Aveeno Ultra-calming foaming cleanser
I think my facial toner irritated my skin…?
I bought a bottle of Nivea’s Alchohol-Free Gentle Refreshing Toner recently, and have used it for about 2 days(Day and night). I think it irritated my skin but recently, I changed my skincare routine from
Morning burst oil free cleanser & Nivea soft moisturizing cream
TO
Aveeno Ultra Calming Foaming cleanser & Nivea gentle toner & nivea soft moisturizing cream.
Is my skin irritated because I changed my regime and getting used to it or the product really is affecting my skin?
My cheeks are red and irritated. I have combo skin, oily T-zone and sometimes dry cheeks. My toner and cleanser are both for dry skin.

YOU NEED TO EXPLORE WHICH PRODUCTS CONTAIN TOXIC, SKIN DAMAGING AND SKIN AGING PRODUCTS.
E.G.
PROPYLENE GLYCOL – causes sensitivity reactions. It absorbs moisture from your skin.
EXFOLIANTS disrupt the natural order of things as they remove adult skin cells and leave those below open to premature exposure to the environment They can be easily damaged by UV rays and other factors that age the skin and/ or cause wrinkles.
BENTONITE MINERAL AND KAOLIN CLAY in facial masks dries out skin and forms an impenetrable barrier. This barrier traps toxins, including carbon dioxide, in your skin and keeps oxygen out. If your skin can’t breathe, it can’t stay healthy.
ALCOHOL – a main ingredient in astringents and in facial cleansers, makes face feel cool, refreshed, but is really skin damaging. It strips away the natural oils protecting your face and it takes almost twenty- four hours for it to repair itself.
MINERAL OIL in liquid foundations suffocates and dries out your face. They usually also have PETROLATUM AND ISOPROPYL MYRISTATE in them. Petrolatum can’t be absorbed by the skin and it clogs pores. Isopropyl myristate is a fatty compound that has been shown to clog pores and cause blackheads and pimples also has a more sinister hidden dangers(look it up). Moisturizers for the face and body are applied over a large portion of the skin and remain there for several hours. This exposure is significant. Many powder foundations have talc and zinc stearate, both of which are carcinogenic (cause cancer). Most blushes contain mineral oil, talc, and zinc stearate.
GLYCERIN, used in moisturizers is detrimental as it draws moisture from the skin and holds it on the surface, effectively drying the skin from the inside out.
MEN who do not use these products seem to age more gracefully and stay healthy and young looking longer.
