A member asked:

I tried another cleanser brand for 3 days and i don't like it and want to go back to my daily original brand. will that spoil my face? must i wait?

Sounds ok: In general, one should not have any problem switching back and forth among facial cleansers, as long as one is not over-cleaning her face... Which can lead to irritation and redness.
