Here's how to incorporate the oil cleansing method into your skincare routine:
1. Begin by running hot water, as hot as you find comfortable, over your hands and face. This generates steam and opens your pores. Take a hot, wet washcloth and place it over your face for about 30 seconds.
2. Remove the washcloth and pour a couple of teaspoons of your chosen oil cleanser, such as a blend of castor oil and tamanu oil, into your palm. Massage the oils into your face using circular motions for approximately 2 minutes. Allow the cleanser to remain on your skin for an additional 30 seconds.
3. While the cleanser sits on your skin, wet the washcloth again with very hot water and place it over your face for 10-20 seconds. This helps to further soften the impurities.
4. Rinse the washcloth and gently begin rubbing off the oil from your skin. Repeat this step at least 3 times, ensuring that all the oil cleanser is thoroughly removed.
5. Allow your skin to return to its natural temperature. Some individuals follow with a toner and moisturizer, but this step is optional. Adding additional products may reintroduce elements that can clog your pores. Oil cleansing can be performed as frequently as needed. Some people prefer to do it a few times a week, while others do it daily. It naturally removes makeup and mascara, making it an excellent choice for evening cleansing.
Troubleshooting:
- Give your skin time to adjust to the new routine. It's normal for your skin to go through phases of overcompensation towards dryness or oiliness during the first week.
- Avoid using soap cleansers, as they can disrupt your skin's moisture balance.
- If a particular oil blend doesn't work for you, try a different one. Everyone's skin is unique, so experiment with our different oils and formulations, as well as frequencies until you find what suits you best.
- Rinse your skin thoroughly to ensure all cleansing product is removed. Some users may mistake leftover product for excessive oil production.
Embrace the all-natural benefits of the oil cleansing method and enjoy a refreshed and balanced complexion. Happy cleansing!
