For optimal skin health, it's generally recommended to use a facial cleanser twice daily, once in the morning and once at night. In the morning, cleansing helps remove any oils or impurities that may have accumulated overnight, preparing your skin for the day's skincare products and makeup application. At night, face cleanser is important for removing makeup, dirt, pollutants, and excess oil from the day, allowing your skin to breathe and regenerate while you sleep. Additionally, it's advisable to cleanse your skin immediately after intense exercise to prevent sweat and bacteria from clogging pores and leading to breakouts. Always make cleansing the first step in your skincare routine. 

When cleansing your face, it's best to use lukewarm water. Hot water can strip your skin of its natural oils, leading to dryness. Cold water, while helpful for reducing swelling, may not effectively loosen dirt and impurities. Lukewarm water is ideal because it helps open up pores gently, allowing your cleanser to work more effectively in removing dirt, oil, and makeup, without causing any undue stress or dehydration to your skin.

Common signs of dry skin include:

A tight or uncomfortable feeling, especially after cleansing
Flaking or visible peeling
Ongoing itchiness
Rough or uneven texture
A dull or ashy appearance
Fine lines that look more noticeable when your skin is dehydrated
