Do you clean your face correctly?

Who else, who less, has assumed that a clean complexion is the first step towards a luminous face, with healthy and youthful skin. But do we have the security of carrying out the ritual in the proper way?

We asked one of the most recognized aesthetic professionals both inside and outside our borders to clear up any doubts. Speaking with Consuelo Silveira, Director of the Consuelo Silveira Professional Aesthetics School, we analyzed the 5 most common habits:

Habit 1: "I don't remove my makeup, because I don't wear makeup"

Even without putting on make-up, the toxins that you spontaneously eliminate and external polluting agents are deposited on your skin throughout the day, forming an invisible layer. Your skin can't breathe.

Consuelo insists that “we will not maintain healthy and luminous skin over time if we are not able to dedicate just 5 minutes each night to rid it of that accumulation of undesirable particles that suffocate it and prevent its vital oxygenation before going to sleep. In addition, the action of the products that you apply later will not reach our skin.

Habit 2: "With makeup remover wipes"

It is a very comfortable solution... but only suitable for occasional emergency situations: an urgent trip in which you have forgotten your cosmetics, etc. "It is incomplete hygiene, sometimes irritating and deposits undesirable agents on the skin surface," Consuelo concludes.

Habit 3: "With make-up remover milk, which I remove with a cotton pad soaked in toner"

This way, we get it half right. “Removing make-up and/or cleaning the skin with milk, cream or oil to remove make-up is correct” ––confirms the professional– “but removing the product with a cotton pad soaked in tonic lotion will inhibit the perfect dragging of the cleaning product”.

According to the expert, the correct way to proceed is as follows: “Use a generous amount of milk, cream or make-up remover oil. Distribute it over the face, neck and décolleté with rapid, circular movements. Then remove the remaining product with tissue paper. Next, completely impregnate two cotton discs with tonic lotion and, with gentle friction, remove any possible traces of the cleaning product. With this gesture, we are at the same time balancing the skin's pH.

Habit 4: "With a gel and water"

The question is: what kind of gel? What kind of water? “Not all cleansing gels have the power to remove makeup or rid the skin of oily debris. You should consult the indications of its formula” –warns Consuelo–. “On the other hand, certain waters are excessively alkaline. If this is your case, you should rinse the skin with mineral or distilled water to emulsify and remove the gel.”

Regarding the cleansing gels, he points out: “They are better suited to oily skin, but it is an ideal complement in the correct cleaning of all skin types, bearing in mind that, in normal to dry skin, it should always be used after using cleansing milks, creams or oils.”

And the tonic lotion can not be missing to finish "properly distributed on two cotton discs."

Regarding lotions or micellar gels, “they give results in cleaning and removing make-up from skin intolerant to contact with water; They are an excellent solution in cases of excessive sensitivity, rosacea, dermatitis, etc.”

Habit 5: "With soap and water, because I have very oily skin"

Soap is not recommended even for oily skin, due to its high alkalinity. Consuelo points out that, on the other hand, the "Dermatological Bread" is perfect for oilier and/or acne-prone skin. The best for the hygiene of oily skin is a cleansing gel, "although, when it comes to removing makeup, there is nothing that equals a makeup remover milk, cream or oil, always removed with tissue paper, and then going on to the Cleaning gel". Regarding the cleansing gel, it also makes a clarification: "Some latest-generation gel cleansing formulas are already emulsified in water and have been packaged with a special pump that produces an instant "foam" ball." In this case, only water is used to remove the product, and generously.

On the contrary, traditional gels are previously emulsified in the palm of the hand or cleansing brush by adding water. Then, you rinse in the same way as the previous group, to remove the product perfectly and not leave any residue on the skin”.

It is important to properly cleanse the face.

Throughout the day, microorganisms are deposited on our skin that can seriously harm your health. In the same way that we take care of our diet, moderate the consumption of alcohol or do physical exercise, to protect our vital organs, we must bear in mind that the skin is one more organ, and because it is external and acts as a protective barrier for our entire body, it is exposed to bacteria and other impurities, which make it necessary for us to carry out a daily routine of cleaning and moisturizing it, in order to keep it soft and healthy. In the same way, just as we go to the doctor or the dentist not only to treat health problems but also preventively (control tests, etc.), we should proceed the same in the case of our skin. Put ourselves in the hands of experienced professionals to always keep it clean, well cared for and bright. Because a global healthy lifestyle is prevention, and prevention is the best medicine.
