The Importance of Double Cleansing

Hello lovelies! Whilst reading the cleansing cheat sheet from the fabulous Caroline Hirons blog Link
it occurred to me that perhaps my evening cleansing ritual is in fact not cleansing enough.

I am a huge believer in balm cleansers and washcloths as this is the best method of cleansing for me.
I normally rotate between EH Amazing Face and Liz Earl Cleanse and Polish.
Caroline says that you should cleanse twice when wearing makeup and sunscreen as these are designed to adhere to the skin and one cleanse is not sufficient enough to thoroughly clean your skin. Caroline says the only time she cleanses once is if she has been indoors all day with no make up on! This makes sense and I apply this to how I wash my hair as well, the first cleanse/ wash removes all the dirt and grime/build up the second cleanse works at getting those ingredients (which is why you bought the product in the first place) into your skin and getting the most out of them on a deeper level rather than just surface otherwise you are merely washing it away with your makeup and not benefiting from the true ingredients.

So last night I double cleansed with my Liz Earl Polish and low and behold it made a huge difference! My pores looked like they had been vacuumed, my skin was glowing, supple and when I went to put my Liz Earl Superskin Concentrate, it literally just melted into my new found skin. I woke up this morning to a beautiful, clear, nourished face! So from now on ladies and gentlemen I am doing the double cleanse!

 

Do you have a cleansing routine or are you a soap and water kind of person? Do tell!

Emma Hardie Amazing Face-Natural Sculpt Moringa Cleansing Balm

Hello lovelies!! I don't know about you, but I like a squeaky clean face when I remove my make-up.This little gem definitely does the job. I'm talking about the one and only Emma Hardie Amazing Face: Natural Sculpt Moringa Cleansing Balm. This absolutely does what it say on the tin!! Perfectly balanced daily cleansing for skin that craves clean.

Amazing Face removes all foundation, eye make-up and mascara. Take a pea sized amount in the palm of you hand and begin to massage your face, the balm literally melts away your make-up. I suggest leaving your eyes till the very end so you don't end up smearing mascara and eye shadow everywhere. Then take you EH cleansing cloth which is double sided. One side is a muslin texture and the other is flannel. I use the muslin side first which helps with exfoliation and I use the flannel side for my eyes and neck.
The combination of massage and cloth removal really boost the skins circulation, keeping it smooth, healthy, supple and hydrated.
I follow with a splash of cold water to close the pores, and follow with my night time treatments.

Watch my video below to see how I use EH Amazing Face in my daily cleansing routing

How easy peasy is that? I was a avid user of Liz Earl Cleanse and Polish but this comes up trumps!!
