Foam cleansers, like the CeraVe Balancing Air Foam Facial Cleanser, create an instant lightweight foam that spreads easily across the skin for frictionless cleansing—no tugging. Unlike some gel or cream formulas, this cleanser offers a sensorial feel that is as light as air, while effectively removing dirt, makeup, suncream, and impurities. It is powered by new Glycolysine™ technology to control excess oil and lock in moisture for balanced skin.
What makes a foam cleanser different from a regular gel or cream cleanser?
-
Yes. This face cleanser is fragrance-free, paraben-free, non-comedogenic, and allergy-tested, making it suitable for sensitive skin. It is designed for normal to combination skin, helping to control oil while providing up to 24H hydration. Formulated with three essential ceramides and soothing allantoin, it helps reinforce the skin barrier function, keeping skin feeling calm, balanced, and hydrated.
Is this foam cleanser suitable for sensitive or combination skin?
-
Not at all. While it provides up to 8H oil control, this foaming facial cleanser is clinically proven to deliver up to 24H hydration. Formulated with ceramides, amino acids, and allantoin, it cleanses gently without stripping, supporting a healthier-looking skin barrier so skin feels clean and comfortable—never tight or dry.
Will this cleanser dry out my skin or strip away moisture?
-
A cleanser is a skincare product designed to gently lift oil, dirt, sweat, dead skin cells, and makeup from the skin's surface. These impurities are then carried away with rinsing. A good cleanser will help prevent the accumulation of residue while leaving the skin's barrier intact.
What does a cleanser do?
-
This can vary from cleanser to cleanser. Always read the product's packaging carefully and apply per the instructions. When washing your face, remember to apply your cleanser in a circular motion using your fingertips (without pulling or tugging too harshly on your face). Once finished, rinse the cleanser thoroughly with lukewarm water and lightly pat your skin dry using a clean, soft towel.
How long should I have a Cleanser on my face?
-
Ideally, you should wash your face twice daily, once in the morning and again in the evening. You might also consider cleansing after any activity where your face becomes visibly covered with sweat. However, it's important to remember that every individual's skin is unique and the right cleansing frequency may vary based on your skin's needs. When in doubt, speak to your dermatologist about how often to cleanse.
