Frequently Asked Questions
How do I use ZO Hydrating Cleanser?
Use ZO Hydrating Cleanser twice daily, morning and evening, for routine cleansing. Start by wetting your face with lukewarm water, apply a small, pea-sized amount, gently massage it into the skin to lift impurities, then rinse thoroughly and pat dry. The creamy formula is designed to remove dirt and makeup without stripping natural oils and to restore comfort and hydration, so following with a moisturizer helps seal in moisture. This method preserves the skin barrier and reduces irritation risk, which is important for dry and sensitive skin types. If you wear heavy makeup or sunscreen, follow with a targeted makeup remover or double cleanse first to ensure a full cleanse.
What skin type is ZO Hydrating Cleanser best for?
ZO Hydrating Cleanser is best suited for dry, sensitive, and normal skin because it uses a gentle, creamy formulation that cleanses while restoring comfort and hydration. The product removes impurities without aggressive foaming or harsh surfactants, which helps protect the skin barrier and reduces the chance of rebound dryness. People with very dry or reactive skin will benefit most, especially when they need a cleanser that does not leave the skin tight or uncomfortable. It may be too rich for very oily complexions, where lighter, oil-controlling or mattifying cleansers are typically more appropriate.
Is ZO Hydrating Cleanser appropriate for oily or acne-prone skin?
Not primarily. ZO Hydrating Cleanser is formulated to restore moisture and comfort, so its creamy, hydrating profile can be heavier than what oily or acne-prone skin often needs. Because it is designed to preserve hydration and is not a strong foaming or oil-control cleanser, it may leave a slight residue on very oily skin. People with oiliness or active acne typically benefit from cleansers formulated to reduce excess sebum or that include clinically proven exfoliating ingredients. If you have oily or acne-prone skin but also experience sensitivity, you can try the Hydrating Cleanser sparingly or alternate with a cleanser targeted for oil control to avoid over-drying or increased breakouts.
Can I use ZO Hydrating Cleanser with retinoids or chemical exfoliants?
Yes, you can generally use ZO Hydrating Cleanser alongside retinoids or chemical exfoliants because cleansers rinse off and their mild formulation reduces the chance of compounding irritation. The creamy, soothing texture helps maintain the skin barrier, which can mitigate dryness often caused by actives. To minimize irritation, use the cleanser as your gentle base, then apply retinoids or exfoliants according to their directions, start slowly with actives, and monitor your skin’s response. If you notice increased redness or sensitivity, reduce the frequency of the active ingredient or consult a dermatologist. For highly reactive skin, apply actives on alternate nights.
How often should I use ZO Hydrating Cleanser?
Use ZO Hydrating Cleanser once or twice daily depending on your skin’s needs. For most people with dry, sensitive, or normal skin, cleansing in the morning and evening helps remove impurities while preserving hydration. If your skin is very dry or reactive, cleansing once at night and rinsing with water in the morning can help maintain moisture levels. The cleanser’s gentle, creamy formula is intended to clean without stripping oils, so adjusting frequency based on seasonal changes, active treatments, or how your skin feels is advisable. If you experience tightness or flaking, reduce use and follow with a nourishing moisturizer.
