Firstly, let’s cover how to cleanse your face and why this is an important part of your daily skincare routine. Cleansers are high-performance products that gently remove makeup, dirt, sunscreen, pollution, and dead skin cells from your skin. Why is this important? Well, as well as leaving you with makeup-free skin, cleansing provides a clean base upon which your serum or moisturiser can soak in more deeply. So not only will your skin look and feel refreshed, but your products will work harder, too. As always, make sure you follow up with a moisturiser. Freshly cleansed skin is super absorbent so will gladly lap up the benefits. We love Beauty Flash Balm– a cult favourite that instantly moisturises, brightens and tightens facial contours, leaving skin firm and replenished. Does oil cleansing work for acne? You can cleanse in the morning or evening, depending on what works best for you and your routine. We don’t recommend cleansing more than once a day, so try to avoid doubling up. If you oil cleanse in the morning, use a water-based makeup remover at night to avoid overloading your skin with oil. If you have sensitive or very dry skin, you may be nervous that a toner may only exacerbate the problem. However, choosing an effective toner that’s tailored to your skin type is essential to redress balance and restore comfort to your complexion. Infused with Purple Coneflower and Camomile extracts, Clarins Soothing Toning Lotion for dry/sensitive skin sends a shot of hydration straight to the source of discomfort, intensely soothing your complexion by rebalancing your skin’s natural microbiota (the bacteria that lives on skin to keep it healthy). The result? Tightness, redness, and imperfections are smoothed away, leaving a soft and refreshed complexion.

Pump some oil into your hand (we find a little goes a long way) and massage onto the skin in small, circular motions. Take extra care around the eye area where the skin is thinner and more fragile. Step 3: Massage some more On the other hand, sensitive skin may only require cleansing once every few days to avoid irritation. Is cleansing oil good for oily skin? The oil in the cleanser is also able to dissolve substances with a similar chemical structure – such as dirt, excess oil and makeup – making it easy to remove the impurities that lead to clogged pores. Hello happy, hydrated skin. Turn it up a notch… Before we dive into how often to oil cleanse and how to use cleansing oil properly, you want to know if it actually works, right? Well, yes, it does – and on all skin types too! As well as leaving no greasy residue on the skin, oil cleansers cleverly cling to excess oil which makes removing impurities, makeup and sweat simple and effective.Essentially, a cleanser removes the dirt and makeup from your pores so the beneficial ingredients in your toner, serum, and moisturiser can get exactly where they need to be. And just like cleansers, the best toner for you depends on multiple factors, such as specific skin concerns, texture preference, and skin type.

Trust us on this one! Aim for around two to three minutes of gentle massaging to allow your skin time to fully soak up the benefits of the oil – your skin will love you for it. Step 4: Wipe away Try using one of Clarins’ one-step cleansing lotions and toners, such as Water Purify One-Step Cleanser with Mint Essential Water. Its unique formula is mild and gently cleanses skin by removing impurities and any traces of makeup with a fresh, non-foaming action.Warm water helps to open up your pores which makes it easier to remove impurities from deeper within the skin. Massage for a minute or so to really encourage those pores to open. Step 2: Get massaging
