Oil-based face wash. Cleansing mask with shaving foam and soda

I gave up cleansing facial cleansers about five years ago. And although they shouted from the TV screens: “Do you have oily skin? Enlarged pores? Rashes? All you need to do is cleanse your skin deeply and thoroughly, and problems will melt like sebum under the action of our “vigorous” foams! This I exaggerate, of course. Although there is still some truth to this. In this post, we’ll figure out why the owners of oily skin should pay special attention to the composition of cleansing foams, whether there are soft foams for make-up removal and analyze the compositions of the most popular foams, the names of which you wrote to me in the Greenwashing project.

Are Facial Cleansers Necessary?

Not needed. Needed. This question is difficult to answer unambiguously. Rather, foams with strong surfactants that dry the skin are not needed. It doesn't matter if you have dry skin or not. If your skin is dry, tensides will make it even drier. If the skin is oily, then such foams will remove sebum, but since strong tensides, for example, SLS remove much more of this protective lubricant than necessary, the skin in a panic begins to produce even more sebum. The skin quickly becomes oily, shiny, the sebaceous glands become clogged and inflamed.

In addition, if foams with strong tensides, then it is unlikely to be suitable for "fat-free night care", which formed the philosophy of care for brands such as Dr. Hauschka or Martina Gebhard, and which I recommend wholeheartedly to all owners and owners of oily problem skin prone to inflammation. I wrote more about this care in the article "" and a little in the article "".

Cleansing Foams - CANDIDATES

For this post, I have selected the following cleansing facial cleansers:

1. by cosmetics Foam for washing
2. Spivak Cleansing Foam
3. Natura Siberica Foam-mousse for washing
4. L'Occitane Immortelle Facial Cleansing Foam
5. La Roche Posay Effaclar Facial cleansing foaming gel
6. Garnier Foam Gel Cleanser Main Effect
7. Bioderma Moisturizing facial cleansing foam
8. Shiseido Foam for deep cleansing of the skin
9. Clinique Facial cleansing foam for problematic skin
10. Himalaya Herbals Neem Facial Cleansing Foam
11. Clarins Face foam with cotton extract
12. Clean line Facial cleanser with chamomile

I analyzed the composition of the foams and gave them marks. What I paid attention to in the test:

• Does the product contain SLS (Sodium Laureth Sulfate), one of the most annoying surfactants?
• Does the product contain synthetic fragrances?
• Does the foam cleanser contain parabens? In fact, these cleansers rarely use parabens. But since it is important for you to know, I included this criterion.
• What other critical ingredients does it contain foam? Allergenic preservatives? Critical softeners? Controversial PEG derivatives?

The content of these ingredients influenced the rating, although for the fragrance content ( perfume) I did not lower the rating, because it is never clear what is hidden behind this word. The manufacturer is not obliged to disclose the "secret of the company". But in 99% the rule applies - if only the word is indicated perfume, the product most likely has a synthetic fragrance, if after the word there is *, and at the end of the list of ingredients the individual components of essential oils are indicated, for example, Linalool, Citral, etc., then behind the word perfume hiding a complex of essential oils. We click on the picture.

Cleansing Foams - RESULTS

Facial Cleansing Foams - SUMMARY

by-cosmetics, Spivak, Natura Siberica do not contain irritating surfactants, critical fragrances and preservatives, or other hazardous substances. Only in foam Natura Siberica there is a breather. These foams are rated GREAT .
1. in foam L'Occitane contains the preservative Phenoxyethanol. Despite the fact that it is classified as a critical preservative by almost all standards of organic cosmetics, the Soil Assosiation eco-standard still allows it. Therefore, when grading, it does not have the same weight as, for example, cato. Still in the foam is a derivative of PEG. Grade - FINE.
2. Foams from Garnier And La Roche Posay contain irritating SLS after which the skin of the face can dry out, PEG derivatives that can make the skin permeable to other substances from cosmetics and the environment. in foam Garnier contains the softener Polyqanternium-7, which is often used as a replacement for silicones, lays down like a film on the skin and does not allow it to “breathe”. As in foam Bioderma And Shiseido, there is also an allergenic Disodium EDTA. In addition, in the foam Bioderma contains the critical preservative Cetrimonium Bromide. Penka Shiseido does not contain SLS, but contains the equally annoying Poloxamer 184, created on the basis of derivatives of PEG. Evaluation of these foams - SATISFACTORILY .
3. In foam Himalaya Herbals Clarins And Clean line contains a critical highly allergenic preservative katon (two preservatives are hidden under these names methylchloroisothiazolinone And methylisothiazolinone, or one of them). This preservative has been shown to cause contact dermatitis. In addition, in foam Himalaya Herbal s and Clarins there is a dangerous preservative BHT that penetrates the body and is even suspected of affecting the development of the fetus. Well, the classics of the genre - Disodium EDTA, Tetrasodium EDTA, Phenoxyethanol, PEG derivatives ... Rating - UNSATISFACTORY .

