hi prishita

u have a very different name........nice name......and coming to the point.----

definately cleanser and face wash are different.......

cleanser is something which we use to remove dirt from our face......

where as face wash is something replacement to soap.....instead of using soap to our face we use face wash for soap.......

you can use both cleanser and facewash.

i use cleanser weekly once as i stay at home and dont get exposed to dirt much.....so its upto you how to use them...if you are working and go out daily u can use it daily.. or u can use weekly twice. usually by using cleanser our pores on bdy opens,so to close them they use toner ........u can use toner after cleansing.......
i think there is no need of using cleanser daily twice......using once is more than enough if u go out regularly... hope its clear......if u still have any doubts post here..ur most welcome......

thanks a lot surya for the info

actually i never used beauty products before, recently i bought cleanser,toner day time and night moisturiser, the sales girl explained me to use all the 3 twice, but still i had confusion on what i posted in this forum.

thanks u explained clearly, and one more concern is can i use cleanser and face wash in combination like daily cleanser once and face wash twice like that.
