Cleansers

How often do you wash your face….properly??

Now if you are a slave to the make-up wipe… LORDDDD, if we ever meet i am going to throw those things away in front of you. Make-up wipes are THE DEVIL! They firstly…are supppperrrr unsunstaible. They a long long time to degrade…if at all, they come in single use plastic packaging and they block up water systems. Not only that, but guys… THEY ARE NOT EVEN WASHING YOUR FACE!!!! Your face may look clean, but there is an army of make-up and dirt embedded into your pores that will not of been removed. These can then build up to create blemishes, premature ageing imbalances in the skin.

So therefore- using a good cleanser is essential!

When it comes to cleaning… Night time is a MUST… if you have make-up on then It’s always good to do a double cleanse. The first cleanse- I like to use an oil cleanser such as By Sarah Raspberry seed oil cleanser, PAI- Rosehip cleansing oil or Korres wild rose cleansing oil. Oil works really well to break the make-up down and clean it off, the second cleanse is to deep cleanse your skin so using a wash is best!

If you are just wearing SPF in the day…you STILL need to wash your face at night. SPF will sit in your pores, it’s designed to stay on your skin…and that’s what it will do until you wash your face.

Let’s talk about mornings.

Many people think we don’t need to wash our face in the mornings because we did it the night before.

I understand where they are coming from…but what about any perspiring through the night, touching our faces, dirt from the pillow…all of this bacteria builds up. PLUS, we would then go and put make-up on TOP of this and packing it into our skin through the day….ewwww GROSS. So, moral of the story- wash your face is the mornings too! :o)
