The Double Cleansing Method
The double cleansing method is the process of washing your face twice to ensure a thorough cleanse. What if I told you that the most important step of your nighttime skincare routine is washing your face? It’s true! If you’re not washing your face properly at night, the rest of your skincare routine is… pointless!
For your first cleanse use a gentle oil or cream cleanser to remove all makeup, sunscreen, and dirt/debris that builds up throughout the day. Remember, you haven’t actually cleaned your skin in the step, you have only removed what was on the surface. I recommend Glymed+’s Mega Cream Cleanser or Face Reality’s Barrier Balance Creamy Cleanser for your first cleanse.
For the second cleanse, go in with a targeted cleanser specific to your skin type and concerns. This cleanse actually cleans your pores and prepares your skin for the rest of your skincare routine. Since your second cleanser is a targeted cleanser, I recommend doing a skin evaluation to see what cleanser is best for you!
Using The Double Cleansing Method is the first step towards healthy skin so let’s ditch your Neutrogena makeup wipes and start double cleansing at night!
