Do dermatologists approve the method?
Huffpost spoke to several derms who say situational cleansing makes sense to address particular skin concerns in a good way and emphasizes skin health and general hygiene, but others point out that it can also be very expensive and confusing.

Basically, it comes down to this: Do you want to have to work out a special cleansing system? And do you really want to have to remember which face wash to use after a long night out? There are pros and cons.

Should you try it?
There is no evidence of any negative side effects of situational cleansing — so why not? After all, we tend to regard skin care as self care... plus, your skin is the largest organ you have... and we all know that if your skin doesn't feel great, you don't feel great.

If it's something you're interested in trying, there are so many options — you can keep it more affordable with budget-friendly cleansers... or, if you're feeling fancy, you can put Parr's luxurious HoliFrog cleansers to the test! (We're particular fans of the Kissimmee Vitamin F Therapy Balmy Wash, $42, and the Superior Omega Nutritive Gel Wash, $36, for starters.)
