DON'T FORGET IT IN YOUR EVENING ROUTINE
I've also forgotten it sometimes after a really long day or a fun party, and then I crawl into bed with makeup (ouch ouch ouch) or without cleansing. The next morning, I don't feel particularly refreshed, and I feel guilty, too, because yes, I was incredibly tired, but a quick cleanse allowed my skin to recover properly overnight, and now the makeup was backfiring. Not good! So I try to avoid that completely. Even if you're exhausted, the sun is already rising again—really try to cleanse your skin every now and then —I'm not a fan, but even do it with a simple cleansing cloth! No more excuses. And then, of course, a good, refreshing, proper cleansing in the morning.
CLEAN WELL EVEN IN SUMMER BEFORE RINSING AWAY SUNSCREEN!
So it's incredibly important to cleanse your skin morning and night. And especially focus on the evening, because that's when you need to wash away all the day's grime: pollution, makeup, sweat, excess oil, and especially now in summer, your sunscreen! If you don't cleanse your skin, you increase the risk of blemishes, pimples, and subcutaneous inflammation, and you'll be far from achieving a smooth, beautiful, healthy complexion.
A GENTLE BUT EFFECTIVE CLEANSE
Your cleanser needs to be able to withstand a lot of dirt and cleanse your skin deeply, but gently. Cleansers with excessive foaming are generally a no-go, as they will only strip your skin, damage its natural barrier, and dry it out. Choose a mild, non-foaming cleanser, even if you have oily or combination skin , as drying out your skin will only trigger more sebum production, making you even shinier. A mild cleanser will cleanse deep down into the pores, but won't leave your skin feeling squeaky clean and tight afterward.
SELF GENTLE PURIFYING CLEANSER
I naturally opted for a gentle cleanser that can be used by all skin types, even the most sensitive . The Gentle Purifying Facial Cleanser is a refreshing, gently cleansing facial milk with multifunctional properties. It removes all makeup and other impurities without damaging or drying out your skin barrier. You can even use Boost of Freshness on the delicate and thinner skin around the eyes. Our cleanser has superior cleansing qualities, but also leaves the skin nourished and won't compromise its moisture balance. On the contrary, thanks to its many nourishing ingredients, your skin will feel wonderfully soft afterward.
