1. Tie your hair back
I'm assuming you're a girl if you're reading this, but if you are not, ignore this step. Tie your hair back and clip back any loose hair or your bangs. It is highly suggested to always keep your hair away from your face whenever you're at home because hair tends to irritate the skin and cause possibly breakouts, which no one wants.
2. Wash your hands thoroughly
You don't want the germs from your hands be rubbed all around your face, do you? If you have any eye makeup, remove before you wash your face.
3. Splash lukewarm water all over face
Don't splash warm or hot water on your face because it is bad for your skin, and don't do cold water either. Warm water helps "open up your pores" to encourage deeper cleansing. If you can even let your face steam a little in the bath or over a pot of boiling water, it would be better.
4. Apply cleanser all over your face with your fingers in gentle circular motions
Don't forget to apply it in the sides of your face and your temples. Focus on the t-zone especially if you're prone to acne and where your hair touches your face to prevent breakouts or acne.
5. Rinse
This is an important step and you need to spend a long time on it because the cleanser residue will clog your pores and damage your skin in general. Rinse in a gentle manner, don't scrub.
6. Splash with cold water
It feels good and makes your skin glow because it closes your pores. Don't splash with ice-cold water though, as it will shock your skin and that wouldn't be good. You can also use an ice cube and rub it gently across your face.
7. Let your face air dry, don't use a towel.
8. Apply alcohol free toner (optional)
9. SMILE!
