I’ve noticed that with some face wash I get more acne after use and I was just wondering if it just pulls all of the dirt up that wasn’t noticable before or if there was some other cause. Sorry if the tag doesn’t fit btw. I wasn’t sure which one fit this better.

From what i understand and from personal experience, your skin requires a degree of “dirt”, that being healthy bacteria and oils that your skin produces naturally. We clean our faces to manage that oil and dirt. But unfortunately, when you do wash your face, it strips your skin of those oils and interfering with that’ biome’ can cause irritation and acne. I personally don’t use face wash, I just use water and my hands because every wash I’ve tried, even gentle ones, are too aggressive for me. Au natural is the way my skin prefers.
