Washing your face after cleansing is an important step to thoroughly wash away all the dirt and cleansing agents that were removed during cleansing and to keep your skin clean. Below are the basic steps for washing your face after cleansing.
- **wash hands:**
- Before you start washing your face, make sure your hands are clean by washing them with soap or cleanser.
- **Wet your face with warm water:**
- Wet your face with lukewarm water to open your pores, which will allow the cleanser to penetrate your skin more easily.
- **Pick up face wash:**
- Take the facial cleanser you want to use and work it into a lather using the pads of your fingers. This is usually a foam or gel type facial cleanser.
- **Wash gently with foam:**
- Apply the foam to your hands and gently rub your face in circular motions to thoroughly remove any remaining cleanser and makeup.
- **Pay special attention to the T-zone:**
- Focus on washing areas that are prone to oil secretion, such as the T-zone (forehead, nose, chin). If you have stubborn blackheads, a gentle massage can help.
- **Rinse:**
- Rinse your face thoroughly with lukewarm water. It is important to rinse thoroughly so that no cleanser remains.
- **Gently press the towel over your face:**
- Don't dry your face with a towel. Instead, gently pat your face dry. Rubbing can irritate the skin, so be gentle.
- **Apply lotion and skin care:**
- After washing your face, use lotion and moisturizer to keep your skin hydrated. Moisturizing after washing your face is important to condition your skin and prevent it from drying out.
It is important to choose skin care products after washing your face according to your skin condition. If you have sensitive skin, choose products that are less irritating. Also, washing your face both morning and night will help keep your skin clean and healthy.
