems
