Double Cleansing: Why One Wash Isn't Enough

What is Double Cleansing?
It is a two-step process using two different types of cleansers to address two different types of "dirt" on your face.
1. Step 1: The Oil-Based Cleanser (Cleansing Balm/Oil)
• The Science: Like dissolves like. Oil cleansers break down "lipophilic" debris: waterproof SPF, long-wear makeup, and your skin's own excess sebum.
2. Step 2: The Water-Based Cleanser (Gel/Foam/Milk)
• The Science: Now that the "shield" of oil is gone, this cleanser can actually reach your pores to remove sweat, bacteria, and environmental pollutants.
The Result: Fewer blackheads, reduced "maskne," and better absorption of your expensive serums.
