Double-cleansing is a habit I’ve gotten into for the past few years. I reckon it’s also because I started to wear makeup on a regular basis and also slather a lot more sunscreen than I ever did back in Malaysia. My skin needed better cleansing, and the double-cleansing routine has helped my skin tremendously.
I purchased Dermalogica’s Precleanse at the Dermalogica FITE Night event a while back. I’ve heard so many good things about this cleanser, I knew I simply had to give it a go.
Description:
A lightweight Olive and Apricot Kernel-based cleansing oil, fortified with Kukui Nut, Borage Seed and Rice Bran oils, that gently liquefies sebum and oil-based debris from the skin’s surface. The hydrophilic (water-loving) formula enables PreCleanse and oil-based debris to be readily rinsed away without leaving behind any greasy residue. Follow with prescribed Dermalogica Cleanser for a thorough double cleansing. Contains no artificial fragrance or color.
This is an oil-based cleanser. You start off by applying the clear oil to your dry hands, rub ’em palms together and then massage your face (make sure it’s dry). I normally give my skin a nice, gentle massage for a minute before I wash it off with water. When water touches the oil, it will emulsify to a milky substance.
