Is Double Cleansing Necessary?
Let’s Get Into It! 🧼✨
Hey glow-getters!
Let’s talk about something that’s got the skincare world buzzing (and for good reason): DOUBLE CLEANSING!
Is it just a trend or a total game-changer? Let’s break it down — emoji style!
What is Double Cleansing?
It’s exactly what it sounds like:
Two steps. One fresh face.
1️⃣ Step one: Oil-based cleanser
2️⃣ Step two: Water-based or gentle foaming cleanser
Why tho?
Because life is messy — and so is your face by 8PM.
When You NEED to Double Cleanse
You should definitely double cleanse if you:
💄 Wear makeup
☀️ Apply SPF (yes, every day!)
🏙️ Live in a city with pollution
🏋️♀️ Sweat at the gym or outdoors
Oil-based cleansers break down makeup, sunscreen, excess oil, and gunk.
Your second cleanse washes away the leftover dirt, sweat, and impurities.
Result?
✨ A deep clean without stripping your skin. Just pure, breathable glow.
Benefits of Double Cleansing
✔️ Prevents breakouts
✔️ Helps serums + treatments absorb better
✔️ Leaves skin feeling baby soft
✔️ Helps you wake up with ✨glow goals✨
But Do I Have to Double Cleanse Every Night?
Not always!
If you went bare-faced and stayed home? One gentle cleanse may be fine.
But on glam, sunscreen, or city-dusty days? DOUBLE UP!
Your Perfect Pair
Step 1: Try an oil-based cleanser like La Bella Cleansing Oil with CitraC Plus
Step 2: Follow with something gentle like Cucumber Daily Cleanser or Men’s Sage & Shea Soothing Cleanser
Your skin will say, "thank you!"
And you’ll say, "hello, glow!"
Final Thoughts
Think of double cleansing like brushing AND flossing your face.
You wouldn’t skip floss, right? (Okay... maybe sometimes. But not anymore!)
So treat your skin to the double love it deserves.
Stay fresh, stay glowing!
