When should I remove my makeup?
Morning makeup removal is a cleansing ritual to eliminate toxins from the skin. Conversely, evening makeup removal is a deep facial cleansing. A ritual to maintain beautiful skin for a long time.
How to clean your skin when you wake up?
In the morning, your skin requires a gentle and refreshing cleanse. During the night, your skin produces sebum, and certain impurities, such as dust, can also lodge there. That's why it's important to cleanse your skin in the morning to smooth out wrinkles and ensure the effectiveness of your daytime facial care.
For an instant boost of radiance and freshness, apply our Toning Lotion upon waking. If your skin is combination to oily, opt for the Purifying Water Gray Paste. This fresh lotion, with Chilean mint extracts and salicylic acid, cleanses and eliminates excess sebum while mattifying your skin thanks to its absorbent zinc powders.
For those who prefer water-based cleansing, immerse your skin in the creamy lather of our Micellar Cleansing Foam. Its soap-free formula guarantees gentle cleansing and an exceptionally fresh feeling.
In the evening, focus on a deep cleanse
Throughout the day, your skin accumulates a lot of impurities and requires deep cleansing. Skin that isn't spotlessly clean every night can cause you a lot of harm, and even if you feel lazy when you get home from work, don't give up, or you might feel guilty about it.
Step 1: Makeup removal
First, you'll need to remove your makeup. If it's not removed or only partially removed, it will quickly cause imperfections to appear and leave you with a dull complexion when you wake up. Additionally, your nighttime skincare won't absorb as well as it should, significantly reducing its effectiveness.
Start by removing eye makeup with the Bi-Phase Eye and Lip Makeup Remover. Thanks to its two-phase formula combining an oil and a lotion texture, it easily and gently removes all traces of eye and lip makeup, including long-lasting and waterproof formulas. Keeping mascara on your eyes all night greatly sensitizes your eyelashes, which become thinner and will eventually fall out over time. So, for pretty doe eyes, don't skip this step.
Next, move on to your complexion and choose from the many textures of PAYOT makeup removers. Micellar water, oil, milk, or cream, you're spoiled for choice! Choose according to your skin type. For combination to oily skin, opt for watery and refreshing textures. For dry or sensitive skin, opt for creamy textures.
Step 2: Cleaning
Double cleansing is not always essential, especially for sensitive skin that can become irritated.
However, anyone living in an urban environment is advised to cleanse with water after removing makeup. This is due to toxic particles released by environmental pollution, which are particularly stubborn once lodged in the pores of the skin. If not properly removed on a daily basis, they cause premature skin aging, dulling of the complexion, and the appearance of imperfections.
The same goes for people who use facial skincare and makeup containing SPF to combat sun damage. While very useful during the day, it's essential to remove them before bedtime. These can clog pores and also cause blemishes.
To get rid of all these impurities, rely on cleansing with water. For combination to oily skin, use D'Tox Cleansing Gel. Upon contact with water, this facial cleansing gel transforms into a rich cleansing foam to intensely cleanse combination to oily skin, prone to shine and imperfections. For normal to dry skin, opt instead for the gentleness of our Micellar Cleansing Foam.
Your face is finally ready to receive all the benefits of your night care!
The little extra: To rebalance the skin's pH and eliminate limescale from tap water that could irritate your skin, lotion your skin after each cleansing with water.
