Properly cleansing your face is the foundation of healthy, glowing skin — and the *double cleanse* method is the gold standard, especially after a long day with makeup and environmental impurities. Unlike makeup wipes, which can be harsh, abrasive, and leave residue behind, double cleansing thoroughly removes dirt, oil, and makeup without damaging your skin’s natural barrier.
Here’s why double cleansing is more effective and how to do it right:
# # Why Double Cleanse?
- **Makeup wipes** often contain alcohol and harsh chemicals that strip your skin, causing dryness, irritation, and premature aging.
- They tend to smear makeup around rather than fully removing it, clogging pores and leading to breakouts.
- **Double cleansing** uses two gentle steps to deeply cleanse without compromising skin health.
# # Step-by-Step Double Cleanse Routine
**Step 1: Oil-Based Cleanser**
- Start with an oil-based cleanser to dissolve makeup, sunscreen, and excess sebum.
- Apply to dry skin and gently massage in circular motions.
- Rinse off with lukewarm water or wipe away with a damp, soft cloth.
**Step 2: Water-Based Cleanser**
- Follow with a gentle water-based cleanser to remove sweat, dirt, and any remaining impurities.
- Use lukewarm water and massage the cleanser into your skin for about 30 seconds.
- Rinse thoroughly and pat dry with a clean towel.
# # Benefits You’ll Notice
- Cleaner, clearer skin with fewer clogged pores
- Reduced irritation and sensitivity compared to makeup wipes
- Better absorption of serums and moisturizers after cleansing
- A refreshed, balanced complexion that feels soft, not stripped
