There is a saying: If you spend 15 minutes applying your make-up, you should spend 15 minutes removing it.

Since we use long lasting lipsticks and long wearing foundations, we need to pay particular attention to removing those thoroughly so we don’t cause any pigmentation and skin dullness. On top of it, airborne bacteria and pollution is attracted to your skin throughout the day, and if they aren't washed away properly, they could potentially contribute to ageing and breakouts.

A quick cleanse with a face wipe will do very little to dislodge foundation and pollution particles, and you aren't giving your skin cells the best chance at regenerating which means no plump, youthful complexion.

Definitely consider to Double Cleanse if you are wearing make-up and/or sunscreen and provides a deep clean at night time.

• The Balancing & Purifying Face Cleansing Oil, clears the skins' surface, drawing out oil-based dirt such as oxidized sebum, old skin cells, daily build up from pollution and make-up, before advancing deeper into the pores with
