The ultimate skin cleansing for the face: tips and tricks

You laugh, experience stress, go on sunny vacations, and sometimes stay up late. Life happens as it does, and it leaves all its stories written on your face. The right skin care enhances your natural beauty and provides your skin with all the essential nutrients it needs to glow. This also includes proper facial cleansing.

 

Why is it important to cleanse the skin on your face?

Your face is your calling card. It is the first thing others see. A face reveals an incredible amount about a person – and that’s not just referring to facial expressions. How well the skin is cared for is often visible at first glance.

Do you take care of yourself? Do you value a well-groomed appearance? Do you know what your skin accomplishes every single day and show your appreciation by giving something back to it? Of course, this is not the only reason why high-quality facial cleansing is so worthwhile. The following benefits are also worth mentioning:

  • It increases the skin’s moisture content.

  • It removes dead skin cells.

  • It helps prevent blemishes.

  • It strengthens the skin’s natural barrier.

The valuable benefits of thorough facial cleansing in detail

The moisture content of facial skin plays an important role in its elasticity. The higher it is, the more firmness the skin possesses. As a result, fine lines are plumped up, and your face appears radiant and fresh. Removing dead skin cells also plays a key role in this process, as dry patches rob the skin of its elasticity.

In addition, they can impair the skin’s self-healing abilities. Minor injuries or inflammations then take longer than average to heal, and the risk of infection increases. Dry skin tends to crack, making it easier for bacteria and viruses to penetrate and cause blemishes or even skin diseases. The risk of eczema also rises.

It’s not only the removal of dead skin cells that helps prevent blemishes. Pimples and blackheads can also develop when excess dirt and sebum are not removed for too long. They clog the pores, but the glands in the skin don’t simply stop producing sebum.

They continue to produce it but can no longer release it through the blocked pores. Skin impurities are then inevitable. Only thorough and regular cleansing tailored to your skin type can address the problem at its root.

 

Welche Schritte sollte die Hautreinigung im Gesicht umfassen?

Zunächst entfernen Sie Make-up, das Sie unter Umständen tragen, von Ihrem Gesicht. Befeuchten Sie Ihr Gesicht anschliessend mit klarem Wasser und wenden Sie dann ein Waschgel an oder milde Tenside/Syndets . Es eignet sich für die tägliche Verwendung.

Je nach Bedarf ersetzen Sie es ein- bis zweimal pro Woche durch ein sanftes Peeling. Es löst abgestorbene Hautschüppchen vorsichtig ab und erweist sich vor allem dann als sinnvoll, wenn Sie zu Unreinheiten neigen. Trocknen Sie Ihr Gesicht dann mit einem sauberen und weichen Handtuch ab.

Führen Sie dabei tupfende Bewegungen aus und reiben Sie das Handtuch nicht über Ihr Gesicht. Das könnte zu Irritationen führen. Im Anschluss beruhigt ein Gesichtswasser die Haut und löst letzte Verschmutzungen ab.

Nun ist es Zeit für die Pflege. Eine Tages- bzw. Nachtcreme, die zu Ihrem Hauttyp passt, kommt jetzt an die Reihe. Ist stellenweise eine intensivere Versorgung notwendig, dann eignet sich der Einsatz von speziellen Salben, beispielsweise mit Zinkzusatz. Das Verhältnis Wasser zu Lipid ist vom aktuellen Hautzustand abhängig (Phasen gerecht). Je trockener die Haut, desto lipidreicher soll eine Evolution oder Creme sein. Umgekehrt verringert sich der Lipidanteil, wenn die Haut nur leicht trocken oder stabilisiert erscheint.

Nicht zu vergessen sind die Lippen. Vor allem bei trockener Umgebungsluft ist eine zusätzliche Lippenpflege, zum Beispiel in Form eines Balsams (Lippenbalsams) empfehlenswert.

 

What products does dline® offer for facial skin cleansing?

Do you wish for pleasantly soft and supple skin that radiates vitality and glow? Then make sure to choose high-quality facial cleansing products that suit your individual skin type. At dline®, we offer you a comprehensive range of different skin care products.

After thoroughly cleansing your face, nourish it with our BL® BasicLotion. It stabilises your skin’s moisture levels and protects it from drying out. TIP: If your face requires only a small amount of lipids, we recommend gently massaging a small amount of BL® Basic Lotion into still-damp facial skin. This enhances the cooling and absorption effect and prevents excessive lipid replenishment.

Special note: All dline® skin creams and lotions are available both with and without perfume (at the same price). This is especially important for very sensitive skin or people with allergies.

Does your skin need more moisture? Then choose our LL® LipoLotion with a lipid content of 30%. This lotion is particularly popular for mature skin from the age of 40.

For very dry and flaky skin, we especially recommend our rich NCR® NutrientCream with 40% lipids.

For dry and itchy skin, we recommend our CC® CoolingCream with menthol. Allergy sufferers can opt for our CC® Cooling Cream without menthol.

Special note: All our lotions and creams are enriched with several natural plant oils, which are naturally high in linolenic acids and bioactive substances.

If your skin is prone to blemishes, we recommend our PickelEx® Solutionforte. It has a broad antimicrobial effect, removes excess sebum, and soothes the skin. Apply the solution daily after washing your face using a cotton pad. For stronger irritations or pimples, apply a thin layer of PickelEx® Gel to the affected areas after cleansing with the solution.

If certain areas of skin are particularly irritated, dry, or even macerated (softened), apply our ZCR® Zinc Cream. It forms a stable protective film and allows your skin to regenerate undisturbed.

Care for your lips with our LPB® Lip Balm. It provides intense moisture and offers long-lasting protection.

For the care and protection of your hands, we recommend our HL® Hydro Lotion.

As a special product, we also recommend our MC® Mammacare without lanolin for nipple care, especially during breastfeeding.
