Oil Cleanse
Double cleansing is a core element of Korean skincare routines: Throughout the day, different kind of impurities layer on your skin. In order to effectively care for your skin, it is key to thoroughly remove all of them. The usage of a cleansing balm or a cleansing oil is the first step of the much praised double cleansing procedure.
Function
Massaged into your skin, oil-based cleansers gently clean it from oil-based impurities such as makeup, sebum, SPF and pollution. They leave your skin deeply nourished and clean without stripping it from its natural oils.
Usage
Use an oil-based cleanser such as The Calm Balm as the first product of the double cleansing procedure to remove your make up and deeply cleanse your face after a long day:
Warm the the cleanser between your fingers and massage it in circular motions all over your face.
Wet your fingertips with a little bit of water and emulsify the product on your face. Keep on massaging. Don't forget your eye makeup!
Wet a muslin cloth with hot water and wring it. Place the damp hot cloth on your face and wait a moment for the steam to open your pores. Take a deep breath to enjoy the scent and your self-created spa moment.
Gently wipe the cloth in upwards motion to remove makeup and excess sebum. Don´t forget your neck and décolleté.
Grab a cleansing foam for the second part of deep double cleansing.
