You use makeup cleanser by applying it, emulsifying it with water to break down makeup, rinsing it off, and wiping your face clean with a dry towel.
Here's a more detailed breakdown of how to effectively use makeup cleanser, specifically referencing cleansing oil as shown in the provided video snippet:
-
Apply Cleansing Oil/Cleanser: Gently massage the makeup cleanser (like a cleansing oil) onto dry skin. This allows the oil to directly interact with and dissolve makeup, dirt, and impurities.
-
Emulsify with Water: Add some water to your face. The water will mix with the cleansing oil, causing it to emulsify. Emulsification is the process where the oil breaks down further, suspending the makeup and dirt in the water. This makes it easier to rinse everything away.
-
Rinse Thoroughly: Rinse your face thoroughly with water to remove all traces of the cleanser and dissolved makeup.
-
Wipe Clean: Pat your face dry with a clean, dry towel. This completes the initial makeup removal process.
-
Check for Residue: Pay special attention to areas like the eyes, where makeup tends to linger. Gently wipe away any residual makeup, especially eye makeup, using the towel or a specialized eye makeup remover if needed.
Following these steps will help ensure your makeup is effectively removed, leaving your skin clean and ready for the next steps in your skincare routine.
