Introduction Double cleansing is an increasingly popular skincare technique originating from South Korea. This method involves using two specific products for a deep and thorough cleansing. But how does it actually work? And who really needs it? Let’s find out together. What Is Double Cleansing? Double cleansing is a facial cleansing method that consists of two distinct phases: Oil Cleanse: The first step involves applying a cleansing oil to remove makeup, impurities, and excess sebum. Gel or Foam Cleanse: The second step involves using a water-based cleanser to complete the cleansing process and remove any oil residue. How to Do Double Cleansing? Here’s a step-by-step guide to practicing double cleansing correctly: 1. Choose the Right Products It is essential to opt for a cleansing oil and a gel or foam suitable for your skin type. DermaDea offers a selection of products tailored to every need. 2. First Step: Cleansing Oil Apply an adequate amount of oil to dry skin and gently massage to dissolve makeup and impurities. Rinse with lukewarm water. 3. Second Step: Gel or Foam Cleanser Apply the gel or foam to damp skin and massage well. Rinse again with lukewarm water. Who Needs Double Cleansing? Double cleansing is particularly useful for: Those who wear heavy or waterproof makeup. Those living in polluted areas. Those with oily or combination skin who tend to produce excess sebum.
