Clarins Singapore: Cleansers & Toners

The importance of face cleansers and toners

Cleansing and toning are important aspects of every skincare routine. If you want a smooth, radiant and poreless complexion, you need a suitable cleanser and toner for your skin type that won’t trigger breakouts, clogged pores and other blemishes. A cleanser helps remove dirt, sebum and impurities from your skin effectively.

Wondering why you should use a toner? A toner functions as the second step of cleansing. It helps to remove excess dirt while minimising the pores, and also maintains the pH levels of the skin. It wipes away all the potential pore-cloggers that could lead to breakouts and other skin blemishes.

When to wash the face and apply a toner?

It’s recommended to wash your face no more than twice a day. Too much cleansing can strip your skin of its natural oils and leave it dehydrated. Start by cleansing your face in the morning, and then in the evening before you wind down for bed. Use a gentle face cleanser without harsh chemicals to avoid allergies or breakouts. You can also try an exfoliating cleanser once or twice a week to scrub away dead skin cells. Use a toner right after cleansing to wipe away all the leftover gunk.

Suitable cleansers and toners for each skin type

You should always pick a cleanser and toner that suits your skin. The Clarins Extra-Comfort Cleansing Cream is a gentle face cleanser for all skin types. Made with Shea and Mango extracts, this rich cream cleanser also removes make-up and dirt while protecting your complexion from the harmful effects of pollution. If you want a hydrating toner, you’ll love the Toning Lotion with Camomile. This alcohol-free toner functions to refresh, soften and soothe skin irritations, thanks to Vitamins A, B and E.
