What is the difference between cleansing foam and cleansing gel
Posted by ANDREI FIERARU
In a way, think of gel cleansers as cleansing your skin and pores without stripping too much of your skin cells or helpful oils. These are a little..less effective at cleaning the deeper layers of the pores, but they can still do a great job without making your skin feel as raw or open as a foam cleanser does.
Shampoo and cleansing gel are both products used to clean the skin, but they have some important differences:
1. Texture : The cleansing foam is an airier texture with a lighter consistency like the acne cleansing foam that contains BHA to keep the skin clean, while the cleansing gel has a denser and more viscous texture for the gel cleaning product from COSRX enriched with snail mucin, which is considered a beneficial ingredient for the skin and at the same time has the role of moisturizing and protecting the skin
2. How to use: The cleansing foam is applied to the skin and foams, like the delicate cleansing foam from the COSRX range, an ideal product for all skin types, suitable even for daily use while the cleansing gel is applied on skin and is gently rubbed to clean impurities, refreshes tired skin like Benton's foam-gel .
3. Ingredients : Cleansing foam can contain several moisturizing and emollient ingredients, which help to hydrate and moisturize the skin, such as the product with a low pH level that effectively removes impurities from the skin, keeping the skin in a healthy state while the cleansing gel can contain several ingredients that help deep clean the skin and eliminate impurities and excess sebum, just like the gel from the Skin1004 range, with effective ingredients that remove makeup and impurities from the skin.
4. Effect: Cleansing foam can have a more moisturizing effect on the skin, like the cleansing foam from Skin1004 with an effect that removes makeup and impurities without drying the skin, while the cleansing gel can have a cleaner effect on the skin , giving you a brighter complexion, this gel formulated with salicylic acid to reduce the appearance of skin problems
5. Skin type: The cleansing foam may be more suitable for drier or sensitive skin types that offer you excellent calming effects for sensitive skin and together with the centella asiatica ingredient it will give your skin a long-lasting calming effect, all these aspects make this foam , the necessary product for your skin, while.. the cleansing gel may be more suitable for oilier or acne-prone skin types such as the gel from COSRX with an optimal pH 5.0-6.0 for the skin, which prevents the appearance pimples and at the same time will deeply clean your pores and dead cells.
It is important to choose a product that is suitable for your skin type and needs. It is recommended to consult a skin specialist or read the ingredient list and read user reviews to help you make the right choice.
WHICH SHOULD I USE?
In general, the best way to determine which cleanser is right for you is to take into account your skin type and any skin conditions you have. Those with oily skin may benefit from different cleansers than those with dry or combination skin. Also, be sure to pair your cleanser with other top skincare products for healthy, glowing skin.
Therefore, it is important to be careful or careful.. what you use, what matters is the type of skin you apply these products to, and especially the way you apply them.. meaning not to use another type of product for a different skin.
