In the world of Korean skincare, double cleansing is a must! Ever wondered how oil cleansers and water cleansers work their magic to help you achieve glowing skin? This Korean double cleansing: Oil & Water cleansers 101 guide will break it all down for you, from their unique benefits to how they tackle makeup, dirt, and excess sebum.
By the end, you'll know exactly which cleanser works for your specific skin type. Let's dive into the essentials of oil-based cleanser and water cleanser!
What's the difference?
Oil based cleansers: You can use an oil-based cleanser on all type of skin. They aid in cleansing your skin of excess sebum, pollutants, debris, SPF and makeup. In essence, it eliminates everything that is on the surface of your skin and in your pores. Does it seem contradictory to use an oil to ''degrease'' your skin? After all, you're attempting to get rid of extra oil! Well.. that's actually exactly what oil-based cleaners accomplish. The idea is that oil attracts oil. Korean oil-based cleansers work to restore the skin's oil supply with purer oils that will nourish it by gently dissolving oil that has bonded with germs, dead skin cells, makeup, and other debris. This also helps skin absorb the healthy elements in other products and has a moisturising and hydrating effect.
Water-based cleansers: Water-based cleansers aid in clearing away any remaining filth, grime, sweat or cleanser residue. They swiftly eliminate water-soluble particles as their target. "Only water removes water," which means that only a water-based cleanser can get rid of water-soluble impurities like sweat and dust that build up on the skin. This is the physical theory underlying water-based cleansers.
So, they both do the work for your skin. Which one should you choose? The answer is BOTH.
Why Double Cleansing is for everyone
Using the double cleansing method will ensure your skin is free from make-up, SPF, pollution debris and unclogs your pores. It also ensure that your skin is a clean canvas for all the active ingredients in your skincare routine to penetrate deeply and more effectively into your skin.
How to double cleanse?
- Oil-Based Cleanser: Apply the oil-based cleanser to dry skin, gently massaging it in circular motions. Focus on areas with heavy makeup or build-up like your nose. Emulsify then rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water.
- Water-Based Cleanser: Follow up with a water-based cleanser suitable for your skin type. Apply it to damp skin, lathering it up and gently massaging your face. Rinse off with lukewarm water and pat your skin dry.
How to choose the right cleanser for your skin type?
Choosing the right cleanser depends on a number of factors, including its composition, ingredients, skin type, and personal preferences.
