Wash your face. It may seem like a straightforward task but correctly washing your face is crucial to the health of your skin and is often overlooked by many. Trust me; your skin will thank me later.
Select a cleanser based on advice from your esthetician. We suggest starting with a creamy cleanser and an active cleanser to allow for double cleansing.
Throughout the day and the night, your skin will attract airborne bacteria, pollution, oil, debris that can contribute to aging, pigmentation, and breakouts. Double cleansing is a gentle yet thorough way to give you the results you need and want from your skincare.
Make sure to clean your hands before washing your face.
Massage it into your skin for at least 30 seconds to a minute before rinsing. The task of the first cleanse is to remove oil, debris, makeup and anything else that has accumulated onto your skin throughout the day or as you sleep at night. One of my favorites for this step is our Mega Cream Cleanser. This may require two passes with the first cleanse if you have heavy makeup on. Next, remove that with lukewarm water and pat your face dry. Too hot or too cold of water can be jarring to the skin and cause more damage than necessary.
This should be an active cleanser that will clean much deeper into your pores and help remove any impurities. One of my favorites for this is our Glycolic Facial Cleanser. This could be missed if you were only to follow step one. Double cleansing can help to brighten any dullness and lead to a plump and more youthful appearance over time. It can also help your serums and moisturizers be more effective in your skincare routine.
A realistic skincare routine and quality skincare products must go hand in hand to produce the best results and keep your skin in tip-top shape health-wise.