• When buying facial foam, pay attention to the fact that the composition contains non-irritating tensides like Sodium Laureth Sulfate, Sodium Lauryl Sulfate, Ammonium Laryl Sulfate, and mild Coco Glucoside, Decyl Glucoside, Disodium Cocoyl Glutamate, Sodium Cocoyl Glutamate
• If you have very dry skin, then I recommend to try remove make-up milk or emulsion
• I do not recommend using the foam in the morning, during the night the skin did not have time to get dirty, all you skin secretions are water-soluble. Washing your face with foam in the morning, you break the acid-base balance of the skin.

Facial foam is a light cleanser suitable for all skin types, especially for oily or problem skin. It not only has a good effect on inflammation and acne, but is also able to even out skin tone and rid its deep layers of impurities accumulated during the day - dust and makeup.

Peculiarities

The main difference between facial foam and mousse, gel or other cleanser is its gentle, non-traumatic formula. Initially, the product is a pearlescent gel for washing, viscous in consistency. But when it comes into contact with water, the foam begins to actively lather - if you lather your face without additional means, it turns out to be thick, if with the help of a sponge or cognac - it is really soapy, airy and light.

Also, the foam is very economical - for one wash you need only an amount of a pea, and if you use a jar for whipping foam or a sponge - a total of less.

What is needed for

The foam is designed for high-quality deep and at the same time non-traumatic facial skin care. It is an excellent remedy for both teenagers and those with mature skin, suitable even for men.

The foam penetrates into the deep layers of the skin and, what is very important, does not injure, it is very gentle, but actively cleanses the pores and prevents the formation of new inflammations.

The tool is able to cleanse the skin of makeup and impurities, maintains the water balance of the skin and washes away dust. Due to deep penetration into the dermis, it exfoliates dead skin and unhealthy skin particles.

Kinds

Facial cleansers are divided into several types depending on their purpose. Of course, it is quite logical that foams are divided into those suitable for different types skin: oily, mixed (combination), dry, sensitive, problem and normal. However, one way or another, any type of dermis needs something specific. That is why, in addition, cleansers, whether it be gel, foam or mousse, are divided according to their functionality into:

1. Cleansing. The most common option, suitable for ladies who do not have any special skin problems. Includes antiseptic and soothing ingredients.
2. Oxygen. When used once or twice a week, they can replace a facial scrub - the cleansing is more gentle than that of a scrub, but still deeper than in the case of a simple cleansing foam.
3. Moisturizing. Suitable for sensitive, problematic (if used a couple of times a week) and dry skin. Includes active moisturizing and nourishing ingredients, but does not leave an unpleasant film on the skin.
4. For make-up removal. It differs from others in that it has a more gentle composition, thanks to which it can be used on sensitive skin around the eyes without the risk of irritation of the mucous membrane.
5. Mattifying. Ideal for oily, combination and problem skin. Its main advantage lies in the deep cleansing of pores, their closure and getting rid of oily sheen. Thanks to washing with this foam, its appearance can be delayed for a couple of hours.

Also, foams are divided by consistency.

