Let’s face it: people have made many mistakes when using cosmetic products in recent decades. As a result, they have damaged their skin instead of supporting it.<\/p>\n

Cleaning<\/strong> your face plays an essential role in skincare routine. Let’s take a look at the ingredients<\/strong> we should avoid and point out the most effective and safe methods<\/strong> to clean our skin.<\/p>\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n<\/section>\n\n

1. Wash your hands before washing your face<\/h4>\n

Keeping this in mind can make a big difference! Think about what your hands have touched today. It is important not to transfer bacteria<\/strong> and dirt<\/strong> from your hands onto your face. Wash your hands first!<\/p>\n

2. Use a two-step cleansing routine when using make-up<\/h4>\n

First, remove make-up<\/strong> with our Babyface make-up remover<\/a>, which is also suitable for removing eye makeup<\/strong>. It is a creamy mixture of vegetable<\/strong> oils<\/strong> and bioactive substances<\/strong>, removing makeup effortlessly and leaving the skin nourished<\/strong>, calm<\/strong>, and smooth<\/strong>. You can use cotton pads or facial washcloths.<\/p>\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n<\/section>\n\n

3. Choose a product suitable for your skin condition<\/h4>\n

Check the <\/span>ingredients<\/span><\/strong>.<\/span>\u00a0Sulphates<\/strong> can be too harsh and irritating<\/strong> to the skin. See if the product contains sodium lauryl sulphate (SLS) or ammonium lauryl sulphate.<\/span><\/p>\n

SLS<\/strong> is one of the cheapest and strongest surfactants in skin care products and one of the most irritating<\/strong> ones. SLS canremove the lipids of the stratum corneum<\/strong> and penetrate deep into the skin’s viable layers, and cause skin irritation and inflammation <\/strong>(L\u00e9mery et al, 2015<\/a>).<\/p>\n

The cleanser is too harsh for your skin if your skin feels squeaky<\/strong> and tight<\/strong> after using it.<\/p>\n

All LUMI cleansers<\/a><\/strong> are free of surfactants<\/strong> because we believe we should not remove the microbiome<\/strong> and protective barrier<\/strong> from our skin’s surface. It is our skin’s best and most natural defence against environmental damage<\/strong>,bacteria and premature ageing<\/strong>. With the right cleanser, your skin will feel good<\/strong> and smooth<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Our cleansing products for everyday<\/strong> use are gentle<\/strong>, and the acid<\/strong> content is not too harsh for the<\/strong> skin. We do not favour shocking the skin with strong acids. We recommend daily gentle skincare that gives the same result over time and without developing additional skin problems because of harsh skincare.<\/p>\n

TUNDRA AHA-BHA cleansing milk<\/a><\/strong> is ideal for acne-prone skin<\/strong>. The cleansing milk exfoliates<\/strong> the skin preventing pore clogging<\/strong>, and mildly but effectively offers maximum results without drying the skin<\/strong>. AHA acids are crucial in anti-ageing skincare routines, making this product an ideal anti-ageing cleanser<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The keratolytic abilities<\/strong> of AHAs weaken the bonds between dead skin cells, making them exfoliate, resulting in a fresher look and less clogged pores<\/strong>. The composition includes a unique mixture from the Amazon rainforest (Copaifera officinalis (balsam copaiba) resin, Carapa guaianensis (Andiroba) seed oil and Euterpe oleracea (A\u00e7a\u00ed palm) pulp oil). Studies prove it reduces acne breakouts by up to 42.9% after 48 days of continuous use<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Moisturising facial cleansing milk<\/a><\/strong> is a perfect choice for sensitive skin<\/strong>. It is free of fragrances<\/strong>, surfactant-free<\/strong> and does not irritate<\/strong> the skin. It is suitable for all skin types, even the most sensitive ones. The cold-pressed hemp seed oil<\/strong> has valuable omega fatty acids that help restore the skin barrier<\/strong>. The lactic acid<\/strong> exfoliates gently and accelerates cell regeneration creating a radiant and even complexion.<\/p>\n

TIP!<\/strong> Use cleansing milks as a deep cleansing mask<\/strong> a few times a week<\/strong>, and keep it on your face for up to 5 minutes before washing off, depending on how your skin reacts.<\/p>\n

4. Avoid washing your face too often<\/h4>\n

Washing your face 1-2 times<\/b> a day is enough. People with oily skin tend to wash their faces too often. Overwashing makes the skin very dry, and the skin produces even more oil because of it. Wash your face with lukewarm water<\/b>because too hot water irritates and dries the skin and makes it produce more sebum, and cold water does not wash away the dirt. Washing your face should take at least 60 seconds<\/b> so that the ingredients of the cleansing milk can remove all unnecessary from the skin.<\/p>\n

5. Drying your face<\/h4>\n

Use a soft towel<\/b> and change it after a couple of days<\/b>. Air-dry the towel <\/b>between uses. You do not need<\/b> to rub your face completely dry<\/b> with a towel. Pat most of the water off and use skincare products<\/b> suitable for applying on damp skin<\/b>.<\/p>\n

6. The finishing touches<\/h4>\n

After washing your face, use a<\/span>\u00a0face toner<\/span><\/strong>\u00a0to\u00a0<\/span>balance the skin`s pH\u00a0<\/span><\/strong>and\u00a0<\/span>prepare the skin for serums and creams<\/span><\/strong>. For example, <\/span>Superbloom Skin Toning Gel-Tonic<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0gives a solid finish to your cleansing routine. Use it as a daily face wash for normal and problematic skin<\/strong>. The toner revitalises, evens out the skin, and adds shine.<\/span><\/p>\n
