Proper Cleansing Step-by-step guide

Step One: Remove make-up before washing your face

Gently use make-up remover on cotton balls to allow water to reach the entire skin surface. Any oil based make-up will repel water and will reduce the efficiency of any skin cleanser.

Step two: Only wash your face with room-temperature water

Avoid using extremely cold or extremely hot water when washing your face. Extreme temperature break capillaries, lead to skin dehydration and aggravate pimples. The cleansers will also be more effective when used with water of the right temperature.

Step three: Use a gentle anti-acne cleanser (100% natural is preferable) fit for your skin type

For a sensitive skin you would use a mild cleanser. For a dry skin something stronger is more appropriate. If you don't know your skin type is best to see a dermatologist.

Step four: Apply a thin layer of cleanser on your face

Take a drop of cleanser in your wet palm and lather it then apply it on your face. Diluting the cleanser before the use it’s a good idea since water activates the ingredients. Also, the cleansers come in a concentrated form and if applied in large amounts can dry out the skin.

Most people believe that scrubbing the face will help them clean it better. Nothing more wrong than that! By scrubbing hard you risk to break capillaries or aggravate an existing skin condition. Instead using cleanser with microbeads will do the proper skin scrubbing for you. Then you can massage your face gently in circular motion. This will improve the blood flow in your skin.

Step five: Rinse and pat dry your face

Use room-temperature water to rinse your face. Make sure you covered all area you used cleanser on. Failing to do so it may result in residues that can block you skins pores and aggravates acne. Dry your face with a clean soft towel. Never rub the towel but instead just pet dry your face.

You know now the proper cleansing routine so acne will be slowly but surely forgotten.
