Double Cleansing: Everything You Need To Know

I can’t imagine not double cleansing- it really gets my skin clean! For myself- it’s hada Labo cleansing oil and hydrating cerave cleanser.

[@NancyH25]

I do this as well, but I’ve noticed I’m getting some closed comedones & black heads on my cheeks. Idk if it’s caused from the cleansing oil or not, but I read several Amazon reviews saying they experienced the same problem. Thoughts, Dr. Dray? I appreciate your feedback.

Love your videos! Would you consider making a series for basic skincare first aid? Wound care that we should all know, what to do when we get a cut, or burn our fingers cooking, bruise ourselves. Of course (hopefully), most people will assess themselves and seek medical attention if needed, but in the meantime or during recovery, would love a video for helping with these smaller everyday traumas to the skin!

[@julesxandy]

I'm prone to stys and my optometrist gave me the advice that after using an oil cleanser, to make sure to use a gentle cleanser along my eyelash area to ensure all the oil is gone and won't clog my glands.

[@NatalieG427]

If you used Purity Made Simple Cleanser by Philosophy, you wouldn’t need to use an oil cleanser at all. That cleanser removes waterproof makeup, even mascara. You only need about a dime size of it. It foams up & cleans really well. No double cleanse needed. It also comes in smaller bottles for people to try.

[@KimA206]

⁠@@NatalieG427I use Purity and have almost for 20 years. I am a product junky but I have never used anything else but Purity. I know it’s not for everyone but I love it. It does take all the make up off. I will still sometimes double cleanse with it. Depending on how heavy my makeup is. First to take off the makeup and second to cleanse. I do not have dry skin, especially since using Gold Bond Nighttime Retinol after cleansing. So far it’s worked for this nearly 60 year old skin.

[@inainoslo]

@@Novemberrain111 it’s only harsh if you have very sensitive skin. It’s just a second wash essentially because the first gets the makeup off so actually it’s not even a cleanse. It just melts the makeup off so no harsh rubbing there.

[@Siberius-]

Dr Dray mixed up which product was thicker between the Kose Speedy and the Hada Labo at 11:23. She said the Hada Labo is thicker, but in an older video of hers (at 13:15), she says that the Kose one is thicker and in that video she puts them both on her hands and shows it. The video is called: Vlog: COMPARING CLEANSING OILS ✨ POOL CHAT👙 CAR WASH 🚙 Now, thicker cleansing oils I thinkkkk work better for sebaceous filaments. The Kose Speedy (pink) rinse off the skin very easily, but the Kose DEEP, is much thicker, and it will rinse off the skin particularly if you have a shower helping out, but it's harder to remove. Double cleansing will easily get it off though. The deep version is great for my sebaceous filaments. Really awesome stuff. Just gotta massage it (from the start) for about 3 minutes (with dry skin) to really let it do it's thing. Takes time.

[@pamcanfield255]

I do a double cleanse every night using Pond's Cold Cream. It's inexpensive & effective. I follow it up with a gentle cleanser like Cetaphil.

Before I started double cleansing, I would always find traces of makeup left over on my towel after I used my facial cleanser. Eye make up as well as face makeup. Now my skin is left clean and soft with the Skin Barrier still intact due to the gentle nature of the oil cleanse. Thank you Andrea!

My order was in California (about four hours from where I live) for two months before it arrived. It seemed like it was lost and every time I contacted their customer service, they would only respond with the tracking information. Even when asking for a refund, I would get the same response. It eventually arrived, but I just hope all the sunscreens I ordered weren’t sitting somewhere hot over those two months. 😕

[@21972012145525]

I’m having a similar issue with gentle cleansers in the shower. Currently using neutrogena creamy gentle cleanser and because it doesn’t foam up, I’m constantly rubbing it and probably using too much-defeating the purpose entirely 😅

[@monicaant.1422]

I use Kose and it's oily and for me I just use warm water and I don't have to scrub hard to take out the oiliness and I will definitely look at good molecules

[@KevkevDisG]

the kose speedy or regular oil cleanser and the shiseido perfect whip face wash have been my go-to combo for so many years. whether i'm just wearing sunscreen or a full face of makeup, the combo always gets rid of everything without any residue. I've tried micellar water and cleansing balms, but nothing compares to oil cleansers when it comes to cost and ease of use. I wash my face at night in the shower so I never worry about getting the oil all over my bathroom floor 😊

[@Jomoscho]

Purito has a great cleansing oil. Works well on mascara and leaves no film. Makes skin feel soft to me.

[@emkn1479]

Double cleansing has made the biggest difference to the health of my skin. Makes so much sense…oil (attracts and) removes oil. I’ve heard it’s a good idea to massage the oil/balm for a minute or more. Thoughts?

