Cleansers & Makeup Removers

A facial cleanser is a skincare product specifically designed to cleanse the skin on our faces: it removes impurities, dead cells and dirt as well as contaminating particles that accumulate on the cutis over the course of the day.

During the day, the skin produces oil and sweat and is exposed to the particles of pollution that are in the air.

This dirt can settle into the pores and affect both the skin’s appearance and its functions. To remove it and prevent pores from becoming blocked, a good cleanse is essential.

This way, the skin can “breathe” better and is able to absorb the skincare products that are applied afterwards more effectively.

A cleanser gives the face a general clean while a makeup remover is specially formulated to remove makeup. Even so, some effective cleansers can also remove makeup, even waterproof cosmetics.

If you are wearing makeup, this is the perfect combination to ensure a thoroughly cleansed face.

One option is to use a makeup remover like NB Ceutical Eye and Lip Makeup Remover on these specific zones and then use your regular facial cleanser on the rest of your face.

Ideally, you should wash your face twice a day: morning and night.

In the morning to remove any impurities that are generated while you sleep and to start your day with impeccable skin that is receptive to your beauty ritual.

And at night to remove makeup and the day’s dirt, leaving the cutis prepared for your night-time skincare products and a restorative sleep.

Choose your favorite facial cleanser, spread the product across you face, neck and décolleté and massage in for one minute. If it’s a product that needs rinsing off, we recommend you use warm water.

Complete the cleansing ritual by applying a toner or facial essence to soothe the cutis and further enhance the absorption of your subsequent skincare products.

Double cleansing means using two products, one oil based and the other water based, to ensure a deep cleanse.

The first, like Diamond Cocoon Daily Cleanse, serves to thoroughly remove makeup, sunscreen and the most resistant particles. The second, like the revitalizing C+C Vitamin Micellar Cleansing Water, helps to completely cleanse your skin, leaving it fresh and prepared for the next steps in your skincare routine.

Male skin tends to be more oily and have more visible pores. So for men, refreshing and purifying cleansers like Oxygen Mousse are perfect as they have a pleasing foam texture that helps keep blemishes at bay.

The ideal products for this skin type are cleansers that contain moisturizing ingredients, which help seal moisture in. Thanks to its microemulsion of oil and glycerin, Diamond Luminous Rich Luxury Cleanse is highly suitable for dry skin as it offers a lovely, effective cleanse and leaves your face feeling soft and supple.

Sensitive skin is more likely to suffer from cutaneous discomfort and redness, so it’s best to use extremely gentle cleansers that don’t upset its balance.

From our soothing line, NB Ceutical Tolerance Cleanser effectively and delicately cleanses the cutis while NB Ceutical Eye and Lip Makeup Remover is an excellent biphasic product that is suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin.

Wash your face gently for 1 minute and rinse off the product with warm water. Otherwise, you could strip away the skin's natural oils and irritate it.

Oily skin is characterized by an excess of sebum, shine, and pores. To control blemishes, the best options are cleansers with alpha-hydroxy acids or salicylic acid, like Stabilizing Facial Cleansing Gel with A.H.A. + P.H.A..

If you prefer a two-in-one, Stabilizing Cleansing Mask works as both a cleanser and as a mask. It is also formulated with salicylic acid, removes all types of impurities and makeup, and gives a deep cleanse.

A facial cleanser like Diamond Cocoon Daily Cleanse is ideal for combination skin, as it offers a cleanse as deep as it is gentle. With a creamy texture, it provides intense hydration while also regulating excess sebum in the most problematic areas like the T zone. Focus on those areas to properly remove impurities, and then rinse thoroughly with warm water.
