✨ Are you actually cleansing your face properly?
It seems simple, but how you cleanse your skin can make a big difference.
I like to use a lotion cleanser rather than a foaming cleanser because it helps cleanse my skin without leaving it feeling dry or stripped.
🫧 I work the cleanser into my skin using small, gentle circular movements, making sure I cover the whole face rather than just quickly rubbing it on and washing it off.
I then remove it using a clean disposable facial towel, gently wiping over the skin. This also gives a little bit of light physical exfoliation to help lift away loosened dead skin cells — without scrubbing.
And remember… gentle is better! Your skin shouldn’t feel tight, squeaky clean or irritated after cleansing.
Healthy skin starts with the basics. 💙
