Double cleansing: the best method to clean your skin

Adopting a double cleansing routine is important to maintain healthy and clean skin. Double cleansing involves using two different types of cleansers to thoroughly clean your skin. The first cleanse removes makeup, dirt, or pollutants that have accumulated on your skin during the day. The second cleanse removes any remaining impurities and deeply cleanses your skin. If you missed our article explaining the steps of double cleansing and its history, here it is: the importance of double cleansing.

 

WHY ADOPT A DOUBLE CLEANSING ROUTINE?

Here are some of the main reasons why you should adopt a double cleansing routine:

• Removes all impurities: double cleansing ensures that all impurities are removed from your skin, leaving it clean and fresh. Even if you use a high-quality cleanser, it is impossible to remove all the dirt, oil, and makeup from your skin in one go. This is especially true if you wear a lot of makeup or live in a polluted area.
• Helps prevent breakouts: pores clogged with impurities can cause acne or skin breakouts. By removing all the dirt, oil, and makeup from your skin, double cleansing prevents various skin problems while leaving a clean and clear finish.
• Improves skin texture: this method can also help improve your skin's texture, leaving it smoother and softer. Practiced daily, it guarantees positive results over time.
• Increases the effectiveness of other skincare products: this technique allows for deep cleansing, not just surface cleaning. When your skin is covered with impurities, the products you use cannot penetrate or work properly. As a result, some remain on the surface of your skin, accumulating with the various impurities encountered throughout your day.
• Promotes a healthy complexion: by keeping your skin clean and free of impurities, double cleansing promotes a healthy and radiant complexion. It will also help reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. Allowing your skin to breathe will undoubtedly make it healthy and plump.

 

In summary, adopting a double cleansing routine is an important element of a healthy skincare regimen. It helps remove all impurities, prevent breakouts, improve skin texture, increase the effectiveness of other skincare products, and promote a radiant complexion. If you are not already double cleansing, consider adding this step to your skincare routine—your skin will thank you!

 

IS IT MORE EFFECTIVE?

Double cleansing, as previously mentioned, allows you to deeply cleanse your skin. This method is, of course, more effective than a single cleanse, and here’s why:

• Better makeup removal: Double cleansing is particularly effective for removing makeup.Indeed, the first step dissolves and removes makeup present on the surface of the skin. Meanwhile, the second step allows for a deep cleansing of any remaining impurities. Effective makeup removal is therefore guaranteed!
• Suitable for all skin types: Double cleansing can be beneficial for every skin type, from oily to dry. The first cleanse helps remove excess sebum and impurities, while the second hydrates and nourishes your skin. This makes double cleansing a versatile option that can benefit everyone, regardless of your skin type.
• Time and money saving: Although it may seem that double cleansing would take more time and require more products, it can actually save you time and money in the long run. When your skin is properly cleansed, you will likely need fewer products to see results.A saving of money on the purchase of your products, but also time in your daily routine, can be expected!

 

In conclusion, double cleansing can be more effective than single cleansing for various reasons. It can help to deeply cleanse your skin, remove makeup and other impurities, improve the absorption of other skincare products, and benefit all skin types.

 

 

 

HOW TO ADOPT IT FOR MAXIMUM EFFECTIVENESS?

For the least aggressive makeup removal possible, it is best to avoid makeup removers that irritate the skin, such as micellar waters and makeup remover wipes.We also track mineral oils, these petrochemical derivatives that clog pores and cause numerous imperfections, under "paraffinum liquidum" or "mineral oil," especially if you have acne-prone skin.

Our makeup remover oil is 100% non-comedogenic and made from 2 organic and French oils! Plum oil helps prevent skin aging thanks to vitamin E and has an antioxidant effect. Sunflower oil is known for its softening and smoothing properties. It keeps the skin comfortable.

On the cleansing side, we avoid overly harsh cleansers that irritate the skin and are therefore counterproductive.If the gel or cleansing cream causes tingling or irritation, it means it is not suitable for you!

Our purifying cleansing care is a dermatological bar without allergens and without soap. It has a neutral pH to avoid drying out and irritating the skin. It cleanses and purifies your skin thanks to green clay and noni extracts without stripping it, in order to maintain its balance.

 

ACTIONS TO AVOID?

• Micellar water: These lotions are very rich in detergents that denature the hydrolipidic film. And when the lipid barrier is altered, say hello to dehydration and sensitivities!
• Just water: Applying only water to your face is pointless.Imagine the result if you did your dishes with just a little water…
• Makeup remover wipes : This is the same problem as micellar water because wipes are a portable product intended for occasional use. Impurities are moved around and not removed. Here too, the skin may react by increasing irritations and small pimples. Not to mention the friction from the wipe, which aggresses your skin.

 

WHICH ACCESSORIES FOR DOUBLE CLEANSING?

To facilitate and enhance the effects of Korean double cleansing, it is possible to use specific accessories: a Konjac sponge to stimulate microcirculation or a makeup remover pad woven from natural fibers for deep cleansing.

Beyond their effectiveness, these accessories are pleasant to use, for a 100% zen and relaxing evening routine!

We say yes to double cleansing, but with the right products and the right methods!
