SKIN CLEANSING

Do’s & Don’ts of cleansing your face

Do’s

• Cleanse the skin twice daily – day time cleansing prevents excess oil production and balances overnight oil production; night time cleansing decreases pore size and dehydration while the anti-ageing ingredients work.
• Double Cleanse – the first cleanse will remove surface impurities and the second cleanse will penetrate deeper into the skin.
• If you’re acne prone or have acne, try leaving your cleanser on for a few minutes before removing it to give the skin a deeper clean.
• Follow your cleanse with treatment products and a moisturizer for your specific skin condition.
• Monitor your skin – regular consultation with your skincare practitioner is vital as the skin changes from time to time
• Remember that your daily skincare regime is incomplete until you have applied sun protection.

Don’ts

• Don’t forget to cleanse the skin twice daily
• Don’t forget to consult your skincare practitioner if you are not sure which cleanser is the best fit for your skin concern
• Don’t use a cleanser that leaves your skin feeling tight or dry – many of these strip the skin of this natural protective layer
• Don’t use a bar of soap designed for the body to wash your face – many bar soaps contain harsh detergents and additives that can strip the skin of natural oils, causing breakouts
• Don’t forget to apply sun protection – even on a cloudy day.

Remember … The sooner you start looking after your skin, the sooner you will see results. It’s never too soon to start looking after your skin!
