The Truth About Double Cleansing — Is It Worth It?
Share
🌿 What Is Double Cleansing?
Double cleansing means washing your face twice — first with an oil-based cleanser, then with a water-based cleanser.
This method, inspired by Korean skincare, ensures makeup, SPF, and impurities are fully removed before your nighttime routine.
✨ It’s not about over-washing — it’s about deep yet gentle cleansing.
💄 Step 1: The Oil Cleanser
Oil attracts oil — so using an oil cleanser helps break down makeup, sebum, and sunscreen without stripping your skin.
Choose lightweight formulas with natural oils like:
-
Jojoba
-
Grapeseed
-
Olive or sunflower seed oil
🩵 Tip: Massage for 30–60 seconds, then rinse with lukewarm water.
💧 Step 2: The Water-Based Cleanser
Next, use a foam or gel cleanser to remove leftover residue and sweat.
This step clears pores and preps your skin for serums and moisturizers.
✔ Best choices:
-
Oily skin: foaming cleanser with salicylic acid
-
Dry/sensitive skin: gentle cream or milk cleanser
🤍 Who Should Double Cleanse?
Double cleansing is great if you:
-
Wear makeup or sunscreen daily
-
Live in a city with pollution
-
Have oily or combination skin
If your skin is dry or sensitive, limit it to nighttime only to avoid over-cleansing.
