Double cleansing is one of the most important elements of skin care routines: During the course of the day all kinds of impurities are deposited on your skin. To effectively care for your skin, you must first remove it thoroughly. Using a cleansing balm is the first step in the popular double cleansing method.
Why? Oil binds oil – and therefore oil-based impurities can only be removed with oil-containing cleaners without leaving a trace. When you massage them into your skin, oil-based cleansers remove make-up, sebum, SPF, smog and other oily impurities.
Cleansing foam or cleansing gels are the second type of cleansers: they are water-based cleansers. A water-based cleanser is the partner in crime of every oil cleaner and takes over the second step of double facial cleansing.
Why? Massaged into your skin, water-based cleansers remove any remaining water-soluble contaminants such as sweat. Your skin is now thoroughly, double cleansed and ready for the next steps in your skincare routine.

During the day, the sun can cause lasting damage to your skin – even in winter! Therefore, always wear sunscreen if you plan to spend more than 15 minutes outside.
During the night, you can ensure that your skin is getting the most out of your beauty sleep by using a night mask or night balm beforehand. You can apply these products as the last step of your evening skincare routine to protect and repair your skin overnight.
