AN ESSENTIAL STEP IN YOUR EVENING ROUTINE FOR BEAUTIFUL SKIN BY MORNING...
Wipes, micellar waters, and cleansers alone are not enough to remove the residue that builds up on our face every day. Double cleansing is a key step in an evening routine that should never be overlooked.
THE PROCESS
Double cleansing means first washing the face with an oil-based cleanser, which emulsifies dirt, sebum, SPF, and makeup. Once this top layer of impurities has been removed, a water-based cleanser with AHAs is used to deeply cleanse the pores, refine skin texture, fight acne, and boost collagen production.
“Without this two-step process, you risk layering your precious skincare products over leftover foundation, sebum, and toxins. Not only will your routine be less effective, but your skin may become even more damaged. Going to bed without properly washing your face can hinder cell regeneration and lead to premature aging.”
Jena Covello - Founder of AGENT NATEUR
Beautiful skin in the morning starts the night before with double cleansing to rid the skin of anything that could interfere with cell turnover overnight. The skin needs to regenerate during the night, so it is essential that it be completely free of all impurities. It will better absorb the products applied in the evening, allowing them to work throughout the night. Effective double cleansing helps achieve brighter skin, reduce signs of aging, diminish blemishes, and allow better penetration of the active ingredients you apply afterward.
As you can see, double cleansing is a must in your night routine. It is not simply a cleansing step, but the first step of your routine. Cleansers contain so many active ingredients that they can even be left on like a mask.
STEP Nº1: CLEANSING OIL
Start by massaging the oil directly onto dry skin. It provides gentle makeup removal and dissolves makeup, SPF, pollution, excess sebum, and dead skin cells. Massage for 1 to 2 minutes while performing a lymphatic massage. Rinse with lukewarm water, then gently pat your face dry.

STEP Nº2: THE CLEANSER
Then apply the cleanser, focusing on the sides of the nose. It deeply cleanses the pores and lightly exfoliates the skin. Massage for as long as you like. You can even leave your cleanser on like a mask while you take your shower, for example. Rinse with lukewarm water, then gently pat your face dry. Immediately afterward, apply a toner, because you should never leave the skin bare to avoid dehydration.
