How to Remove Every Single Speck of Sunscreen at the End of the DayWe asked some skin experts for tips |
If you're not yet a devotee of double cleansing, now could be a good time to try it. Simpson is always a fan of double cleansing. Double cleansing is exactly what it sounds like: Cleansing with two cleansers. Firstly, a cream or oil-based cleanser is used typically followed by a water-based one. The cleansers target different things and rid skin of impurities. Guanzon points out that double cleansing is a good method because the deep cleaning will take care of potential dirt, oil and sweat that can get trapped under many layers of sunscreen.
Worried about drying out skin? "Sunscreens don't normally strip skin of moisture, but overcleansing can," cautions Simpsons.
