Cleansing is the foundation of a routine because it removes daily buildup, sunscreen, makeup, and surface impurities. Toner or conditioner can follow to prepare the skin for moisturiser and targeted care.
Nimue Cleansing Gel
Nimue describes its Cleansing Gel as a hydrating gel cleanser that removes makeup and supports gentle exfoliation. Use it according to the directions on the pack and avoid aggressive rubbing.
Wet or prepare the skin as directed on the label.
Use the recommended amount rather than over-dispensing.
Massage gently across the face, avoiding direct contact with the eyes.
Rinse thoroughly and pat the skin dry with a clean towel.
Follow with the next routine step while the skin feels comfortable, not stripped.
Nimue Toner
Toner is used after cleansing. It should complement the routine rather than create stinging or tightness. Apply it exactly as directed and keep it away from irritated or broken skin unless the label says otherwise.
How often should I cleanse?
Many people cleanse in the evening to remove sunscreen, makeup, sweat, and daily buildup. Morning cleansing needs vary. Over-cleansing can increase dryness and irritation, so adjust the routine to your skin and follow professional advice if you use prescription products.
Common mistakes
Using very hot water
Scrubbing to chase a squeaky-clean feeling
Leaving cleanser residue around the hairline
Using the same towel for too long
Adding several exfoliating steps at once
Continuing despite persistent burning or redness
