cleansers

bridget black^™ cleaners are formulated to be gentle yet thorough.  Great skin begins with cleansing so it's something we all need to do. But beware. Many cleansers contain alcohol - which strip your skin of important oils.  We'll try not to scare you too much, but if you see words like ethanol or isopropyl alcohol on the label - we'd rather you didn't put it on your skin.

Bridget's Beauty Tip on Cleansing

Skin should be cleansed twice per day.  No more than a ten cent piece should be used and should be washed under tepid water.  After you've cleansed, you skin should feel soft.  Tightness, redness, flaky skin or shiny skin means that your cleanser does not suit your skin type.

Squeaky, shiny and tight skin does not equal clean.  It means that your skin has been stripped of all its natural oils and has lost its protective barrier.  If this happens over a long period, the skins collagen will begin to break down and aging will occur prematurely (now that's enough to scare anyone!).  Hot water or very cold water will also cause problems (so limit shower time), as will excessive exfoliation.
