Many women neglect one of the stages of purification: someone just washed with running water, others, on the contrary, can not stand washing, preferring only cosmetic make-up. All are wrong. Cleansing should consist of three stages, - cosmetologists are convinced. Japanese women face the problem of wrinkles for about 60 years. Before that, their age can be determined only by nasolabial folds. And this despite the fact that they resort to professional care much less often than their peers from Europe and America. The secret of youth is in the right cleansing, which the Japanese make a real ritual. The procedure lasts at least 20 minutes (according to statistics, Americans spend no more than 2-3 minutes on make-up remedies, and Russians - 4-6 minutes) and consists of three or more stages. Cosmetologists addicted support the Japanese, confirming that thorough cleansing is the first step in the struggle for youth and radiance of the skin. The magic recipe for skin cleansing is the sense of it!

Makeup Remover

This is a daily evening removal of makeup, mixed with the secret of sebaceous and sweat glands. Cosmetic milk is intended for cleansing dry skin with an intact lipid barrier and for age skin. Cream is designed for even more dry skin with a damaged lipid barrier, with peeling and stiffening. The gel is addressed to the owners of oily skin. Liquid for removing make-up (in fact - diluted with water gel) - for normal, dry and sensitive skin and for the eyelids. The oil is used for eye make-up and it fits even the most irritated skin. The procedure for make-up should be performed daily, immediately after feeling discomfort on the face from the make-up.

Washing

Removes the remains of make-up and cosmetics. Dermatologists insist on this procedure. Turn it into cosmetic care, even if you are accustomed to applying only cream after milk. Liquid soap - for oily porous skin, prone to various eruptions. Foaming gel - suitable for all skin types. Cosmetic foam or mousse is the most versatile product: it does not cause irritation, does not dry the skin and is suitable for use after various professional cosmetic procedures. For example, after peeling and laser resurfacing. After washing, be sure to wipe the skin with a tonic: it restores the skin pH and serves as a "guide" for subsequent care products.

Stop signal

Cosmeticians even with a lone pimple do not recommend to crack down on their own. What can we say about such a procedure as cleaning is incorrectly done, it can lead to skin trauma and the spread of already existing inflammations. Especially at home only the most crude method is available to us - manual cleaning.

Deep Cleansing

Even the most expensive cream will not save you from wrinkles and a dull complexion, if you do not regularly exfoliate your skin. Begin the procedure of cleansing with low-intensity, gentle means. Gradually increase its "rigidity", guided by the skin reaction to the procedure. Scrubs - for oily, rough skin, not more often than once a week. As abrasive substances they use polystyrene, polyethylene or crushed fruit bones. Preferably scrubs with polyethylene or polystyrene. Gommages are very delicate and soft, they include natural aroma oils. Apply gommage by finger pads and gently massage the skin with a brush or sponge. The effect of this kind of exfoliation is not inferior to scrub, but even a thin or very sensitive skin will not be injured and does not turn red. Peelings with enzymes - the most mild and not traumatic method of purification. As a rule, the composition of enzyme products includes natural plant extracts and antioxidants.