[@ToyCircle]

It's definitely a good idea because the oil cleanser doesn't really strip the skin. I oil cleanse every day at night. And I can promise you I go way past a minute, heck, it's more like 10 or 15 minutes bcs I just get carried away, relaxed and love it when those nasty oil plugs come out of my skin 😂. Just make sure you're properly emulsifying that cleansing oil and washing in off, then use a good, non stripping water based cleanser next.

[@bb4251]

u can do up to 5 minutes if ur skin can handle it. i just do 2-3 minutes everyday bc that's enough for my skin. don't oil cleanse for too long if u have sensitive skin though - i once went 20 minutes in and it dried my skin out lol

[@whatnext715]

For me-Bioderma or Simple Micellar water, then Neutrogena ultra gentle cleanser or Cetaphil gentle skin cleanser (whichever is cheapest at the drugstore). It’s been years since I tried another cleanser. I’ve been curious about an oil cleanser, esp in the winter. The only one I tried years ago was dhc and it was not good for my skin. I may try dr dray’s recc of the Kose oil. The idea of giving myself a little massage with the oil at the end of the day is appealing.

[@Tammyiing]

Ever since I discovered oil cleansing, it had completely changed my skin. I have oily acne prone skin and used to think oil cleansing would just make my oiliness worse but I was wrong, if anything I’m less oily now and don’t break out as often. My favorite has always been the Sioris cleansing oil but a recent favorite has been the Softymo one too

[@aabish108]

Oil cleanser/ cleansing balm/ micellar water which one is gud for double cleansing for oily acne prone skin?

[@Tammyiing]

@@aabish108 Personally I prefer cleansing oils. I find that most micellar waters either leave a film on my skin afterwards or require a lot of friction and that just irritates my skin. And for me, cleansing balms require a little more work to melt and can get very messy if you don’t scoop out enough. In my opinion, the best cleansing oils are the ones that are very watery, almost to the point where it doesn’t look like an oil, because it’ll spread and wash off easier. I find that a light massage around the nose and cheek area is enough to unclog sebaceous filaments and that helps prevent whiteheads and blind pimples

If you want something unscented, Haruharu Wonder has its own cleansing oil too. They are both of excellent quality, they contain no mineral oil are so soothing.

[@alya27092]

I am using micellar water followed by cleanser (both very gentle and fragrance free) and my face is super clean after. I wear make up almost every day and my sunscreen is not water resistant. My skin is sensitive, prone to break out very fast if there are oils (most of them), essential oils, any ingredient that contains in the name: olivate, oleate, mystrate, isostearate and other few. I discovered this after about an year of trial and error in order to build a skincare routine. Was even harder to find a sunscreen suitable for my “special” skin. So is good that the rest of the world can use a cleansing oil/balm and I’m happy that some brands sell micellar water and it’s all for me. 😁 Every time I hear or read “room temperature” I’m wondering what this means. I saw reviews about beauty fridges and people said that is not necessary because you can keep all skincare and/or some medicine at room temperature. I live in Australia in a two storey house where summer can be very hot (48 degrees celsius) and even indoor temperature is quite high. I have AC but I also have a job and I use AC in the evening when I come back from work and in weekends I go out. So during the summer and even spring (now is spring here and we had few days with 38 degrees celsius) most of the time “room temperature” is over 30 degrees celsius upstairs. But I’m sure if you live in Siberia room temperature should be fine and you don’t need a beauty fridge. 🙂

Went to order. Had to go through the process twice because of some glitch. On the second attempt, they did not offer the free shipping order that I saw the first time. I left the site without ordering. The pop ups drove me a bit crazy, too.

I love double cleansing, my skin has improved a lot since I started a few years ago. I only use cleansing oils, they work better for my dry skin then cleansing balms do. I really enjoy the Bioderma Atoderm Cleansing Oil. Does have a light scent but works well for my dry skin. I even use it as a morning cleanser sometimes.

I love Korean balm/oil cleansers. It’s all I use now. I’d just placed a new order with stylvanna a week ago. They are really slow to deliver to Australia, but I just plan my orders around that now

Fantastic video. I’m a big fan of DHC oil and I’m just starting to explore cleansing balms. Thank you!

[@thanosfield2642]

I can only imagine the pleasant sensation of an oil-based cleanser because I still haven't used one yet, but in time I shall, and I'm sure that my current-based opinion on that matter will be 100 percent positive. I can't wait to try my first oil-based cleanser, and of course I totally agree with the double cleanse both on the scalp and the face. Thank you, Dr.Andrea for informing us about the benefits and the great importance of a double cleanse and possibly incorporating it into our everyday skincare routine 😊❤😍.

I love cleansing oils and balms. You named some of my faves!! I like the Yam Root cleanser more as a morning cleanser bc it is so gentle.

