If you want to have a healthy skin and a nice complexion then proper cleaning is a must. We would definitely recommend a homemade facial cleanser. It is not at all difficult to make and it is so much better for your skin than the purchased cleansers that have a number of unhealthy chemicals.

Also making homemade facial cleanser is so much fun! Cleansing your face will unclog the pores and remove dead skin pores. If you have a really oily skin wash your face twice a day, and if you have dry or sensitive skin once a day is enough – preferably before bedtime. If you wear make up necessarily wash it off before going to sleep, and wash your face after working out. After you’ve cleaned your face apply natural toner and moisturizer that you can also make by yourself.

You can try one of these 5 recipes for homemade facial cleanser, suitable for every skin type – dry, oily, combination, sensitive or normal skin type.
