How often do you cleanse?

Cleansing skin becomes more and more important the more we age. The removal of makeup, pollution and general grubiness helps to de-escalate the risk of spots, blemishes and other skin complaints.

We advise cleansing to take place at least twice a day, followed by a good toner and a rich moisturiser. Hair should be tied back, and you should always clean your hands before the morning and evening routines.

But one of the most important things you should do is choose the right cleanser for you. Picking the wrong facewash is one of the most common errors in skin care. Picking one that is too gentle can leave dirt to remain on the face. Picking one that is too astringent and strong will strip the skin and make the sebaceous glands create more and more oil.

So it’s important to get it right, particularly if you suffer from dry, sensitive, oily or complaint skin. And as you get older, it’s important to pick a wash that is designed to help more mature skin.

Dr. Spiller Biomimetic Skin Care Dr. Spiller Wash Cream is a rich, creamy, hydrating cleansing cream for dry or mature skin. It’s also excellent for removing make-up.

With its water base, it’s for dry, mature skin types and its creamy emulsion formula effortlessly dissolves impurities and make-up without stripping or drying.

It also has a very skin friendly pH which respects and restores the acid mantle. And with its 2-in-1 cleansing effect, it gently dissolves waterproof and transfer-resistant make-up.

The hypoallergenic formula supports and protects without irritation to leave skin feeling cleansed, soft and nourished.

How to use: Massage into skin with moist fingertips using circular motions, remove with warm compresses. Follow with toner to balance the skin’s pH and appropriate care products.
