Tips & Warnings
  • Consider using a cleansing cloth or make-up remover wipe to remove cleanser rather than tap water. Tap water can have hard water properties that are rough on your skin.
  • Be careful to avoid stripping all the natural oil from your face. Your skin needs some amount of natural oils to be healthy.
