What's the difference between washing your face with soap and washing your face with facial cleanser?

This question is actually hard to say, and it is not as simple as imagined.

The key question lies in a very essential thing: what is soap and what is facial cleanser?

In fact, the industry is developing rapidly now. There are many kinds of soap and facial cleanser, many of which have overlapping functions and components, so it is not easy to judge which is better. When you say soap, what kind of soap do you mean? Is it traditional soap or those nutritious soaps now? Are you talking about soap-based facial cleanser or amino acids? Simple nouns can no longer represent the whole category, just as you ask: Is a person kind? This kind of question is too broad to answer.

Traditionally, soap is a neutralization product of oil and alkali. Its manufacturing process is very simple, with a long history and basic cleaning ability. According to the different kinds of grease and alkali, it has different cleaning ability. Generally speaking, soap has strong cleaning ability and great irritation to the skin. After washing, you will feel tight and suitable for oily skin.

Now all kinds of handmade soaps are popular, and the process is basically the same. They can be made at home, that is, neutralizing various oils and alkalis, and then adding essence to cool and shape.

The above is about traditional soap. Now some soaps are no longer this ingredient, and soaps can be milder. For example, Clinique, a gentle cleansing soap, does not use simple saponification reaction, but actually makes facial cleanser into a solid, which can no longer be called real soap.

The same is true of Dove's soap, which is not soap in essence, but gentle facial cleanser.

Let's talk about facial cleanser again

In fact, the most traditional facial cleanser is also the same production process as soap, but the water content is relatively high and it is made into liquid, so if we compare the traditional facial cleanser with soap, their essence is the same.

However, amino acid facial cleanser has become more popular in the past two years, so facial cleanser has become complicated. The same name, but the formula is completely different. The cleaning ability, moisturizing ability or other functions are too poor to be considered the same thing just because they are all called facial cleanser.

Although amino acid facial cleanser will not feel tight after washing, it is more suitable for consumers with dry skin, and it is not easy to wash off all the oil on the skin, effectively protecting the skin barrier. Actually, autumn and winter are more suitable. In addition, many amino acid facial cleansers have added some moisturizing agents, and some moisturizing ingredients will remain on the face after washing, achieving a double effect.

So, in fact, this question is inconclusive. Everything depends on your own needs and the specific ingredients of the product. Don't just pick up a product and use it. This is very bad for your skin.

Traditional soap is actually the result of a simple chemical reaction between alkali and fat. The generated sodium stearate is what we call soap, and it is also the main component of natural handmade soap. Soap has a strong cleaning ability, and sodium stearate itself is alkaline and harmful to our skin. It is generally not recommended to use on facial skin. Although other parts of the skin are not suitable for use.

The soap we see in the supermarket is actually not a traditional "soap", but a modern synthetic product with soap as the main component. It is milder than ordinary traditional soap, but because it contains sodium stearate, its pH value is often very high. Scientists tried to reduce the pH value of this synthetic soap to neutral, but so far this technology has not been successful. In other words, soap, whether it is natural handmade soap or "soap" in the supermarket, is not a good choice for cleaning facial skin. Generally speaking, compared with soap, facial cleanser is relatively mild and will not hurt the skin as strongly as soap. However, many facial cleansers are also different in gentleness.

In cleansing, we should not only choose mild products, but also learn to use them correctly so as not to harm the skin.

Generally speaking, soap is the most commonly used product for body cleaning. The main component of soap is sodium fatty acid, which is basically oil and has strong alkalinity. If used for cleansing, it may cause some harm to the skin.

Facial cleanser, as a product specially used for cleaning face, is composed of oil phase, water phase, surfactant, humectant and other components in liquid form. After fully wetting and foaming with water, it has good decontamination and emulsification effects on dirt on skin surface.

If you are used to washing your face with soap, you may wish to choose handmade soap containing natural glycerin, which is better for your skin.

Fresh, lush, Champs-Elysé es Grey, etc. There are handmade soaps specially used for cleansing, which are not only high in value, but also more moisturizing and more friendly to facial skin.

In facial cleanser, olefin B 12 is the first to relieve foam and cleanse mousse.

Directly pressing out is foam, which is very convenient without rubbing and foaming. Its PH value is very close to the skin condition of 6.0. As a cleanser, lazy cancer patients get up very conveniently.

If you have a girl with quiet skin, you can also try the German family rhyme facial cleanser.

Personally, I like German skin care products very much. Most of them are pure natural.

This facial cleanser is different from other facial cleansers. It contains no foam and particles. Squeeze a little and you can use it all over your face. Unlike other facial cleansers, it can be rubbed on the forehead, cheeks and other parts like toner, and it can be washed off in about one minute. You will feel oily and comfortable after using it.

Personally, I think the difference is not very big. The most important thing is to choose the right product. Both have obvious effects on cleaning the face. You should choose different products according to your skin type.

