Which is better for cleaning my face, hot or cold water ?

Question

my skin is mixed so it is moist around the nose only and dry in the rest of my face so it gets really hard for me to find a suitable cream for it and it is driving me crazy

Answer 1

Warm water is best and if you use a wash cloth do not scrape or rub just press and blot. Face creams should be stored in the fridge and put on at night. You need a face cream with lots of anti-oxidants and moisturizers. Organic all natural ingredients is always best. Use the face cream at night after washing your face with warm water.

Answer 2

Nice warm water. Too hot will dry your skin out, and too cold won't help your pores to open so your exfoliating facial scrub can clean the gunk out. Then use a light ph-balanced moisturiser.

Answer 3

Both temperatures do something for your face. I suggest using both. :)

Answer 4

Warm, it will open up your pores a little bit so that the face cream will work better. Cold will close your pores and not do anything. Hot will burn and open up your pores too much, for your skin type.

Answer 6

i been told to clean with hot because it help ur skin some way but dont remeber

Answer 7

Comfortably hot.  It will open the pores and help disolve/remove dirt and grime. Think about trying to wash dishes in cold water.  However, rinse with cold water to close the pores and help remove the soap.

With regards to having combindation skin why not just use two different creams for the relevent areas?

Answer 8

Wash your face with warm water (too hot or cold will break capillaries). Then, when you're done washing your face, rinse with cool water to close pores, so they're not all big. Hope I helped. =D

Answer 9

Luke warm water

Answer 10

you need to wash your face with hot water

and then finish it with cold to close your pores

Answer 11

Try cleaning it with hot water because while your cleaning it the hot water will open your pores so whatever cleanser your using will get deeper in those pores and clean the dirt that causes acne and bad skin out.

Tips for cleansers: If you don't have acne then then don't get a scrub kind of cleanser, get a more lotion type so it will soften your skin. My advice would be nuetrogena, I  think it works the best. GOOD LUCK! I hope I helped =)

Answer 12

a mix between hot and cold is best, more warm than cold.

Answer 13

I have learned to wash your face with warm water, and when you are done, splash it with really cold water. The warm water opens your pores to clean them, then the cold water closes them back up.  

Answer 14

warm watter, cold water closes your pores and when u use warm water it opens them so u could clean it better
