White sugar is less irritating and safer than other physical exfoliants. Some chemical exfoliating products may contain strong acidic and alkaline ingredients, which may cause irritation, redness and other uncomfortable reactions during use. White sugar, on the other hand, being a natural substance, is a relatively safe choice for most people.
Washing your face with white sugar can also provide a deep clean. Because white sugar is fine-grained and highly soluble, it can be used to gently massage the skin, helping to remove dirt and oil from the pores and reduce the production of blackheads and pimples. The natural mannitol component in white sugar also adsorbs excess oil from the skin surface, leaving the skin fresh and non-greasy.
It is important to note that there are differences in the appropriate face washing methods for different skin types. For dry and sensitive skin, sugar cleansing may be too irritating, leading to dry or red skin. Therefore, when choosing a face washing method, you should make a reasonable choice based on your own skin condition and needs, and conduct a localized test before using it to avoid causing discomfort.
Sugar cleansing can be used as a gentle and natural exfoliation method that can bring softness and moisturizing effect to the skin. However, everyone's skin is different, so please assess your skin condition carefully before use and follow professional advice on choosing the right face wash for you.
