Hi Community,
Foaming cleansing oils are a fantastic hybrid skincare product, offering the profound cleansing benefits of an oil with the gentle, airy lather of a traditional cleanser. If you're new to this type of cleanser, here are some tips to maximize their benefits:
APPLICATION IS KEY💙
Start Dry: Unlike many cleansers, foaming cleansing oils work best on dry skin. Dispense a pump or two into your palm and gently massage it onto your dry face. This allows the oil to effectively break down makeup, sunscreen, and sebum without being diluted.
Emulsify with Water: Once you've massaged the oil into your skin, wet your hands and continue massaging. The oil will transform into a milky, luxurious lather. This emulsification helps lift impurities away from the skin.
Rinse Thoroughly: Ensure you thoroughly rinse your face with lukewarm water to remove all traces of the cleanser. Leftover residue can contribute to clogged pores.
THINGS TO KEEP IN MIND 💙
Gentle is Key: Even though it foams, cleansing oil is still a gentle option. Use light, circular motions when massaging—there's no need to scrub aggressively.
Double Cleanse (Optional): You might benefit from a double cleanse if you wear heavy makeup or sunscreen. Use a dedicated makeup remover or Miceller water before using your foaming cleansing oil.
Not Just for Oily Skin: Don't let the word "oil" scare you! Foaming cleansing oils can be suitable for various skin types, even those prone to dryness. The key is to choose a formula that suits your skin type.
This cleanser is often used with the Blemish Control Cleanser. As a first cleanse.
