Take a look at the label on your face wash. Does it have a long list of ingredients that you can barely pronounce (let alone identify what they are)? Does it include things like parabens, phthalates, and formaldehyde?
如今，你会在各种皮肤和头发护理产品中发现这些成分，因为它们是一种廉价的方法，可以改变产品的质地，保存它们，并使它们在很长一段时间内保持货架稳定——以及添加一种我们许多人已经认识到的“正常”的气味和香水元素。但仅仅因为它被认为是正常的，并不意味着它是正确的。
You might be shocked to learn how little impact the FDA has in terms of the regulation for the ingredients in skin, hair, and other body products. In fact, companies are legally allowed to add the ingredient “fragrance” without having to disclose how it’s made.
So if you’re tired of dealing with skin problems that you know are associated with the goop you’re putting on your face, it is time to take charge of your skincare routine. And while we do recommend checking out some of the best natural face washesyou can find onlineand at drugstores, we’ve put together a list of some of the best homemade face wash recipes to finally ditch the nasty chemicals for good.

这款来自Live Simply的自制洗面奶只有三种成分，是一种廉价而简单的方法，可以远离对羟基苯甲酸酯、香水和其他讨厌的东西。这个食谱非常适合那些想要尝试自制洗面奶的人，而不用承诺购买他们可能不会使用的材料。

Face Wash With Dr. Bronner’s Castile Soap
Though this may not be the best option for dry skin, if you have normal or oily skin, castile soap works well as an easy face wash. I’ve used castile soap as a facial cleanser before and find that it works well for my skin, though I always make sure to apply moisturizer afterward.
Another option would be to rinse your face with Dr. Bronner’s to clear your pores of dirt and debris, and then follow up with an oil cleanser to leave it moisturized and supple.