1. Thick paste in tubes, bottles or jars. The best one can be considered the one that needs to be whipped on its own, or better with the help of a sponge or a face wash.
2. Gel consistency in vials and tubes. As well as thick paste requires foaming with the addition of water.
3. In the form of air mousse. This foam is packed in a bottle with a pump dispenser and pre-whipped. The most uneconomical option, and the foam is not as elastic and dense as in the other two options.

Compound

The higher in the list of ingredients a component is located, the greater its amount is contained in the composition. As a rule, the first positions in the list are water (thermal or mineral, water-based products are the most common) and various lathering substances, as well as extracts - green tea, chamomile, milk.

Further, the composition differs from the purpose of the foam. In products for mature skin, placenta, hyaluronic acid can quite deservedly be present, snail foams with pantohematogen or coenzyme Q10 are especially popular.

In foam against pimples and acne and for problem skin there will be various essential oils (tea tree, mint, citrus, coniferous, rosemary, since they have both drying and tonic, healing effects), aloe, salicylic acid, yeast with sulfur, zinc, charcoal or activated charcoal. Very effective means with acids - alpha and beta hydro-acids. Listed as AHA and BHA.

Remember that acid products are used only in winter, as they are incompatible with the active sun. Foam with hyaluronic acid does not apply.

For dry sensitive or thin facial skin suitable chamomile and milk foam, coconut, with rice bran, lactoferrin, bamboo and volcanic ash, which does not cause allergies. Blueberry or grape foam perfectly moisturizes any type of skin, egg foam is also virtually universal.

The composition of the foam should not include aggressive silicones (sulfates) and parabens - natives of the chemical industry, characterized in that they, accumulating in the deep layers of the skin, clog pores, prevent the penetration of oxygen and provoke new inflammations.

The compositions are referred to as SLS and Paraben, and the most dangerous of them are Sodium Laureth Sulfate, Sodium Lauryl Sulfate, Ammonium Laryl Sulfate. Parabens are extremely rare in facial products. Mineral oil, derived from petroleum refining, acts similarly to silicones and is referred to as Mineral Oil. Fragrances (parfum) in foams, as a rule, are at the end of the composition and do not carry much harm. Interesting feature- if there is an asterisk (*) after the word parfum, it means perfume natural production, below is a description of the essential oils included in its composition. On the packaging of natural foam should be written "without sulfates, parabens and silicones."

Benefit and harm

Like any remedy, even such a gentle one has its negative properties. For example:

1. Incorrectly selected foam can exacerbate skin problems. In this case, you need to carefully look at its composition.
2. It can also dry out the skin. The point here is the wrong selection of funds, as well as insufficient moisturizing and toning after washing.
3. Foam for washing, like any non-pharmacy facial product, can cause significant damage to the skin with open wounds or stitches after operations.
4. The same goes for atopic dermatitis.

From useful properties foam can be distinguished main:

1. Regulates the work of the sebaceous glands.
2. Rejuvenates (with properly selected compositions and the mark "for mature skin")
3. Prevents the appearance of pimples and acne, regulates inflammatory processes and brightens post-acne and age spots.
4. Moisturizes.
5. And, of course, thoroughly and gently cleanses.

Popular manufacturers

Firm Nivea there are two very similar means - Aqua Effect Refreshing Mousse for Normal Skin and Cleansing Foam suitable for dry and sensitive skin. The cost of each is about 200-300 rubles.

Foam for washing Avon "Cleansing Nutra Effects" contains soap nut extract, which is its main advantage - it means that the product does not contain parabens, silicones and soap. Suitable for combination and oily as well as sensitive skin. The cost is about 300 rubles for 150 ml.

Foam is not necessarily the brainchild of Japanese, Korean or European manufacturers. And domestic ones have a couple of products that you will like.

For example, the brand "One Hundred Recipes for Beauty" has a foam called "Moisturizing and Freshness". It is enriched with grape extract, aloe and black tea. Designed for any skin type, and costs about 60 rubles. The firm stands out "Bark" with your phyto gel foam.

"Clean line" produces foam with chamomile extract for any skin, and the soap company Spivak- Foams with lavender and tea tree.

See the following video for an overview of facial cleansers.

How to choose

The process of selecting cosmetics is individual and often causes certain difficulties. There are several "whales", focusing on which you can choose almost any face product, including foam.

