Usually, placing your face wash into a damp nubby washcloth is enough exfoliation.
WHAT IS MAC PREP AND PRIME USED FOR SKIN
The particles cause small micro-tears in your skin and is so harsh and abrasive that it is causing more harm than good to your face. NEVER use a product with microbeads or large particles to exfoliate- though this may be OK for your body, it is NOT for your face. Makeup remover pads are not my favorite, as they often have many additional ingredients that can irritate your skin or clog pores, but they're better than nothing if you're in a pinch.Įxfoliate about 4 times a week, or however often is best for your skin. Or try a cleansing cream or cleansing water. Coconut oil and olive oil are also excellent makeup removers- simply smooth some onto a cotton pad and wipe over your face.

I use Shiseido's cleansing oil for this step, which is excellent for oily skin because the additional oil reduces your skin's regular oil production and, since oil breaks up oil, starts the pore-cleaning process before I've even begun washing my face. Make sure that you've removed all of your makeup before washing it so that you can really clean out your pores. NEVER sleep in your makeup, to start, and wash your face twice daily (once in the evening with a thorough morning rinse if your skin is extra super duper dry). You should see a licensed esthetician to create a skincare system that is uniquely tailored to you, but you should always follow the basic guidelines below. The first step in prepping for your makeup application is taking care of your skin.
