Tips For Washing your face
Washing your face is far from rocket science but there is a good and bad way of doing it. Follow our simple steps to get your face cleaner and clearer then ever before!
- Wash your hands properly first. Your hands need to be clean in order to get your face clean!
- Start with warm water, which will open your pores and let more of the dirt, bacteria and oil out. Splash your face with warm water.
- Once your face is thoroughly wet, add soap. Use one that best caters to your skin type.
- Wash each section of your face for a few seconds. You should aim to wash your face for at least 45 seconds. That's how long it takes to clear the gunk out.
- If you dry your face with a towel, make sure it's clean. A dirty towel, even slightly, will undo all good you've done by washing your face.
