At Transcendence Skin, we believe that skincare is more than just a routine—it’s a ritual, a moment of self-care that sets the foundation for a healthy, glowing complexion. And if there’s one essential step you should never skip at night, it’s double cleansing.
Why Double Cleansing Matters
Throughout the day, your skin is exposed to a buildup of pollutants, sunscreen, makeup, excess oil, and bacteria. A single cleanse isn’t enough to fully remove these impurities, and anything left behind can clog pores, contribute to breakouts, and accelerate premature aging. Double cleansing ensures that your skin is truly clean, allowing your serums and treatments to work more effectively while keeping your complexion balanced and clear.
The Two-Step Process
First Cleanse: Oil-Based CleanserStart with an oil cleanser or a balm to dissolve makeup, SPF, and sebum. Oil attracts oil, making this step highly effective in breaking down stubborn impurities without stripping your skin’s natural moisture barrier. At Transcendence Skin, we favor nourishing, non-comedogenic oils like jojoba oil, which closely mimics the skin’s own sebum and is ideal for all skin types—even acne-prone skin.
Second Cleanse: Gentle Gel or Cream Cleanser
Follow with a water-based cleanser to remove any remaining residue and deeply cleanse your pores. If you have sensitive or acne-prone skin, opt for a gentle gel cleanser with soothing, pH-balanced ingredients to avoid disrupting your skin barrier. This step ensures a fresh, purified canvas ready to absorb your nighttime treatments.
Who Should Double Cleanse?
Double cleansing is beneficial for all skin types, but it’s especially crucial if you:
Wear sunscreen daily (which you should!)
Apply makeup, even minimal amounts
Live in an urban environment with pollution exposure
Have oily or acne-prone skin
Want to maximize the effectiveness of your serums and active ingredients
