I started double cleansing last year and it has been a game changer for my skin. It drastically improved my skin tone and texture. I only double cleanse at night at the end of the day. I work as a nurse and double cleansing makes sure I get rid of all accumulated dirt/sweat. I am fully committed to my Korean skin care routine and recommend Pyungkang Yul cleansing oil or the Axis Y Moringa cleansing oil. I follow that with Klairs Gentle Black Foam Cleanser. ❤

I got into skincare pretty heavily at the start of the pandemic, as did a lot of people. Double cleansing is one of my favorite things. I finally added tretinoin to my routine about 3 months ago. At 54, my skin looks phenomenal and the best it ever has in my lifetime. Just a few weeks ago, I met a woman a couple years older than me who asked how old I was how old I am. When I told her she was stunned. She thought I was a decade younger. I'll take it! Keep up the amazing videos, I've learned so much from the two of you over the years. ❤

Evening: double cleanse, copper peptides, wait about 15 minutes, then tretinoin and heavier moisturizer. I really only have one item that I can't live without, and that's Sunday Riley lactic acid. It really smoothed out the bumps in my skin. I use it daily without any irritation. I use a chemical exfoliant mask about once a week in the evening and skip the tretinoin that night.

For smooth glowing skin: 1 - Staying hydrated is key. It helps. Try to consume at least 2 liters water every day. 2 - Using riceeberry face wash from litleextra daily is part of my routine. Although I occasionally skip this step due to impatience. While it works, daily application is crucial for results. 3 - I avoid any kind of soap etc. 4 - I stay away from junk food. 5 - I do 30 minutes of exercise everyday. Together, all these steps helped me to get good glowing skin without any acne, dark spots and pimples.

[@sabina2628]

I used to have clear skin. However, lately, I began experiencing acne breakouts. I didn't know that the harsh face wash I used was actually drying up my skin. Once I switched it to this gentle cleanser and used a moisturising cream with it, all my breakouts stopped. Thanks Litttleextra ricebeerry.

[@derrviel]

The key is to do all of these consistently for 6 months at least and NEVER stopping once u get the results. I got the perfect glass skin following these things and so much more (ie no alcohol, sunscreen, raw veggie smoothies every morning, 7 hours of sleep) until I slowly started eating those junk food again and all of it is gone now 😂I still do every single thing here and don't even eat a lot of junk food - just fried food and sweet treats 3-4x a week.

Idk if the doctors mentioned this, but some oils with an abundance of/combination of certain fatty acids can feed a fungus called malassezia, which in normal amounts is fine and found on the body naturally, but off balance can cause fungal acne (looks like small bumps everywhere). I don’t have fungal acne but I do get seborrheic dermatitis sometimes which is also caused by malassezia so I have to be careful which oils I use to double cleanse.

[@SweetCarolineEliza]

I started using an oil cleanser recently and immediately fell in love with it! I have comedonal acne and oily skin, so I was always scared to use any oil on my face, even though it made sense that only an oil could dissolve the oil in my pores. I decided to give it a try and it has really helped remove sunscreen, makeup, and oil buildup in my pores. It rinses away effortlessly with water and doesn’t leave any greasy residue, so I’ve found that I don’t necessarily need to do a second cleanse afterwards. I’ve been using it a couple times a week and can’t imagine being without it now. So all that to say: if you have oily skin and/or comedonal acne, it might be worth giving an oil cleanser a try. You might be pleasantly surprised!

I also have used hair conditioner to cleanse and remove makeup for 20 yrs. I even use hair conditioner(V05) in place of bodywash in coldest darkest driest winter. Yes, it cleans sweat and generic ick but it doesn't strip the skin to do it so you can shower and not be itchy afterwards.

It's *slightly* less effective than the Dermalogica, but 1. goes on sale more often and 2. avoids the hassle with my contacts. I follow either up with my normal cleanser. I exfoliate with Dermalogica microfoliant (usually evening unless I'm going makeup-less on the weekends) or Clinique exfoliating lotion/toner. Followed up by moisturizing products depending on makeup wearing & skin condition (level of break outs, or dryness).

Good info, always enjoy your content!

In Japan and Korea there's another category of "first step" cleansers which are cleansing creams/lotions. I find them less stripping than cleansing balms/oils because they are kind of somewhere in between straight-up lipophilic and straight-up hydrophilic.

Double cleansing works for me but I’m milia prone and I do need to be careful. I love Anua’s pore control in no small part because of its scent. It is light and incredibly pleasant, and makes me feel like getting a professional spa facial😊

[@SMRBI]

I, too am milia prone so I'm hesitant to use an oil or balm on my face.

Great video. But I was wondering if I can just use a cleansing oil or balm and that’s all? I use sunscreen way more than makeup.

I have seborrheic dermatitis, I've been doing double cleansing for years Oil based cleanser+ foaming cleanser and to tell you my skin always flares up but I keep on doing it because I didn't know it's also causing rashes. Then I tried Micellar water+foaming cleanser earlier this year and itnwas the best decision no more flares up & rashes. It really depends on your skin type.

[@debutchi]

look into simpleskincarescience ‘s blog post on seb derm safe skin products, most oil feed the yeast, the only that don’t are squalane and mct oil

[@AliceVanIsa]

I need to try this but I don't get it, isn't micellar water, water based ? And foaming cleanser also ? So two waterbased works as well ?

