What is double cleansing?
Double cleansing involves thoroughly washing your face with two cleansers. The first step is using a makeup cleansing oil, followed by washing the face with a water-based cleanser. Cleansing in this way ensures that both types of impurities are removed from your skin, and your face gets the deepest, gentlest clean possible.