As we all know, soap is very effective in degreasing and cleaning, so many people are using it. But it is precisely because of the excellent degreasing effect that it has a negative effect on the skin, which will destroy the protective film on the skin surface and make the skin fragile. Generally, the skin needs to maintain a balance between water and oil. If the oil is too clear, it will be unbalanced.

People with oily skin can use essential oil soap. Better essential oil soap generally contains protein, various vitamins and antibacterial agents, so it has natural ingredients, mild use, little irritation to the skin, and will not cause allergies to the skin. In addition, it has antibacterial effect and improves skin.

For dry and sensitive skin, you can choose organic nonionic facial cleanser, which is not tight after use and contains a variety of plant extracts. Non-ionic is a mild cleaning ingredient extracted from natural plants, which can effectively clean skin dirt and keep your skin in good condition.

In short, it is ok to choose products, whether it is soap or facial cleanser.

There are two kinds of cleansing products on the market according to their ingredients.

One is soap-based cleansing, and the other is of course non-saponified cleansing, that is, cleansing products with surfactant formula.

The interface of saponification formula is soap-based cleansing, including all kinds of soap, soap, popular handmade soap and soap-containing facial cleanser.

Their foam is rich, powerful and delicate, and their skin feels tight and dry after washing their faces.

Although soap-based products have strong cleaning ability, long-term use may irritate the skin, lead to water-oil imbalance, and make your skin very fragile. Long-term use is strongly recommended, and it can be used for deep cleaning occasionally.

There are many ingredients in facial cleanser, including amino acid cleansing, glycoside cleansing and soap-based cleansing.

Soap-based ingredients are one of the most harmful ingredients to the skin.

Of course, it depends on the ingredients! Because soap is synthesized by fatty acid and strong alkali, if lauric acid, myristic acid, stearic acid, sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide, triethanolamine and AMP appear behind the product, then the product must be a soap-based product.

As a person with bubble net, I always wash my face with bubbles, no matter facial cleanser or soap.

Soap pays more attention to cleaning, and the cleaning effect can be said to be the best among all skin cleaning products, without one. Various functional soaps with deep cleaning effect, such as Lanshutang antipruritic soap, Dorado bamboo charcoal handmade soap to remove blackheads, Man Ting soap to remove mites, Shanghai sulfur soap to remove acne, etc. It is as effective, cheap and practical as the professional skin care products of big brands. However, human skin is inherently weak acid, while soap is alkaline. If you wash your face with soap for a long time, it will lead to skin acid-base imbalance, dry skin peeling, dark yellow, acne and other problems.

I've used both. I have oily skin. Please give me a reference. Personally, I think it's better to use soap, but don't use shower gel, use special face soap, because it's too powerful and difficult to clean, so the key point is to use emulsion to replenish water after washing face soap, not too much, and squeeze as much toothpaste as possible, just wash it once every morning, not too much. Use facial cleanser if it's too troublesome, but it's definitely not as good as the above method. After all, facial cleanser is difficult to clean for oily skin.

Facial cleanser contains emulsifier and humectant, while soap contains a lot of soap machine; It is recommended to wash your face with pure plant handmade soap:

For example, Mo Xiaozhai's handmade soap.

Xiao Mo is making cold-ground soap by hand! Lightning is not soap-based soap, lightning is not essential oil soap, and lightning is not transparent soap. Burn it, see if it turns black, and see if it's true. The whole family, men, women and children, use these soaps to wash their faces, bathe and wash their hair [applause]

Xiao Mo's mature cold soap is handmade, so you won't feel tight after washing your face, and it won't be too wasteful to take a bath.

Oatmeal handmade soap: children can take a bath and wash their hair, sensitive skin and normal skin. Many children are taking a bath with rice shampoo [happy]

Rosehip oil handmade soap: children take a bath and wash their hair, and the skin is generally dark yellow, dry skin and normal skin.

Green tea: oily, acne skin, both men and women.

Hand-made cold soap for skin care products is not only a piece of soap, but also a daily skin care product. After long-term use, you will find that some previous skin problems have healed themselves, allergic reactions are less, dandruff cracks are gone, and skin elasticity is restored.

Why can't you wash your face in winter and moisten it clean? It feels super delicate and moist, even better than rose soap. Of course, everyone feels different, but don't ask me which is more beautiful and moist, honey goat soap or rose oil soap. I can't answer, just like asking me which is more beautiful, lemonade or rose petals. You can store some soap and wash whatever you want. All skin types can be used.

First of all, soap and facial cleanser have certain decontamination ability.

Then, although washing your face with soap gives people a refreshing feeling, it will destroy the pH of the skin, and long-term use will make the skin dry, peeling or oily.

Facial cleanser is very comfortable and gentle after washing, and there will be no problem in using facial cleanser for a long time.

Then someone will say, I wash my hands with soap every day! It can only be said that the skin on the hands and face is different, and the skin on the face is more delicate.
