Can using sensitive, soap free facial cleaner on normal skin cause breakouts?

I%26#039;ve swiched my facial products because my skin was starting to feel tight and tired. I switched to sensitive skin care line %26#039;Simple%26#039; which is soap free. My face wash contains Vitamin B-5. My toner contains Chamomile and Witch Hazel, and my Moisturiser contains Ginkgo Biloba, Vitamin A, E, B-5 and F with Mushroom extract. I%26#039;ve only used it one night. My skin feels less tight but seems a bit oiler than normal. Am I likely to break out in spots because of this?

Can using sensitive, soap free facial cleaner on normal skin cause breakouts?
The great advantage of oily skin is that it ages at a slower rate than other skin types.


Oily skin needs special cleansing with plenty of hot water and soap to prevent the pores from being clogged. Avoid harsh products that strip your skin of oil and encourage flakiness. They can cause a reaction known as reactive seborrhoea, where the oil glands work overtime to compensate for the loss of natural oils.





Avoid skincare products that leave your skin feeling taut and dehydrated. They cause the upper layers of the skin to shrink. This restricts oil flow through the pores leading to blockages and breakouts.





To cleanse oily skin, use oil-based products as they dissolve sebum effectively. Opt for oil-free moisturizers to maintain a shine-free complexion.





Keep your skin very clean. Limit washing your face to two or three times a day. Too much washing will stimulate your skin to produce more oil.





Choose your cleanser with care. Avoid heavy cleansing creams. Avoid the use of harsh soaps or cleansers. Use a pure soap with no artificial additives. Try an antibacterial cleansing lotion or a lightly medicated soap, and use it in combination with a water rich in minerals, not tap water. Do not use cleansers or lotions that contain alcohol. After cleansing, apply a natural oil-free moisturizer to keep the skin supple.





Use hot water when washing your face. Hot water dissolves skin oil better than lukewarm or cold water.





If your skin is extremely oily, three or four daily cleansings may be in order and little or no moisturizing necessary before you are 30 years old. After that point, the skin around your eyes and mouth and on your throat may benefit from a nightly moisturizing, plus a mere touch of moisturizer in the morning.





When cleansing, massage your face well with your fingertips, using an upward and outward motion. Be careful not to rub soap into the skin; it can clog pores.





If your oily skin is scaly, you can often correct the problem by using a deep-cleaning exfoliant on alternate nights, and following the treatment with a light coating of moisturizer.





Try using a clay or mud mask. If you have sensitive skin, use white or rose-colored clays.





Use a light antiseptic night cream from time to time if you wish, and apply a clarifying mask one or two times a week.





Choose cosmetic and facial care products specifically designed for oily skin.





Before applying makeup, use an antiseptic day cream with active ingredients that diminish sebaceous secretions. Look for benzyl peroxide in the list of active ingredients.

Reply:just use neutrogena....they have stuff for all skin type products
Reply:to tell you the truth, even if your face products are soap free %26amp; %26quot;natural%26quot; %26amp; even in some cases, %26quot;organic,%26quot; if they contain any chemicals like Parabens, fragrance, Sodium Lauryl Sulfate, Propylene Glycol, etc, they can make you break out. you need to be using ALL natural products or products that are at minimum 95% natural. my prefered line of beauty products (because I have super sensitive %26amp; acne prone skin) is Burt%26#039;s Bees. I love that they%26#039;re mostly 100% natural AND they%26#039;re so inexpensive!
Reply:Many times when changing face cleaners/make up, etc. you will experience a break out. The reason is the new cleaner is trying to purify the skin and it takes time. I would give it at least a week to 10 days to see if you notice a difference.


Good Luck.
Reply:Your skin feels a bit more oily, hence it feels less tight. You are not likely to break out from this. (I wonder what the Mushroom extract is supposed to help) So much acne is due to stress %26amp; hormones, and of course, that time of the month! Stick with your regimen, don%26#039;t worry about the feeling of more oily--give your skin a week to adjust to the new products, then re-evaluate.
Reply:Skin is so unpredictable, my suggestion would be to not use the moisturizure so often. And by the way, my face is always on the shiny side and i never get pimples. As long as you are taking good care fo your skin, then there should be no problem. Hope this helped =]
Reply:Actually, the %26#039;sensitive skin%26#039; products are better because have no fragrance, which can clog your pores. As for your skin feeling oilier, change your routine: use only your face wash and toner in the morning, but face wash, toner and moisturizer at night, because the skin repairs 90% of itself at night. You might want to splurge on a good moisturizer if the one you have doesn%26#039;t work for you. Another good tip is switching your pillowcase every night, as bacteria can remain in it.
