YOGYAKARTA Although both face sanitizers, the public must know the difference between face cleaners and facial washers in the world of beauty. Both are used for the same use but in different cases. So what are the differences between the two face cleaners?

It must be noted that face cleaners and facilities are both used to treat beauty and facial health. However, there is a fundamental difference that can be seen from the two products, namely as follows.

Face wash is facial cleansing soap made with basic ingredients of water and soap. This product is usually in the form of gels, foams, to solids. When you are face wash, foam will appear so you need to rinse your face with water after use.

While the face cleaner is usually in the form of a liquid that is more dilute than a face wash and does not contain foam like a face wash. However, there is also a face cleaner product in the shape of a gel. When sneering the face cleaner on your face, you don't need to rinse it with water.

In general, the function is actually the same. However, each product is focused on different conditions.

Face wash is used to clean the face of dirt, dust, or pollution that sticks to the face. This product is used to clean the pores of deep skin so that the face is cleaner.

Meanwhile, face cleaners are usually used to clean makeup or beauty products used on the face such as powder. Face cleaners are used after the face gets makeup throughout the day. This cleaning fluid also helps soften the skin while avoiding dry skin.

The use of face wash is usually used when the face is in a humid condition. You can wash your face with water first before applying a face wash. After that, massage evenly across the face. When finished, you can wash the foam that appears with running water.

While the health wash is usually used with cotton. You can wet clean cotton with a facility wash fluid and then apply the cotton to your face evenly. The dirt and make-up will be lifted and leave scars on the cotton. Do the cleaning of the face repeatedly until the face is clean from makeup. After completion you don't need to rinse your face with water. However, you can wipe your face with a clean dry cotton to perfect the cleaning process.

Face wash contains an astringent, which is a skin care product that contains isopopil, a type of alcohol. Therefore, the use of face wash should be considered and adjusted to your skin type because it has the potential to make the skin dryer.

Meanwhile, Face cleaners do not contain materials that are able to irritate the skin so that it is safe to apply to various skin types. In addition, the face cleaner is able to increase skin moisture. This means that if you have dry facial skin type, it will be suitable for using this type of cleaning product.
