Which Cleanser is Right for Your Skin?

If you subscribe to our Clean Beauty Skincare Box, you know we take our cleansers seriously. This year, we’ve featured Lovinah Ocean Rituals AHA+BHA Cleansing Balm in February, Bloomeffects’ Royal Tulip Cleansing Jelly in April, and the Votary Sensitive Cleansing Cream in our August Box.

A cleanser can make or break a skincare routine. It is the essential first step to skincare, but it is also so much more than that. With the right cleanser, taking care of your skin feels like a ritual. In the morning, it is a refreshing way to start the day. At night, it washes away all the remnants of the day, soothing your senses for rest and rejuvenation.

We like to rotate our cleansers depending on how our skin feels, the weather, whether we’re wearing makeup or not, and even based on our mood. Here, we’ve featured some of our favorite cleansers.

Typically, cleansing is the first step of both morning and nighttime skincare routines. However, it is completely okay to skip this step once if you feel your skin doesn’t need it.
