How Does the Oil Cleansing Method Work?
Turn off the faucet for
a minute. Put your facial cleanser away. Instead, today, grab some oils and
slather them on your face. Massage them around. Let them lounge luxuriously.
Now, turn the faucet back on – very warm water. Dunk a washcloth in it and then
slowly wipe the oil off your face.
Guess what? Your face
is now as clean as it needs to be. It’s radiant. Gorgeous, dahling. You’ve
just used the oil cleansing method.
But how does
it work?
You know how your skin
– all of it – secretes oil? Even if your face feels dry, it still has oil on it.
Well, according to
chemistry know-how, like
dissolves like. So, effectively what you’re doing is dissolving
and wiping away all the icky dirty oil from your face and replenishing it with
clean, nourishing oil.
There’s no harsh
chemicals involved. No suds. Nothing to actually strip your skin of its oil.
And this is good,
because when you strip your skin of its sebum, it goes into overdrive, trying
to create more. Which leads to clogged pores. Blackheads. Whiteheads. Just
plain old irritation.
And that, in a very
brief and succinct nutshell, is how the oil cleansing method works.
How to Cleanse with Oil
To get the most out of your oil cleansing experience, you’ll want to follow
these directions pretty precisely. One of the most important things to
remember: Remove all of the cleansing oil when you’re done-or else you’ve
just added more oil on top of the dirty old oil you were trying to remove.
How to Cleanse Your Face with Oil
• Assemble what you need: You’re cleansing oil, a washcloth, and a
sink. Turn the water on and splash your face a few times.
• Remove the safety cap and pour out a quarter size amount of
cleaning oil in your palm.
• Massage this oil all over your face, in circles, moving upwards for
2-3 minutes. Make sure to cover all aspects of your face and under
your chin.
• Leave this oil on for 30 seconds to 1 minute. By now, you should
have pretty hot water coming out of your faucet.
• Wet the washcloth with the very warm water (as warm as your face
can stand without burning or discomfort) and apply the washcloth
to our whole face, letting the warm water soften the oils.
• Wipe your face clean with the washcloth (remember, get off all the
oil) by wiping and rinsing the washcloth several times.
• Splash your face once more with water and make sure your skin
neither oil nor too slippery. It should feel soft and supple with a
very moisturized texture, but not slick.
• Moisturize, if you feel it necessary. You may not, and that’s fine too.
