How to get more from your cleanser

You know those women who walk around all day sporting fresh, radiant-looking skin? The type of skin that glows with good health even when they’re not wearing any make-up? The type of skin that makes you turn green with envy and wonder what the hell their secret is? We hear you, beauties.

But the fact is, their skin care secret isn’t all that complicated; in actual fact, all these women are doing is getting more from their cleansers. Let me explain. You see, where most of us go wrong is that we choose cleansers that only take things away from our skin. They take away oil; they take away daily dirt and make-up; they take away dead skin cells. And because we’re so concerned with what’s being removed from our skin, we fail to notice that said cleansers are also taking away essential moisture. As a result, our skin is left feeling tight and dry, and looking dull. It can sometimes even lead to an over-production of oil, which can cause all sorts of other skin issues.

The women with the radiant, healthy glow to their complexions are the women who know that a good cleanser should effectively remove impurities, while simultaneously adding extra moisture and vitamins back into to the skin. So they get more beauty benefits out of their cleansers because they look for formulations that specifically replenish the skin.

Take the NIVEA Daily Essentials cleansing range, for example. Not only do all the products in the range effectively deep cleanse your skin, but they’re also formulated with special Hydra IQ technology to deliver non-stop moisture. It works by penetrating the deeper layers of your skin to activate your own hydration network, which enables a continual transportation of moisture to the upper layers of your complexion. As a result, skin is clean, hydrated and healthy – three elements that lead to softer, more radiant-looking skin. (See, we told you it wasn’t that complicated!)

If you have dry/sensitive skin, try:NIVEA Daily Essentials Gentle Cleansing Cream Wash, or NIVEA Daily Essentials Soothing Cleansing Mousse.

Have you tried any of the products in the NIVEA Daily Essentials range? Do you think your cleanser is doing as much for your skin as it could?