1. Focus on your skin type. Since foam is a skin product, its type plays almost the most important role. It is clear that a remedy for dry skin will never be suitable for oily skin, and “washes” for mature ones will not have a wow effect for young girls.
2. Don't forget to pay attention to the labels. No matter how manufacturers praise their funds and call them the best, if you discard unnecessary epithets, you can get fairly reliable information about the functions of the product. It is unlikely that a product intended for moisturizing will dry.
3. Read reviews. The opinion of ordinary buyers like you can be much more useful. Read the opinions of other customers, compare with what is written on the label and with what you need. Thanks to this, you can make a full analysis of the tool.
4. Look carefully at the price / quality ratio. Despite the fact that mass market prices are much lower than luxury or pharmacy cosmetics remember that you can’t buy the cheapest tool without looking - for your own safety, find information about it. Also, the price depends on where you buy the product - in a pharmacy or a large chain of branded stores it will always be a little cheaper than in online stores (due to delivery) or in supermarkets. Remember that in the case of Korean foams, this item is not particularly important - since they are considered the safest and it is quite possible to find good remedy literally for 300-400 rubles. But pay attention to the expiration date and the integrity of the package. This applies to any cosmetic product.
5. Alternate one foam with others or change according to the time of year. This is done so that the skin is not used to one remedy and it does not become less effective. For example, if you are the owner of problematic or dry skin, you can wash your face with foam in the morning, wash off your makeup with it, and at night use antiseptic healing "washes" - tar, sulfur or boron soap, for example. For dry skin, mousse is a good alternative. There is also the option of using two different foams - for example, tonic in the morning and soothing at night.

How to DIY

It is not necessary to buy a ready-made facial wash, you can try to make it yourself. For this you will need soap base, distilled water, base oil and a couple of drops of any essential oil (for dry skin it is better to use lavender, rose, tangerine or lemon, for oily or problematic - rosemary, mint, lemon or fir), as well as beeswax.

The ingredients (with the exception of the essential oil) are thoroughly mixed and placed in a water bath. Next, the product must be whipped with a mixer into a light foam, while adding esters three to four drops each. The finished foam is placed in a glass container and sent to a cool dark place.

See the video below for how to make your own face wash.

How to use

There are several ways to use this tool. The first is traditional European. In this case, you need to take a drop of foam, lather it a little in the palms of your hands and apply it on wet face skin. The foam is thick and dense. It is believed that this option is not suitable for oily and combination skin, since the active substances do not penetrate deep enough into the skin.

For the second, safer option, you will need a silicone sponge, foam mesh or cognac sponge. You will need to take the same pea of ​​the product and beat it well into foam on a wet sponge / mesh, apply to pre-moistened skin and, moving along the massage lines from the center of the face to the periphery, cleanse the skin, then rinse off the foam.

According to the rules of this system, you need to spend four minutes removing makeup with oil, two minutes with whipped foam, and again four minutes washing your face with cool water to close pores and tone the dermis.

One of the most popular ways to cleanse the skin of impurities and makeup is to use foamy mousse. A properly selected product penetrates well into the dermis, acting on irritations and acne, and gently cleanses. To help you make the right choice, we have compiled a list of the best budget gels and foams for washing and cleansing your face.

What it is

Foam is a new generation high performance alkaline cleaner. It is available in two packaging options:

• A classic tube with a viscous gel (usually mother-of-pearl). When interacting with water, it actively lathers, creating an airy foam mass. Its density depends on the amount of liquid. The texture of the gel concentrate is thick and viscous, but if you use a damp sponge, it becomes light, airy.
• Bottle with built-in foaming agent. Its principle of action is to turn the gel-like base into foam at the touch of a button. Thus, you wash your face with a mild solution with a low surfactant content.

Such cosmetic preparations perfectly cleanse the dermis and do it much more gently than classic soap, as they protect the hydrolipid layer. The foam will become the best assistant for washing combination and greasy skin: it washes away dirt, but at the same time does not provoke tissue dehydration.

