Do you know your biological age?
The age on your birth certificate and your biological age can vary. Many people live in bodies that are older than they are.
Different factors can cause accelerated aging, and air pollution is one of them. By thoroughly cleansing your skin from any built-up chemicals and debris, you can help maintain a youthful appearance. However, you’ll have to find the right products and create a skincare routine that matches your skin type.
What type of face wash should you use, and how often? Read on to find out.
How often should you wash your face? It’s best to wash your face in the morning and at night.
If you’re planning on working out or getting sweaty, you might need a third wash. If your schedule is extra busy and you can only wash once daily, do so before bed.
All-day long, your skin collects grime and oil. A nightly wash is the best way to remove everything from your skin that doesn’t belong. A nighttime wash is essential if you’re wearing makeup.
What type of skin care products should you use when you wash your face? You’ll be happy to know that you don’t need to run out and buy 10 or 15 products to build a skincare routine. Instead, you only need a few products to get back to basics.
Before making any purchases, you’ll want to determine your skin care type. From there, you can decide whether you need sensitive, oily, dry, or combination skin products. You might also have normal skin, which is neither oily nor dry.
If you have oily skin, your face will probably have a shiny appearance. Oily skin is usually greasy to the touch. A lot of the oils will collect throughout your T-zone.
The T-Zone is the area between the forehead, nose, and chin. Often, individuals with oily skin will have enlarged pores. The large pores can make you more prone to acne breakouts.
If you have flaky or rough skin, it’s probably dry. Dry skin usually feels tight and rigid. Dry skin is more likely to show visible lines, and it might also be itchy.
Normal skin isn’t flaky, greasy, or tight. The pores are usually tiny, and the texture is smooth. Normal skin might be prone to sensitivity or blemishes.
Combination skin will usually have an oily area in the t-zone. However, the cheeks will be either normal or dry.
Finally, sensitive skin can occur with any of the skin types. Someone with oily skin can have sensitive skin, and so can someone with dry skin. No matter your skin, sensitivity can show up as an itchy, burning, or dry sensation.
Sensitive skin is usually more vulnerable to harsh chemicals and cleaning products. By determining what triggers your skin sensitivity, you’ll be able to avoid products that contain those ingredients. You might also have to change your environment to reduce exposure to triggering skin agents.
Let’s say that you have sensitive or dry skin. How often should you wash your face?
Keeping up with the 2-day wash might irritate your sensitive skin. It could cause blemishes to appear or excessive drying to occur. That’s why we suggest finding a gentle cleansing formula you can use at night.
Instead of using the formula in the morning, stick with warm water. At night time, you can use a gentle hydrating cleanser.
A hydrating cleanser usually doesn’t lather, which is excellent for moisturizing your skin. One of the best face wash for dry skin is oil-based cleansers.
If you have oily skin, you might be tempted to overwash it. However, just because your skin’s oily doesn’t mean you should be exceeding the twice-a-day wash limit. Washing 3 or more times a day could dry your skin.
If you dry out your skin, you could kick the oil production into overdrive. Your body notices when the skin starts to get dry. To help out, your body begins producing extra sebum.
Sebum is an oily substance that helps protect skin from the outside world. However, too much sebum can cause excess oil and make you more prone to acne breakouts.
What’s the solution to cleansing your face if it’s still oily after 2 washes? You’ll need to switch up your products. Choose a face wash for oily skin that has suitable hydroxy acids.
If you have combination skin, almost any cleanser will work. You’ll want to stick to washing your face twice daily and use high-quality products. You’ll have to pay a little more for high-quality products, but it’s worth the investment.
High-quality face washing products can remove impurities, deep clean pores, and leave your skin feeling great. If, after washing your face, your skin feels hydrated, cleansed, and rejuvenated, you’ll know you have a great product.
You should also pay attention to foaming cleansers. Foaming cleansers are a great way to remove excess oil and gently dry skin patches.
Now you know that twice a day is usually the perfect amount for washing your face. However, you might be wondering what would happen if you were to over or under-wash. If you under wash, it’ll be difficult for your skin to get the care it needs.
For instance, if you’re putting moisturizer on during the day, it might not be reaching the deeper layers of your skin. Dirt and grime can block skin products from being effective.
Alternatively, if you overwash, you might cause your skin to become tight or dry. As mentioned earlier, the excess dryness can result in extra oil, which can cause acne breakouts. Furthermore, excess washing can lead to a disbalance to the “healthy bacteria ” on your skin’s surface opening it up to harmful bacteria and serious skin issues.
We suggest buying high-quality skin care products and following a twice-a-day cleaning schedule. If you need a little bit more TLC, reach out to a dermatologist for advice. Everybody’s skin is different, and you might have unique needs.

We’re committed to formulating with natural, organically-derived, and skin-friendly synthetics while excluding popular “good feeling” and potentially harmful compounds to provide the best skincare solutions.
“It is easy to get hooked on conventional products, with inviting perfumes and the instantly pleasant skin feeling. The sooner you understand that those sensations are short-lived the better! Choose Clean Beauty and allow the science backed ingredients time to work wonders on your skin.”
Our products’ superiority has been proven in a controlled study on 50 volunteers where it was shown that four-week product use leads to a significant increase in skin moisture levels (39%), increased skin elasticity (50%), and a decrease in the appearance of wrinkles (23%).
Other beneficial effects include decrease in skin sensitivity, increase in skin cleanliness, evenness of the skin tone, decrease in acne formation.
This study serves as proof of the skin’s gradual return of its protective layer, integrity, and balance. All study results have been published in a peer reviewed journal as well as the full study report.
“Putting all science aside, we are most proud of our users’ testimonials. All tested volunteers claimed visible and tangible improvement in skin feel and appearance.”
The greatest breakthrough discovery we stumbled upon is that skincare and cosmetics should not be sensational.
Personal care should be comprehensive, accessible, and efficient, just as all solutions that come from nature are.
We are often faced with labels such as anti aging skin care, organic skin care, natural skincare products, which lack the necessary explanation… What do these phrases actually mean?

Today’s trends in skincare require the use of synthetic active ingredients which interact with the skin. Our approach is to distinguish natural alternatives, which mimic the skins native repair mechanism and are more efficient and ecologically sound.
Translating solutions from nature into industrial settings is hardly an easy task, but it’s one we enjoy undertaking.
We have screened 500+ different wild probiotic strains from the nature, to find the most powerful ones.
