Organic double cleansing: the step-by-step guide
On The Wild Side
Organic double cleansing combines an oil cleanser (dissolves makeup, SPF, sebum) followed by a gentle water-based cleanser. It's the foundation of healthy skin, especially in urban environments.
Double cleansing is the foundation of healthy skin — especially if you wear SPF, makeup, or live in a city. With organic products, it's simple: an oil to dissolve, a gentle cleanser to rinse.
The principle: like dissolves like
Makeup, SPF, and sebum are lipophilic: only an oil-based formula can dissolve them. The OTWS Cleansing Oil, enriched with sunflower and plum oil, does this gently.
The 2 steps
-
Cleansing Oil (on dry skin)
2–3 pipettes on dry skin, massage for 30–60 s, emulsify with lukewarm water, rinse thoroughly.
-
Cleansing Jelly
Cleansing Jelly on damp skin, massage, rinse. Clean skin without greasy residue.
Who is it essential for?
- You wear makeup or SPF daily
- You live in a city (pollution, fine particles)
- Combination, oily, or blemish-prone skin
- Long-lasting or waterproof makeup
Mistakes to avoid
- Skipping step 2 after the oil — residues can remain.
- Water that's too hot — prefer lukewarm water.
- Aggressively rubbing the eyes — massage gently.
Frequently asked questions
Can I skip step 2 if I don't wear makeup?
In the morning, a cleanser is enough. In the evening, even without makeup, double cleansing removes SPF and pollution.
Is it suitable for sensitive eyes?
Yes. Massage gently without rubbing.
Is oil enough on its own?
No. The second aqueous cleanser removes residues and prepares the skin for treatments.
