Why wash your face?
FACTS
Your skin produces sebum around the clock, even while you sleep. Mixed with dead skin cells, dirt from your hands and bedding and pollution from the air, it builds up on the surface. Over time, that can contribute to clogged pores and leave your skin feeling greasy. Cleansing removes it and gives the rest of your routine a clean start.
FUNCTION
Without regular cleansing, skin often looks shiny and dull at the same time, and the risk of blackheads and breakouts can increase. But cleansing too often or with too harsh a product weakens the skin barrier and leaves you with dryness and irritation instead. The goal is to remove what doesn’t belong there without stripping what does.
HOW TO
Cleanse morning and night. In the morning you remove the sebum that has built up overnight. In the evening you remove dirt, pollution and everything your skin has produced during the day. Apply a small amount of Face Wash to a damp face, massage in gently and rinse with lukewarm water. Face Wash is formulated to cleanse without disrupting your skin’s moisture balance. Always follow with moisturiser. One simple habit, but the foundation for everything else in your routine.
