Cleaning and make-up removal
An effective routine begins with proper cleansing. Every day, your skin accumulates makeup, SPF, sebum, and pollution particles. If these are not completely removed, pores can become clogged, imperfections may appear, and subsequently applied products will not perform optimally.
In the cleansing and makeup removal category on SKINSEEN.ro, you'll find cleansing gels, cleansing oils, foams, micellar waters, and balms suitable for combination, dry, sensitive, or acne-prone skin. Most are Korean products, known for their gentle and carefully balanced formulas.
Which cleansing product is right for you?
Choose based on your skin type, preferred texture, and the level of makeup or SPF you use daily.
Face Cleansing Gel
A face cleansing gel effectively removes impurities and excess sebum without leaving the skin dry.
On SKINSEEN.ro, you'll find:
- cleansing gel for combination skin, with light textures that balance the T-zone;
- cleansing gel for acne-prone skin with salicylic acid (BHA), which helps to clean pores;
- cleansing gel for dry skin, with hydrating ingredients such as collagen or peptides;
- formulas with gentle exfoliation, with AHA, to smooth skin texture.
If you've used popular pharmacy products, you'll appreciate Korean alternatives with finer textures and ingredients like PDRN (a DNA-derived ingredient with repairing effects), centella asiatica, or rice extract.
Cleansing Oil or Balm
If you wear makeup or apply SPF daily, start your evening routine with a cleansing oil or balm. These dissolve foundation, mascara, and sunscreen without irritating the skin.
This step is especially important in warm weather, when you frequently use SPF products or self-tanners. A two-step cleanse (oil + gel) reduces the risk of clogged pores and blackheads.
Gentle Cleansing Foam
Cleansing foam offers a feeling of freshness and is suitable for daily use. Formulas with peptides or collagen support skin elasticity and help maintain the skin barrier.
It's a good option for sensitive skin or for mornings when you want a quick and comfortable cleanse.
Micellar Water or Cleansing Milk
Micellar water is practical for light makeup removal or for your morning routine. Micelles attract impurities and excess sebum without aggressive rubbing.
If you prefer creamier textures, choose a delicate cleansing milk, suitable for dry or sensitive skin.
Skin Cleansing Based on Skin Type
Combination or Oily Skin
Look for balancing, not aggressive, formulas. A gel with salicylic acid or enzymes:
- helps to clean pores;
- controls excess sebum;
- supports acne prevention.
For a complete routine, explore the selection of combination skin care products.
Dry or Sensitive Skin
Choose fragrance-free products with soothing ingredients. After cleansing, apply a toner from the toners and mists category to rebalance the skin.
Follow with a suitable moisturizer, such as Black Rice 10 Hyaluronic Cream Unscented or Cica Care Cream, which support hydration and reduce discomfort for sensitive skin.
Acne-prone Skin
Opt for a cleansing gel with salicylic acid (BHA) or AHAs in gentle concentrations. Cleanse your skin twice a day and avoid formulas that over-dry. Consistency and choosing the right formula make a long-term difference.

What Does a Proper Cleansing Routine Look Like?

- Application of serum, cream, and SPF (morning).
Correct cleansing helps improve skin texture and allows active ingredients in your routine – such as peptides or PDRN – to act effectively.
