Double cleansing is one of the pillars of skincare in Korea, a country known for its devotion to beauty and skin wellness. This method has revolutionized skincare, being an essential routine to deeply remove makeup, dirt and excess oil. Although its origin is in Asia, its effectiveness has made it become a global trend to achieve more balanced and healthy skin.
Why should I do double cleansing?
Both combination and oily skin types benefit greatly from this routine, as it helps balance sebum production, regulating the skin's natural oils. However, if you have dry skin, you'll also notice the difference! This deep cleansing not only removes impurities, but also leaves the skin much more hydrated and with an unparalleled feeling of freshness.
How to do double cleansing?
Step One: Oil Cleanse The first step is to use an oil-based cleanser, which works to break down makeup, sunscreen, and all the grime that builds up throughout the day. Did you know that oils are amazing at drawing out excess oil without drying out your skin? Whether it’s coconut oil, jojoba oil, or a specific cleanser, this step is vital to melt away anything that might be clogging your pores.At Nuup Beauty we recommend:
- Eiio Green Mint Pore Cleansing Balm : It is a cleansing balm that melts makeup, sunscreen and accumulated dirt, leaving the skin fresh and clean.
-
Skin1004 Madagascar Centella Light Cleansing Oil : A light oil that removes impurities and soothes the skin with the benefits of centella asiatica.
Step Two: Cleanse with Water This is where a water-based cleanser, such as foams, gels or creams, comes in, designed to remove any residue left behind and balance the skin’s natural oil. This cleanser ensures that your skin is completely purified and ready to better absorb subsequent products.

When to Incorporate Double Cleansing?
Although it may sound excessive, it is recommended to do double cleansing both in the morning and at night. In the morning, it helps eliminate toxins and excess oil that the skin has generated during the night, while at night, it cleanses the dirt accumulated during the day, leaving your skin ready for its nightly regeneration process.At Nuup Beauty, we integrate double cleansing as an essential step in our facial treatments. Before applying any treatment, we make sure that the skin is completely clean and free of impurities, first using an oil-based cleanser to dissolve makeup and deep dirt, and then a water-based cleanser to purify and balance. This process is key, as it prepares the skin to better receive the active ingredients of our products, maximizing their benefits. We believe that well-cleansed skin is the first step towards healthy, radiant and vital skin, which is why double cleansing is a fundamental part of our skincare protocols.
