Do I need to wash my face?

Over summer, I’ve worn zero makeup. At night I moisturise and in the morning use an spf. I rinse my face in the morning & at night, but haven’t been using heavy cleansers or even soap and my skin looks better, is this gross though?

My skin looks miles better when I use a cleanser, even when I haven’t worn any makeup. If I’ve worn SPF, in particular, I need to cleanse really carefully to avoid spots.

But if yours looks and feels better if you just rinse with water, I’d crack on with that if I were you. Generally speaking, I think if your skin looks healthy and feels comfortable and balanced, it probably is.

The cosmetics industry does really well training us to apply products, then strip the skin removing them with more product, so we need to that yet another product.

If you feel and look ok without, then keep it up.

Yep. I don't even wash my face every day if I just have a body shower without washing my hair and if I'm not wearing make-up. I have good skin.

if it isn't broke don't fix it. If your skin is great it's obviously fine
