Do not try to “strip” your skin of all oil. Instead, gently cleanse it with clean hands and apply your makeup remover and/or cleanser using small, light circular movements all over the face. The most important thing is to cleanse until your skin is completely clean and there are no marks left on the cotton pad or towel. Ensure you are cleasning in both the morning and evening to remove anything the skin has absorbed throughout the day and night.
