That\u2019s why your evening skincare routine is so important. Learn how to properly cleanse your skin so it stays youthful and looks healthy for longer.   <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why is removing your makeup every day so important?<\/h3>\n\n<p>Careful daily makeup removal is the key to beautiful skin. It only takes a few minutes, but it can save you from long-term treatment if skin issues caused by impurities arise. It\u2019s important to know that even going to bed with makeup on just once can lead to breakouts.   <\/p>\n\n<p>What\u2019s more, removing your makeup is essential so that your skin can absorb the active ingredients in your night cream.<\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How should you cleanse your skin?<\/h3>\n\n<p>Washing your face with soap can dry out your skin and, as a result, lead to breakouts. To prevent irritation and skin problems, whether or not you wore makeup that day, you need to thoroughly cleanse your face before going to bed.  <\/p>\n\n<p>A two-step skincare routine is a simple ritual that will not only leave your skin clean and refreshed, but also provide it with essential minerals and vitamins.<\/p>\n\n<p>Step-by-step two-step makeup removal:<\/p>\n\n<p>1. Remove your makeup with micellar water.<\/p>\n\n<p>Start with the areas around your mouth and eyes, then use a cotton pad to wipe the rest of your face and neck.<\/p>\n\n<p>2. Wash your face with a cleansing gel or foam.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Once your skin is cleansed, wash it using circular motions with lukewarm water and a product that restores the skin\u2019s natural pH balance. Finally, gently dab your face with a dry cotton pad to check for any remaining makeup.  <\/strong><\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How can you tell if you\u2019ve removed your makeup properly?<\/h3>\n\n<p>Proper makeup removal is more than just washing your face. <\/p>\n\n<p>Effective makeup removal should also:<\/p>\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>refresh the complexion,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>tone and restore the skin&#8217;s natural pH balance,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>soothe irritation.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What makeup removers should I use?<\/h3>\n\n<p>The ingredients and effects of a facial cleanser are just as important as those of a cream.<\/p>\n\n<p>In addition to cleansing ingredients, your makeup remover should also contain active ingredients that protect your skin. <\/p>\n\n<p>Concentrated natural plant extracts are particularly valuable, as they moisturize and restore balance. <\/p>\n\n<p>Please note:<\/p>\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>green tea extract<\/strong>\u2014has anti-aging properties, protects against free radicals, and improves skin elasticity,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>papaya and pineapple extracts<\/strong>\u2014stimulate skin regeneration,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>calendula extract<\/strong> &#8211; has moisturizing and regenerating properties,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>witch hazel extract<\/strong>\u2014strengthens the skin and provides it with antioxidants,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>grapefruit extract <\/strong>&#8211; refreshes and tones.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n<p>You&#8217;ll find these ingredients in the MICELLAR micellar makeup remover.<\/p>\n\n<p>For sensitive skin, we recommend the gentle NON-DRYING Facial Cleansing Foam. This rosewater-based product effectively removes impurities without irritating the skin\u2019s hydrolipid barrier. If you have couperose skin, the Phenom\u00e9 foam will soothe and relax your skin.   <\/p>\n\n<p>If you have oily or combination skin, a facial cleanser would be a better choice for you <strong>. Containing as many as eight active ingredients, this gel restores the skin\u2019s balance, unclogs pores, and removes excess sebum without compromising the skin\u2019s protective barrier. Washing your face with this gel, enriched with white tea and pomegranate extracts, will help your skin get rid of blackheads, leaving your complexion matte without feeling dry.  <\/strong><\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How do you remove your makeup like a pro?<\/h3>\n\n<p>It\u2019s not just what you use to remove your makeup that matters, but also how you do it. Here are a few tips to help your skin get even more out of your cleansing routine:  <\/p>\n\n<p><strong>1. Eye makeup removal.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p>Soak a cotton pad with micellar water and place it on your eyelid; leave it there for a minute to allow the product to dissolve the makeup. Do not rub, to avoid irritating the sensitive skin around your eyes. It\u2019s also important not to move the cotton pad from the inner corner of the eye toward the edges of the face, as this stretches the skin and can cause fine lines to appear. Instead, remove makeup with a downward motion or from the outside toward the center.   <\/p>\n\n<p><strong>2. Make sure the water you use to cleanse your face is of good quality.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p>When using a facial cleanser, use lukewarm water. Hot water can dry out your skin, and water that\u2019s too cold won\u2019t effectively remove impurities. Also avoid hard water. Hard water, which comes from most taps, dries out the skin and can cause irritation. If you don\u2019t have a water softener installed on your tap, you can pour the water through a filter pitcher first or add a few drops of lemon juice.     <\/p>\n\n<p><strong>3. Morning makeup removal.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p>It\u2019s important to remember that removing your makeup before bed doesn\u2019t mean you don\u2019t need to cleanse your face when you wake up. At night, your skin produces sebum, sweats, and can also become dry due to air conditioning or radiators. Therefore, before applying makeup, follow a two-step cleansing routine again.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After a whole day of exposure to fluctuating temperatures, makeup that makes it hard to breathe, and dealing with air pollution, your skin is just as tired as you are after many hours of multitasking.
