What is a healthy natural facial cleanser?
A healthy natural facial cleanser effectively cleanses the skin without disrupting the skin barrier or stripping the skin of its natural oils. A good facial cleanser removes make-up, SPF, excess sebum and dirt whilst leaving the skin’s natural oils as intact as possible. Ingredients such as harsh degreasing sulphates (such as SLS and SLES), silicones, mineral oils, microplastics, synthetic fragrances and other undesirable substances that are often found in conventional and even so-called ‘natural’ facial cleansers do not, in our opinion, belong in a healthy natural skincare routine.
At GreenBeautyShop, we believe it is important that a natural facial cleanser does not leave the skin feeling tight, dry or sensitive after cleansing. After cleansing, the skin should feel clean, fresh, comfortable and healthy, without any burning, tightness or dryness.
Healthy skin naturally possesses protective oils and a strong skin barrier. Overly aggressive facial cleansers can disrupt this natural balance, causing the skin to become drier, more sensitive, more reactive or, conversely, oilier. That is why we consciously choose mild, natural and organic facial cleansers with skin-friendly ingredients such as plant-based oils, floral waters, antioxidants, herbal extracts, natural sugars and other bioactive substances that cleanse the skin without disrupting its natural balance.
Which ingredients would you prefer to avoid in a facial cleanser?
Many conventional facial cleansers, and even those marketed as ‘natural’, often contain ingredients that can unnecessarily dry out, irritate or unbalance the skin.
These include sulphates, harsh foaming agents, synthetic fragrances, microplastics, PEGs, drying alcohol and other harsh additives.
Below, we explain the most common undesirable ingredients in more detail.
Sulphates (such as SLS and SLES)
Used for their cleansing and foaming properties, but can severely strip the skin of its natural oils and disrupt the skin’s natural barrier. This can lead to dryness, tightness, redness and skin irritation.
Silicones
Are used to make the skin feel smooth and soft, but can form a sealing layer on the skin, which means the natural skin balance is less well supported.
Mineral oils
Can form a sealing layer on the skin and, in our view, contribute less actively to a healthy and balanced skincare routine than high-quality plant-based oils.
Microplastics
Synthetic particles that provide texture and structure, but which we avoid due to their harmful impact on the environment and the skin.
PEGs (emulsifiers)
Used to blend ingredients and improve texture. We avoid PEGs due to their synthetic origin, as they can make the skin more sensitive or permeable to other substances, and because of potential residual traces of ethylene oxide and 1,4-dioxane from the manufacturing process.
Synthetic fragrances and colourants
Are added for scent and appearance, but can cause irritation or reactions on sensitive skin and do not actively contribute to the product’s efficacy.
Parabens and other preservatives
Are used to extend the shelf life of products, but can be irritating to sensitive skin.
Alcohol (such as alcohol denat.)
Can make products light and quick-drying, but may dry out or disrupt the skin and its barrier with frequent use.
Within our selection, the focus is on natural and organic facial cleansers free from these ingredients, with an emphasis on gentle yet effective cleansing and a comfortable skin feel.
What is the best natural facial cleanser?
The best natural facial cleanser depends on your skin type, skin condition and personal preference. Which facial cleanser suits you best depends, among other things, on the sensitivity of your skin, the desired texture and how thoroughly you wish to cleanse your skin.
That’s why our collection features natural and organic facial cleansers for different skin types and skin needs.
