It is a two-stage way of cleaning the skin with oil-based and water-based cleansers. In the first stage , the oil-based products in the skin become soluble with the cleanser in oil form. In the second stage , the skin is cleaned with a water-based cleanser.
Is double cleaning necessary for everyone?
If you do not use mascara, waterproof makeup, foundation or tinted sunscreen, washing with a product suitable for your skin type alone is sufficient. Double cleansing is not necessary.
If you use mascara, waterproof make-up or sunscreen you can use one of these cleansers;
- Micellar water
- Cleansing balm
- Cleansing oil
For light make-up:
Micellar Water
You can wet cotton pads with micellar water and leave them on your eyelids for 3-4 seconds, then gently clean them. Do not rub!
A gentle water-based washing product should be usedafterwards.
For heavy – dense make-up:
Make-up Cleansing Balm
Gently massage with fingertips for 20-30 seconds and then rinse.
A gentle water-based washing product should be usedafterwards.
For very dry and sensitive skin:
Temizleme Yağı (Cleansing Oil)
It can also be sufficient alone for very dry and sensitive skin by rinsing directly after application.
Who should do double-stage cleaning?
If the skin is oily, if tinted sunscreen is used or if make-up is applied, a two-stage cleansing is necessary.
What is the benefit of double-stage cleansing for the skin?
- It cleanses the skin deeply.
- It cleans the sunscreen better and leaves no residue.
- It also easily removes water-resistant sunscreen and water-resistant make-up.
- It makes the skin healthier and more vibrant.
- As the skin is well cleaned , it helps prevent acne and blackhead formation.
- More efficiency is obtained from the skin care products applied afterwards.
