I don’t recommend using shampoo to clean your face, I mean, unless you HAVE to. Like, if there’s a zombie apocalypse and their drink of choice is facial cleanser… I guess then you’d have to use shampoo.
I never HAD to use shampoo. I just didn’t know I was supposed to be using a separate cleanser for my face. I think I figured why waste the money? The shampoo does a pretty darn good job washing me hair (or so I thought), it’ll be fine to wash my face when it runs down from my head in the shower. Right?
It’s important to recognize that properly cleansing the skin prepares your skin to absorb products you may put on after, like a serum or moisturizer. Clearing out your pores allows the moisturizer to penetrate into your skin for maximum effectiveness. What’s the point of applying moisturizers and treatments if your skin isn’t able to absorb them fully? (1) We’ll talk about moisturizers in another post. 😉

There’s also cleanser for those with ACNE PRONE SKIN called Clear Advantage Clarifying Wash Acne Medication. Great for pre-teens and teens. Although, I have to tell you, before you go buying a bunch of acne products, look at your diet (or your teens diet). If they’re eating a lot of junk or “food-like” products, then try switching their diet some more natural foods – “God foods”. 80% of what is happening on our skin is a result of what we’re eating, usually. So that’s the best place to start!
So, don’t be like the old Heather by using shampoo to wash your face. Use cleanser. Enjoy. ☺