How to choose an effective mousse for daily use

The acquisition of such, at first glance, a simple product should be approached with all seriousness and scrupulousness. And the question concerns not only the cost - worthy samples are found everywhere in any price segment. Basically, the product should be suitable for the composition of your type of epidermis. Let's analyze its main types:

• Problematic with excessive secretion of subcutaneous fat. As a rule, he is not afraid of surfactants. True, the skin can respond to an aggressive method of cleaning with dryness and even peeling. The problem is in closed micropores and local inflammation. In this situation best solution will be a formula with the inclusion of acids. They regenerate tissues at the cellular level and have an antibacterial effect.
• With increased dryness. Milk is considered the best product for cleansing. If you still decide to use mousse, then get one that contains the maximum ingredients for moisturizing.
• The combined type is easily subjected to overdrying. The amount of lipids to retain moisture, which is lost due to the production of sebum, is not enough in such skin. Moisturizing cleansing foam products will do. The main thing - do not neglect regular exfoliation of the dermis to prevent clogging of the pores.

Main advantages

• Ease of use. Some gels do not need to be foamed manually before application: the built-in foamer will do this automatically.
• Delicacy. Chemical compounds contain fewer aggressive surface particles, so they clean more gently and gently. Moisturizer and completely eliminates the feeling of discomfort and tightness after water procedures.
• Profitability. Bottles with mousses are consumed much more slowly compared to traditional gel tubes. Just one press of the dispenser button is enough to get the right amount of substance for a one-time wash.

Kinds

Based on the purpose, foam cleansing preparations can be divided into several categories:

• Depending on the type of skin (for dry, oily, sensitive, normal, problem and combination).
• Oxygen. Such products can replace the scrub with its more gentle version.
• For make-up removal. The line has a soft composition, the products can be used on any part of the face without fear of damage or irritation.
• Cleansing. The most popular type. Contains ingredients with a soothing and antiseptic action spectrum.
• Moisturizing. Ideal for dry and sensitive skin. The formulation includes nourishing and active ingredients that cleanse without washing away the thin hydrolipidic layer.
• Mattifying. The main functions are the deep elimination of impurities from the pores, followed by their closure and getting rid of fatty manifestations in the form of shine.

Compound

The higher in the list of components is one or another element, the greater the concentration it is presented. Usually the first positions are occupied by water (mineral or thermal) and soapy chemical compounds. Further - extracts and extracts from natural products- chamomile, milk, green tea and others.

Depending on the type and purpose, the agent may contain pantohematogen, hyaluronic acid, coenzymes.

The formula for problem areas (against acne and pimples) will necessarily include essential oils of medicinal plants - citrus, coniferous - and zinc. Products containing beta, hydro and alpha acids have proven themselves. But such cosmetics should be used only in winter - these components do not perform well in the sun.

Dry, thin and hypersensitive skin will respond well to washing with milk, coconut, chamomile foam, as well as a solution based on lactoferrin, rice bran, volcanic ash, bamboo and other components that do not provoke allergic reactions. Also worth noting are the versatile ingredients such as egg white, grape and blueberry extract, which perfectly moisturize any kind of dermis.

It is important that the foam does not include aggressive chemical compounds - parabens and sulfates. The most harmful synthetic components for the body are abbreviated as SLS, AlS and Paraben. Mineral oil (a product of petroleum refining) and perfumes are also considered dangerous ingredients. Usually they are last on the list, so they do not pose a significant threat.

A product of natural origin must indicate that it does not contain silicones, parabens and sulfates.

How to use

The cleansing mousse is the perfect companion for morning water treatments, as well as a great helper when removing make-up. It is applied as follows:

• Apply the optimal amount of the product to a wet face and massage it.
• Wash off with warm water.

They also use a silicone sponge or a special mesh, which beat the gel to a foam state, and apply it to the dermis.

Important advice from the editor

If you want to improve the condition of your hair, you should pay special attention to the shampoos you use. A frightening figure - in 97% of shampoos of famous brands there are substances that poison our body. The main components, because of which all the troubles on the labels are indicated as sodium lauryl sulfate, sodium laureth sulfate, coco sulfate.
