Cleansers

A face cleanser is a skincare product specifically designed to remove dirt, makeup, excess oil, and other impurities from the skin’s surface. Its primary function is to clean the face by removing buildup accumulated throughout the day, helping to prevent clogged pores, which can lead to the formation of blemishes. Cleansers also play a key role in maintaining a balanced skin pH, which is vital for preserving the skin barrier.

Lancôme cleansers are formulated with ingredients like antioxidants, which help protect skin against free radical damage, and hydrating components, like glycerin and hyaluronic acid, which enhance moisture retention. Choose a cleanser that matches your skin type to not only clean but also nourish your skin, promoting a clear and radiant complexion that is equipped to withstand daily stressors.

Using a facial cleanser every day is typically recommended as part of a consistent skincare routine. Cleansers help remove dirt, oil, and impurities that accumulate on the skin throughout the day, preventing the buildup of substances that can clog pores and lead to acne. Daily cleansing can promote visibly fresh and vibrant skin by helping facilitate the natural turnover of skin cells. Look for a cleanser that is suitable for your specific skin type, gentle, and safe for daily use. If you have sensitive skin, consider consulting with a board-certified dermatologist.

As skin ages, it tends to lose natural moisture and elasticity, becoming drier and more sensitive. For skin over 45, look for a gentle, hydrating or foaming cleanser that effectively removes impurities without stripping the skin of its vital moisture. Mature skin can also benefit from double cleansing, a popular cleansing method that’s known to be ultra-effective at melting the day away, yet ultra-gentle on skin, and doesn’t require scrubbing that can be harsh on skin:

1st Cleanse: cleansing balm or oil to easily lift and remove makeup, excess oil, impurities.
2nd Cleanse: cleansing face wash to wash everything off the skin.
