Have you ever wondered if you are washing your face correctly? Well, you are not alone. Washing your face is more than soap and water. Learn them now so you’ll know how to wash your face the *right* way every time.
Wash Your Face Every Day
You should wash your face at least once a day. It doesn’t matter if you didn’t wear makeup. Washing your face helps get rid of all the dirt and gunk that can cause skin irritation, inflammation, and acne breakouts.
PS: Use warm water. Don’t use cold or hot water.
Remove Make up
One of the best and gentle ways to remove your make up is to use an oil-based makeup remover.
Rubbing your face dry
Try not to rub your face when you dry it since this can encourage wrinkles and irritate the skin. Also, make sure you have your own towel, a clean, soft towel to dry your fresh face.
Use a moisturizer
Don’t wait to use a moisturizer after cleansing, to maximize absorption and help seal in moisture apply immediately after cleansing while skin is still damp.
Exfoliating too much
It might be tempting to cleans for a longer amount of time or with more ferocity in the hope that you will wash your face more thoroughly. But in reality, over-exfoliation can lead to dehydration and inflammation. All you need is 20 to 30 seconds, or until the product lathers up on your face.
