What is double cleansing?
Double Cleansing, we hear about it all the time!
But what is double cleansing and why is it all the rage among skincare addicts?
Firstly, it is important to understand that double cleansing is not suitable for all skin types. Double cleansing allows to deeply cleanse combination skin or skin with a lot of makeup. It allows us to remove impurities without drying out the skin, which is often the case when using a cleanser that is too powerful. As you may understand, we do not recommend double cleansing for sensitive, dry and reactive skin!
This routine consists of using 2 different facial cleansers one after the other.
The first cleanser should be an oil-based cleanser, such as an oil or a balm. This first step will dissolve makeup and excess oil, gently removing greasy substances while moisturizing the skin with the active ingredients of the oil.
The second step will be to clean and purify the pores deeply with a water-based cleanser. A water-based cleanser removes aqueous molecules such as sweat and pollution without attacking the skin barrier.
Finally, don't forget to apply a moisturizing lotion to your skin to restore suppleness and radiance.
