Achieving a Clean Canvas

Be diligent and go to bed every night with a clean face. Cleansed skin sets a clean canvas for everything else that is to follow. We are big fans of the double cleansing method that Korean women follow to achieve clear skin. Start off with an oil based cleanser to remove makeup and impurities without stripping the natural barrier of your skin, followed by a water-based cleanser. Living in a city with pollutants can be troubling for your skin too. Use a cleansing tool to help remove stubborn pore clogging dirt. After the crucial double cleanse method, remember to tone your skin. This step will help to balance your skin’s pH levels so that it will absorb the products that are to follow.