[@alexandrelowfi]

Softymo Speedy Cleansing pink one burns my eyes I prefer the yellow called Deep because it doesn't burn my eyes. As for DHC, my skin can't tolerate it possibly due to the olive oil which may not be esterified (I can't read the ingredients in Japanese). My skin itches and I get folliculitis afterwards.

[@iidasyv]

I’ve tried a few cleansing balms and oils, including BoJ cleansing balm. Unfortunately, they all sting my eyes and are kind of too harsh. I’ve found that what works best for my sensitive skin is using a cleansing lotion or milk first, like avene extremely gentle cleanser or cow brand non additive cleansing milk, and then a gentle cleansing cream or gel, like cerave hydrating cleanser or Bioderma sensibio cleansing gel.

[@NatalieG427]

I find my go to 1 step cleanser, is the Purity Made Simple Cleanser by Philosophy. It’s a gentle gel cleanser that you need about a dime size of & it removes waterproof mascara and makeup without stinging your eyes, iF anything were stinging your eyes it might be the melted makeup & not the cleanser itself. But I’ve been using this for over 25 years now & it’s the best cleanser to clean the pores. I sometimes use it with my Clarisonic Brush. 😉

[@Idk-do4db]

Try the g&g cleansing balm. Love it. No reaction. The boj irritated my skin so much.

[@dp1202]

So interesting, I just use olive oil and thats it. I don’t buy anything special. I use it as the first step and to remove my makeup too. Works like a charm.

[@ImShireen]

Can I use it for my acne prone skin as well ?

[@flowersafeheart]

I bought the Radiance Cleansing Balm based on this review. It feels great, but it doesn't remove waterproof makeup. Can you recommend one that would for a seventy-year-old with very sensitive eyes and thin, dry, sensitive skin? Thank you, Sally

[@olgaburia7556]

I have combination skin with VERY stubborn sebaceous filaments and none of rather aggressive cleansers and peelings with all sorts of acids could deal with them. With double cleansing, using some basic mild products, my skin is really clean now and my pores never looked as good before!

[@7thCobweb]

i want to do double cleansing bc i like the process (it is satisfying), however i think it is not good for my skin barrier. since i stopped double cleansing and applying vaseline every evening over my skin care, my breakouts stopped. sounds odd, but i'm lowkey jealous about those who can double cleanse hehe

[@ZerrinTemiz]

I have been using Beauty of Joseon radiance cleansing balm. I am sensitive, dry to combination, acne-prone skin. First use - it gave me whitehead on forehead. After a couple of use it gave me red spots. I don't know if anyone experienced this. Plus, I am not applying makeup, I am only using Beauty of Joseon sunscreen daily, I know it's not water-resistant sunscreen, do I still need to double-cleanse my skin every day?

[@lifeofash425]

i am loving the Cereve oil cleanser. If I'm using any water proof make up like eyeliner or mascara, I will triple cleanser but I go in first with the Clinique cleansing balm. I can never use cleansing wipes as they do irritate my skin.

I’ve been using DHC Cleansing Oil for over 20 years and it’s been my ride or die. I started using it when my skin was still oily and it never caused me any problems. Now my skin is normal/dry/sensitive due to aging and I still love it. When I was in my teens, my skin was so grossly oily that 5 minutes after washing my face with the harshest of cleansers, the greasy slick was already showing. I stripped the crap out of my skin with Sea Breeze, Ten O Six, and sometimes straight alcohol. I wanted the oil GONE, but it never relented. But now, at almost 70, I’m grateful for it. I have minimal wrinkles. Living outside Houston with the high humidity (hate it) also helps. But now, aging sensitive skin causes some problems. Cetaphil and Cerave hydrating cleansers are too harsh and cause stinging and dryness. Instead of throwing them out, I use them to wash my hands. It could be the Niacinamide since I can’t wear my used to be ride or die eltaMD UV Clear anymore either. It causes a red hot rash. The only makeup I use, only when I have to, is the IT Bye Bye Moisturizer. I may have to try the last balm you mentioned and the Hadalabo oil. I never liked the Farmacy balm since it never removed all of my makeup like the DHC did, and it left such a greasy film behind that I would have to double cleanse. Unfortunately, the double cleansing was too hard on my skin.

[@cheapmisfit3894]

I prefer balms. I'm messy and find them easier to use to remove makeup. Elf's version is great, but most balms I've tried work well.

I use Cereve Hydrating cleanser and just use it twice - one wiped away with a cotton pad, then a second to go over it. It likely isn't enough, and I can definitely tell if I ever use a physical sunscreen, but I absolutely refuse to use harsh cleansers, micellar water, or oil balms which leave a horrible greasy film behind. I'd end up using 3-4 washes just to get the rest of an oil cleanser off, I can't believe anyone recommends them.
