double cleansing
quick double cleansing summary!
the general concept of double cleansing is that you need to remove any makeup and/or sunscreen before you can properly cleanse your skin
double cleansing isnt always necessary, especially not in the morning but as soon as you start to apply water resistant sunscreen, double cleansing is the way to go
there is a ton of balms and oils that emulsify in contact with water, one of the most known ones is probably the heimish all clean balm
but! if youre like me and havent found the right cleansing oil you can double cleanse with pure oils too
i just dont like the ones ive tried, they either leave a film or sting my eyes or just something else that bothers me
so, what i do to remove sunscreen and any makeup is to massage my oil of choice (currently using hemp) onto dry skin, then wet my face and just continue with my cleanser as normal
this removes any traces of sunscreen and oil without the annoying emulsify part
so if you have trouble finding the right cleansing oil for you, try this with your favorite pure oil! just make sure its cosmetic grade & that youre washing it off properly
