If you’ve ever washed your face, patted it dry, and still noticed a little makeup smudge on your towel, you’ve already discovered the truth—sometimes, one cleanser isn’t enough.
Enter the double cleanse: a two-step method that’s about more than just getting squeaky clean. It’s about truly prepping your skin so your serums, masks, and moisturizers can work their magic.
Step 1: The Oil-Based Cleanser
Oil attracts oil. That means an oil-based cleanser or balm can break down stubborn sunscreen, waterproof mascara, and even excess sebum without tugging at your skin.
If you skip this step, your water-based cleanser might be working overtime—trying to get through all that buildup before it can even clean your skin.
Step 2: The Water-Based Cleanser
This is where Mi-el’s Gentle Face Cleanser comes in.
After your oil cleanse has removed the top layer of grime, Mi-el’s formula gently sweeps away sweat, leftover residue, and impurities without stripping your skin barrier. It’s the perfect second step to leave your face feeling clean, soft, and balanced.
How to do it:
-
Wet your face with lukewarm water.
-
Apply a small amount of Mi-el’s cleanser, massaging in gentle circular motions.
-
Rinse and pat dry.
Why Double Cleansing Works
-
Better product absorption – Your serums and moisturizers penetrate deeper.
-
Fewer breakouts – Less residue means fewer clogged pores.
-
Balanced skin – Removes buildup without over-drying.
When to Double Cleanse
You don’t need to do it every time you wash your face—once a day in the evening is plenty, especially after wearing SPF or makeup.
