The art of a cleansing ritual

In the realm of skincare rituals, cleansing stands tall as the cornerstone of a healthy, radiant complexion. While it should be a regular part of your routine, it doesn’t have to be mundane. Your cleansing step can also become a deeply grounding and transformative experience that centres you in your body while paving the way for nourished, rejuvenated skin.

Let's delve into the significance of cleansing and explore the best ways to approach cleansing in order to meet every skin's unique needs.

The importance of cleansing

Cleansing isn't just about removing makeup or dirt; it's about nurturing your skin's health from within. Throughout the day, our skin encounters pollutants, excess oils and environmental aggressors that can clog pores and lead to dullness or breakouts. A proper cleansing regimen ensures that these impurities are gently lifted away, allowing your skin to breathe and absorb nourishing ingredients more effectively. It can also be an opportunity to be present and mindful, engage in facial massage and allow your nervous system to relax into your skincare ritual.

Exploring cleanser types

There are many different types of cleanser, each offering its own unique benefits. At Lacrème Beauté, we like a mixed approach, and always centre skin hydration and integrity, as well as prioritising deep purification. 

Milk Cleansers: Ideal for sensitive or dry skin, milk cleansers typically boast a luxurious, creamy texture that gently cleanses without stripping away natural oils, leaving the skin feeling soft and hydrated.

Foaming Cleansers: More often used for oily or combination skin, foaming cleansers create a lather that effectively removes excess oil and impurities, leaving the skin feeling refreshed and balanced. However, they can also strip the skin of its natural oils, which is why we prefer other cleanser types at Lacrème Beauté.

Oil and Balm Cleansers: We adore the indulgence of oil and balm cleansers, which effortlessly dissolve makeup and impurities while nourishing the skin with essential nutrients. These rich formulations are particularly beneficial for dry or mature skin, imparting a luminous glow with each cleanse. However, contrary to what you might think, they are also highly effective for oily or acne-prone skin, as they can help to balance out excess oils in the skin.

Mastering double cleansing

Enter the realm of double cleansing—a transformative ritual that will elevate your skincare routine to new heights. By combining the power of an oil or balm cleanser with a gentle milk cleanser, double cleansing ensures a thorough yet gentle purification process.

Begin with an oil or balm cleanser to dissolve makeup and impurities, while priming the skin with nourishment and hydration. This is an opportunity to massage the face, spending time working your cleanser into troublesome areas, and encouraging the blood and lymph to flow. Remove your oil or balm cleanser with a warm, soft washcloth before following with a milk or foaming cleanser to further purify the skin and reveal a truly radiant complexion. This can again be blended into the skin mindfully and enjoyably, remembering not to forget your neck and décolleté. This harmonious duo not only cleanses more thoroughly but also nourishes and keeps your skin barrier intact, leaving your skin feeling refreshed and revitalised.
