Facial cleansing, which is the first stage of skin care, is the process of cleansing the skin from dirt and residue accumulated on the skin surface throughout the day. Even if you do not wear makeup, your skin is exposed to environmental effects such as sweat, particles in the air and dust during the day. In addition, sebum, which is the secretion produced by the sebaceous glands, which is produced during the day in the skin's natural functioning, forms a layer. In addition, sunscreens, cosmetics, makeup materials and dead skin are other factors that form a layer on the skin throughout the day. If you do not cleanse this accumulated dirt and excess sebum with a good facial cleansing, the pores will clog over time and your skin quality will gradually deteriorate.
Environmental, cosmetic and skin-produced oil-like factors that cause skin dirt cannot be completely removed from your skin with a single-stage cleansing. Some of these effects are dissolved with oil-based cleansers, some with water-based cleansers. For example, if you want to remove water-resistant makeup from your skin with only a water-based cleansing, you will not get an effective result. In such cases, the right face and makeup cleaning methods are carried out in two stages.
What is Dual-Stage Skin Cleansing? What Does It Do?
The first step for a two-stage skin cleansing is to cleanse the skin of oil, makeup and dirt residues with a facial cleansing oil. An oil-based cleanser suitable for your skin type will dissolve and cleanse the excess oil produced by the sebaceous glands during the day. The second step of the facial cleansing routine is done with foam and water. In the second step, you can choose natural soaps suitable for your skin type to both cleanse the skin of remaining dirt and maintain the skin's pH balance. The advantages of a two-stage facial cleansing are as follows:
- It cleans the skin deeply and prevents any residue from remaining.
- It removes products such as water-resistant make-up and sunscreen without damaging your skin in any way.
- When the skin is completely cleansed, the pores open and your skin can breathe.
- Blood circulation and oxygen levels increase in breathing skin. As a result, the regeneration of subcutaneous tissues becomes faster.
- Skin problems such as blackheads, acne, dullness and blemishes are reduced when the skin is better purified from residues.
- It helps skin care products such as toner, serum and moisturizer to be better absorbed by the skin.
- Constantly clean and breathing skin maintains collagen production and moisture balance.
How to Cleanse Your Skin with Oil?
Does cleaning oily skin with oil make your skin oily? Since oil is a substance that dissolves in oil, not water, an oil-based cleanser will not make your skin oilier, but you should pay attention to choosing a product that is suitable for your skin type. In order to get effective results in the first stage of the two-stage cleansing, which is oil cleansing, it is important to apply it correctly. You should apply the recommended amount of facial cleansing oil. When using oil-based products, your skin and hands should be dry. Clean your skin with the appropriate amount of oil-based cleanser in your hand using circular movements. In this way, you can cleanse your skin of oily dirt and makeup while also speeding up blood circulation by gently massaging your face.
Complete the oil cleansing by removing the product from your skin with a warm, damp cotton cloth or towel. Make sure that the cloths you use are made of 100% cotton fabric.

Complete Your Facial Cleansing with Soap-Based Cleansing
The dirt that does not dissolve with oil on the skin surface is deeply cleaned with water and foam. Natural soaps help you get rid of the residues brought by the day without damaging your skin. You can apply the foam of the soap that you have foamed with water in your hand to your slightly damp skin with circular movements and rinse with plenty of water. Since soap is a substance that is rinsed immediately and easily cleaned with water, its effect on the skin remains for a short time. Therefore, it does not have an effect that disrupts the pH balance of the skin. If you choose a suitable soap for your skin and rinse it thoroughly, soap-based cleansing will not dry your skin. After the two-stage cleansing ritual, you can complete your daily skin care with a suitable toner and moisturizer.
Your product choices are as important for your skin health as using the right facial cleansing methods.
