An effective cleansing routine will balance your skin, helping it to function properly. All skin types need to be cleansed twice a day. Beauty therapist found that a lot of clients who would not dream of going to bed without cleansing their skins, but don’t bother in the morning. However, cleansing in the morning is really important. Your skin throws out toxic waste products while you sleep and if you apply moisturizer straight on to your skin you are actually preventing this shedding process from being effective.
