Importance of Double Cleansing
It’s easy to skip or rush through cleansing, especially after a long day or a few glasses of wine. However, neglecting this crucial step can leave your skin clogged with dirt, grime, and makeup, leading to acne, blackheads, or a dull complexion. If clear, glowing skin is your goal, cleansing is the MOST important step in your skincare routine! Double cleansing offers a thorough clean that your skin will love. Read on to discover the benefits of double cleansing with MooGoo products!
What is Double Cleansing?
Double cleansing might seem like a new trend, but it actually originated in Korea in the 14th century and has become a skincare staple since then! Double cleansing involves a two-step process that ensures your face is fresh and clean by removing dirt, makeup, environmental pollutants, and dead skin. The process includes using two products: a cleanser that removes oil-based impurities such as oxidised sebum, SPF, makeup, and pollutants, followed by a second cleanser that addresses your specific skin type or concern. The second cleanser should ideally contain ingredients that hydrate, exfoliate, or treat acne. This way, any moisturisers or treatments applied afterward can work more effectively!
Benefits of Double Cleansing
Double cleansing is crucial in the evening to remove makeup, but it offers even more benefits for clear and luminous skin. Here’s why double cleansing with MooGoo products is so beneficial:
- Prevents Sebum Build-Up and Bacteria: Sebum and bacteria on the skin can cause infections leading to acne or breakouts. Double cleansing helps wash away these impurities.
- Removes Pollutants: City living exposes us to high levels of pollutants. Double cleansing removes these pollutants, which can otherwise contribute to aging and pigmentation.
- Improves the Efficacy of Other Skincare Products: Double cleansing ensures your face is extra clean, allowing other skincare products to penetrate better and work more effectively.
- Brightens Complexion: Regular double cleansing helps remove dullness and dead skin cells, leaving your complexion glowing!
- Helps Dry Skin: Using gentle products for double cleansing is more effective and less drying than using one strong product.
How to Double Cleanse
Double cleansing is not a one-size-fits-all approach. Choose the right cleansing duo based on your specific skin concerns. Here’s how to do it with MooGoo products:
Step 1
Start with a gentle cleanser to break down makeup and remove sebum build-up. Try our Gentle Foaming Face Cleanser. This pH-balanced face wash contains Papaya Fruit Extract to clarify the skin with gentle exfoliation and Calendula Extract to soothe breakouts and redness. It’s perfect for all skin types, including sensitive and blemish-prone skin.
Step 2
For the second step, use a cleanser suited to your specific skin type or concern. If you have dry skin, choose a product with hydrating ingredients. For acne-prone skin, opt for a cleanser with exfoliating agents. Our Creamy Hydrating Face Cleanser is an excellent option, made with coconut and glucose-based cleansers to gently cleanse without stripping the skin. It’s suitable for all skin types and also doubles as a light shaving cream.
