Deciding when to do something can be one of the most difficult decisions you make, and it doesn't get any easier when making decisions about your ALL-NATURAL SKINCARE ROUTINE. In fact, deciding how often you should WASH YOUR FACE can be the most difficult decision you face (pun intended :) each and every day.
This is especially the case in summer, when your skin can suffer as a result of humid weather and rising temperatures, potentially resulting in irritation, burning, and breakouts that can impact you well into fall. (1)
But there IS a way you can PROTECT your face, and that’s by WASHING it. Knowing how often you should wash your face each day is crucial – also that you use the right ALL-NATURAL FACE WASH, one that’s gentle enough on skin to be used many times per day.
In this blog we talk about how often you should wash your face, and how to enjoy RADIANT and HEALTHY skin today!
There are many trends in regard to skincare and hair care that come and go, especially involving the frequency in which you wash. But there is something you should know right off the bat – you should probably be washing your face more than once per day. In fact, it’s recommended you wash your face at least in the morning and at night.
It's also recommended people with skin especially prone to acne and breakouts wash more frequently, as long as the ingredients in their facial wash allow it - and don't cause dryness as a result of artificial chemicals and ingredients. (2) (3)
You need to really think about this, as washing enough may not always be enough. This is because not washing adequately enough can lead to acne and problems with your pores. Not washing enough can also adversely affect every other ALL-NATURAL PRODUCT you have from being effective. (4) (5)
Just as important as knowing how often to wash your face is knowing what to wash with. The American Academy of Dermatology Association recommends that your ALL-NATURAL FACE WASH be gentle and contain no alcohol, which can irritate your skin.

It's also recommended that you wash your face after intense sweating. Though common after exercising and performing strenuous activity, you may also experience prolonged sweating from wearing a helmet or hat. (7)
Without proper face washing, the summer can pile on the stressors, causing debris and environmental irritants to load onto your skin and cause you skin problems that can linger - eventually causing breakouts and irritation. (8) (9)
So now we know your face requires frequent washing, but did you know that an afternoon face wash is also recommended in the summer, especially for people with skin prone to oil? This is because your face can suffer due to environmental irritants and pollutants, leading to sensitive and vulnerable skin.
The humid weather of summer can also cause problems to your skin because of what it does to your natural oil-producing glands. With more humidity, your glands work even more intensely, leading to skin that can feel sticky and in desperate need of maintenance and cleaning. (10)

For a good example of how often you should wash your face, just look at your hands. Not cleaning your hands enough can be - first off - gross, while over-cleaning them can leave you with irritated and inflamed skin. (11)
To best understand how often to wash your face, you need to know what your facial wash removes. Basically, your skin accumulates a good amount of bacteria at night that requires removal during the morning, while also accumulating germs during the day from your daily activities.
Washing your face too much with the wrong products can be incredibly damaging to your skin, leaving you with irritation and potentially dry skin that’s super confused during the sweaty summer season. (13)
To decide what you want to do to your skin in the summer, you need to know what your goal is. The basic goal when you get to the sink is to make sure your skin is WASHED, while also being HYDRATED and having been applied the necessary TONER it needs. (14)