[@daraxxipark9766]

@@AliceVanIsa for me it really works. What I've been using is the Garnier Micellar water followed by B Lab Matcha Hydrating Cleanser. I was really amazed how my skin looks like after. No dermatologist ever told me about that. Twice a year I need to visit my dermatologist to treat my seb derm with steroids but I can definitely say I can control it now. If you are suffering from Seb Derm like me I hope it will also works for you. Avoiding oils at all cost even in cleansers.

[@npossas01]

Elemis cleansing balm is the best for double cleanse and CeraVe Cleansing Oil (really more of a gel) for one and done.

[@debutchi]

I want to encourage anyone watching who struggles with seborrheic dermatitis and fungal acne to be very careful as to the types of cleansers they use If you are looking to double cleanse look into oil cleansers that are pure squalane or mct oil, most other oils feed the yeast A specific brand that has worked for me is malezia, it was made by someone who struggles with seb derm themselves so he was very particular about the types on ingredients in his products

[@MarlinaFlores-h9g]

thank you for this epi as an esthetician, i double cleanse at night when ive worn makeup and sunscreen during the day and it helps. My derm disagrees but i still do it but only occasionally

[@SteamyPMcGee]

Body Shop Chamomile Cleansing Balm is the best i used so far, its unbeatable at getting off my waterproof mascara.

[@Cyanide_Mallika]

Double cleanse daily is way too harsh on my sensetive skin. Once a week is great tho for removing oil plugs and dead skin

DHC is my go-to oil cleanser. If you’re exploring Korean skincare, Ariul’s micellar water is great!

I think these videos are important because it helps people to look at any study, be it in medicine to economics, with a more critical lens. Also I love double cleansing, I started doing it because it just felt nice but my skin feels so glowy

I use a milk cleanser for my first cleanse (I don’t wear makeup, just sunscreen). Switching from an oil cleanser to a milk cleanser was a lot less drying for my skin & I definitely recommend for those looking for a gentler option. Currently I use the Isntree Yam Root Milk Cleanser, it’s great

[@ScurvyRascal]

Thank you for sharing the product you use!!! I only use sunscreen too and have been using cerave but it's still very drying! Can I ask what your second cleanser is, please?

[@elizabethonstage]

I double cleanse daily- no matter WHAT. And I do NOT wear makeup at all- I just wear my Beauty of Joseon SPF which is chemical and lightweight. And I must say- my skin totally changed after incorporating the daily cleanse into my nightly routine. I do NOT get the blackheads/sebaceous filaments around my nose anymore, and my skin has never felt SO SOFT. Krave UNWINED cleansing oil is what I use. GET IT AND YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT ❤ ^ I have very sensitive rosacea prone skin, and this is my holy grail. I hope this helps someone out there! 💗

[@sdl2320]

Thanks! What do you use for cleanser?

[@elizabethonstage]

@@sdl2320 I use Peach Slices Redness Relief cleanser for a gentler cleanser in the AM and I use the Youth to the People Kale Cleanser as my 2nd cleanser at night! It gives a more thorough clean than the Peach Slices, and is very expensive, so I like to only use it at night and use the more cost effective and gentler cleanser in the morning when I’m not double cleansing ♥️

[@Mighty.Matcha.]

@@sdl2320I want to know too, I use Haru haru oil and Anua cleansing oil btw

[@understone86]

Before cleansing balms and oils and micellar water, we used cold cream or cleansing milk for removing makeup. These were effective and gentle products and still they were much cheaper. With cleansing milk there is much less residue left after cleansing and -the oil in water emulsion- leaves the skin refreshed hydrated and clean. Never needed a double cleansing.

Allantoin

[@KevkevDisG]

I've been double cleansing for 10 years and I cannot live without it. Cleansing oil is my favorite thing to use because it's very affordable, lasts a long time, and is super effective at removing sunscreen and makeup. For me, micellar water irritates my eyes and cleansing balms are hard to control in regards to how much product you use, so cleansing oils make the most sense to me. Hada Labo and the kose regular and/or speedy ones have been my favorites over the years. Currently I've been trying the Elizavecca olive oil one and it looks like it'll be another one I recommend and will probably repurchase. I have oily skin, so I love a good lather, and the shiseido perfect whip cleanser makes a great thick lather that washes away the oil and makeup residue

I used to not wearing sunscreen at all until I get 25. I started to use skincare when I was 23. It was a journey. I had very bad acne prone skin with my abnormal hormone. When I was 23, I tried with Peach and Lily’s kit and it made my skin perfect for a while, until I get older. Now that I’m 26, the period of developing wrinkles (26-40) and skin cancer, I started using sunscreen of Cerave’s. I somehow forget to use AHA/BHA mask which I used to use every single week in my routine for months. I started to developed some tiny bumps and enlarged pores that I used to have acne prone on my cheeks. I’ll try double cleanse this and see how it goes!

En mí experiencia personal, llevo un mes usando la doble limpieza de Anua, tengo una piel mixta con tendencia al acné en especial zona T, y lo que puedo decir es que me ha funcionado de manera increíble, me ha disminuido puntos negros y grasa. Importante mencionar que la primera semana me brotó acné, el cual para la segunda semana se empezó a quitar y dejar una piel limpia y luminosa .
