Following a double facial cleansing routine has become an essential step to remove all kinds of impurities that accumulate during the day. And it’s no wonder, as it has extra skincare benefits.

However, double cleansing does not mean ‘cleansing your face twice’, but rather using two different products that help to completely remove dirt and thus help prevent the appearance of blackheads or other dirt-related imperfections.

Although it may seem excessive, double facial cleansing ensures glowing, radiant-looking skin for everyone who does it. It is suitable for all skin types and is recommended in the morning and evening.

What is double cleansing?

As we have already mentioned, it is mainly based on using two cleaning products: one oil-based and the other water-based. In this way you will:

1. Prevent the accumulation of impurities.
2. Perfect the skin by reducing spots, redness and blackheads.
3. Increase skin tolerance while preserving hydration and elasticity.
4. Restore luminosity and vitality to the face.

Montibello’s Pure&Botanics offers you the best selection of cleansing products suitable for all skin types, even sensitive skin, and capable of instantly removing 100% of pollutants. And it is suitable for contact lens wearers.

Phase 1: oil-based cleansing

As a first step, we recommend using a cleansing oil, as it acts as a magnet to remove sebum, make-up and sunscreen that builds up in the pores. It also nourishes the skin, leaving it soft and silky smooth.

Silky Oil Cleanser is our oil-to-milk textured cleansing oil that effectively removes all accumulated impurities. With prebiotics and safflower oil.

How to use: apply and massage onto dry skin, moisten with water to form an emulsion and remove.

Eyes and lips

Don’t forget to remove eye and lip make-up with Biphasic Make-Up remover, a high-tolerance two-phase make-up remover that removes make-up, including waterproof make-up, from the eyes and lips with maximum gentleness and respect for the skin. With prebiotics and witch hazel extract.

How to use: shake and apply with a cotton pad in an outward motion to the eyelashes and/or lips.

Phase 2: water-based cleansing

The second step of the double facial cleansing consists of applying a water-based cleanser. The function is to remove water-based substances such as sweat or pollutant particles.

For all skin types, we recommend Revitalising Gel Cleanser, a gentle cleansing gel that removes impurities and protects the skin barrier. It works effectively on fatigued skin, restoring lost vitality and elasticity. With prebiotics and Ginseng extract.

How to use: wet hands, apply, massage gently and remove with water.

For normal to dry skin, Hydrating Milk-Mousse Cleanser, our transforming milk mousse that effectively removes cosmetic residue, pollution and dirt from the skin, protecting the skin barrier while maintaining moisture throughout the day. With prebiotics, hyaluronic acid and Verbena extract.

How to use: moisten hands, apply and massage onto skin, emulsify with water until foamy and remove.

For combination or oily skin, Detox Foam Cleanser is a gentle cleansing foam that removes impurities and protects the skin barrier. Its soft and easy-to-apply texture leaves the skin purified and with a pleasant sensation of comfort. With prebiotics and ginger extract.

How to use: apply, massage gently and remove with water.
