Importance of using cleansers

The first step in every skincare routine begins with a good cleanser. Washing with water alone isn’t enough to eradicate the grime, oil and pollutants on your skin. The dirt forms a thick layer, making it tough for other skincare products to penetrate.

Without a cleanser, excessive buildup of grime clogs your pores, causing inflammations such as blackheads, pimples and acne. In the long run, you might be dealing with enlarged pores and acne scars. That’s why cleansing your face in the morning and night is so important to reduce breakouts and maintain healthy skin.

How to properly wash your face

Wondering how to use your facial cleanser? For foaming cleansers, rub the product between your palms until it lathers up, then apply it onto your face and neck. Lightly pat the product into the skin to stimulate blood circulation, then massage it onto your damp skin and neck in circular motions, avoiding the eye contour. Finally, rinse off with lukewarm water.

For cleansing milks, warm the product between your palms to bring it up to your skin temperature, then apply by briskly laying your hands flat on your face and neck. Repeat this step 7 times to allow the cleansing milk to thicken and sponge away impurities. Rinse off with lukewarm water and apply a toner as the next step.
