Double Cleansing Method3 Comments2 May 2021 | Admin There is a saying: If you spend 15 minutes applying your make-up, you should spend 15 minutes removing it. Since we use long lasting lipsticks and long wearing foundations, we need to pay particular attention to removing those thoroughly so we don’t cause any pigmentation and skin dullness. On top of it, airborne bacteria and pollution is attracted to your skin throughout the day, and if they aren't washed away properly, they could potentially contribute to ageing and breakouts. A quick cleanse with a face wipe will do very little to dislodge foundation and pollution particles, and you aren't giving your skin cells the best chance at regenerating which means no plump, youthful complexion. Definitely consider to Double Cleanse if you are wearing make-up and/or sunscreen and provides a deep clean at night time.

I have been using Gerlinde's skin care for a while now and my skin has never looked better. I love my nightly routine and the double cleansing method is great. I'm 59 and I wish I would have started sooner!
I'm a long time skin care devotee and heard about double cleansing some time ago. It has been a part of the Korean women's complicated skin care routine for a long time. It is only recently become popular here in the UK. In years gone past I used eye makeup remover, cream cleanser and then a foam cleanser if I wanted a deep clean, but I stopped using any type of foaming cleanser due to dryness/menopause/eczema. An oil or balm followed by a cream cleanser is much better for my skin. I don't double cleanse every night as I don't wear makeup everyday. If I haven't been out of the house and therefore haven't applied sunscreen or makeup, then the cream cleanser is effective on it's own. I think it's important to really look at your skin to decide what it needs that day, rather than just doing the same thing all the time. Both the oil and cream cleansers mentioned in the article are fabulous and I recommend them highly. I also like the lighter textured milk and a less dry skin than mine may prefer it over the cream that suits my skin so well.
