Facial Cleansing

 

Proper skin care begins with proper cleansing.

There are many types of facial cleansers on the market. Based on most facial cleansers I suggest the following protocol for cleansing the facial area.

Apply cleanser and massage gently in circular motions on the face and decollete area for at least 3 minutes.

Another tip is using your hands that have the cleanser on them to clean the inner and out ear area.  Bacteria can clog this sensitive area and create unwanted blackheads.

Depending on your preference or skin type you may choose to use a soft cloth to rinse face or  splashing water to rinse.

For skin that has rosecea, acne or is aging,  I suggest rinsing facial cleanser with water and a dry pat and not using a face cloth to rub the facial area. That could agitate the acne or rosacea skin and pull and tug on aging skin that is losing its elasticity.

Proper protocol for cleansing is morning and evening.

Enjoy your facial cleanser…if it does not work for you or you don’t love it, you may want to switch brands.

My Particular favorite Is Eminence Red Rose Cleanser…works best for me because it is a gently lotion that removes all my make-up and dirt and gentle enough to remove my eye make-up and is also healing for my sensitive rosacea skin.
