The double cleanse, once considered a luxurious addition to your nightly skincare routine, has now become a crucial step for achieving clean and radiant skin. This two-step process has gained immense popularity worldwide for its effectiveness in removing daily dirt, oil, and grime, as well as preparing the skin to reap the full benefits of serums and moisturizers.
Originating centuries ago in 14th century Asia, the art of double cleansing was originally used to remove intricate makeup worn by performers of the time. Much like today, this ingenious method involved using two steps: applying a cleansing oil to the skin followed by a foaming face wash. Today, the double cleanse is a prominent feature in many skincare routines, as more individuals shift towards a natural beauty look that emphasizes a healthy, glowing complexion without relying on makeup.
However, amid the hype, you might wonder about the real benefits of double cleansing and whether it’s worth the extra step. To shed light on this, we interviewed Dr. Kelly Mattone, the owner of Aesthetic Medical Studio in New York, to provide some insights:
Q: Double cleansing has undeniably gained popularity in recent years, but what sets it apart and makes it so essential compared to a single cleanse?
Dr. Mattone: Many people are unaware that there are two types of impurities on the skin, and most cleansers can effectively address only one of them, leaving behind residual dirt, oil, and impurities. The first type is oil-based impurities, which include makeup, sunscreen, and excess sebum. The second type consists of water-based impurities, which involve pollutants, dirt, and dead skin cells. With a double cleansing routine that incorporates both an oil and foam formula, you ensure the removal of both types of impurities, which isn’t guaranteed with a single cleanse.
Additionally, thorough cleansing readies the surface layers of your skin to absorb subsequent skincare products more effectively. Double cleansing optimizes your multi-step skincare routine by ensuring your complexion is primed to make the most of your serum, face mask, and moisturizer. It ensures you get the maximum benefits from every drop of your chosen products.
Q: Are there specific ingredients consumers should seek in order to achieve an effective double cleanse?
Dr. Mattone: When searching for skincare products, it’s crucial to prioritize clean label ingredients, such as plant-based oils that effectively dissolve oil-based impurities and are suitable for all skin types. Look for humectants to keep your skin hydrated during the cleansing process. Also, pay attention to antioxidants, potent botanicals, and fruit extracts that aid in gently removing dead skin cells, improving skin tone, and enhancing texture.
Q: Are there any drawbacks to incorporating a double cleansing routine?
Dr. Mattone: Some individuals may have concerns about double cleansing potentially stripping their skin or making it appear greasy, particularly if they have oily skin. However, when done correctly with the right formula, there are no downsides to double cleansing. Additionally, while some may find the extra packaging or additional step less convenient, these concerns can be easily addressed with a two-in-one formula like my recommended Modere CellProof Double Cleanser.
ONE FORMULA. TWO KINDS OF CLEAN.
“Unlike traditional cleansers, CellProof Double Cleaner can dissolve makeup while helping to balance and hydrate the skin. I also love that it’s designed for every skin type, so it takes the guess work out of picking the correct product. Not to mention it’s a two-step process in only one product; you just cannot achieve this level of clean with a regular cleanser. It’s a WIN-WIN!”
