What Dry Skin Needs from a Cleanser
Dry skin requires extra care when cleansing. A good cleanser for dry skin should:
- Maintain moisture: Avoid stripping the skin of its natural oils.
- Be gentle: Prevent irritation or disruption to the skin barrier.
- Include humectants: Attract and retain moisture.
Let’s see how our Cleansing Oil and Foaming Face Washes check all these boxes.
Why Our Cleansing Oil is the Best for Dry Skin
Cleansing oils are a game-changer for dry skin. Unlike traditional cleansers, they work by dissolving dirt, makeup, and impurities without disrupting your skin’s natural oils.
Key Ingredients:
- Golden Jojoba Oil (Simmondsia chinensis): A lightweight, non-comedogenic oil that mimics the skin’s natural sebum, helping to balance and moisturize without clogging pores.
- Sweet Almond Oil (Prunus dulcis): Packed with vitamins A and E, it soothes and nourishes dry, sensitive skin.
- Extra Virgin Olive Oil (Olea europaea): A deeply hydrating oil rich in antioxidants to combat dryness and environmental damage.
- Vitamin E (Tocopherol): A powerful antioxidant that supports skin barrier repair and locks in moisture.
Why It Works:
- Moisture Retention: Unlike foaming cleansers that can dry out the skin, the oil gently lifts away impurities while leaving behind a protective layer of hydration.
- Microbiome-Friendly: It cleanses without disrupting your skin’s natural microbiome, which is critical for maintaining a healthy barrier.
- Multifunctional: It’s gentle enough for everyday use yet effective at removing heavy makeup and sunscreen.
The Benefits of Foaming Face Washes for Dry Skin
If you love the sensation of a water-based cleanser but worry about dryness, our Foaming Face Washes are the perfect solution. They’re pH-balanced, gentle, and enriched with moisturizing ingredients like glycerin to keep your skin hydrated.
What Makes Them Different?
Our Foaming Face Washes are designed to cleanse effectively without harsh sulfates. Instead, they use naturally derived surfactants like:
- Coco Glucoside: A mild cleanser derived from coconut that gently removes dirt without irritation.
- Cocamidopropyl Betaine: Another coconut-based ingredient known for its ability to cleanse while being gentle on the skin.
The Hydrating Hero: Glycerin
All of our Foaming Face Washes contain glycerin, a humectant that draws moisture into the skin. Glycerin helps maintain hydration during cleansing, making these face washes a great option for dry skin.
