Shereene Idriss demonstrates double-cleansing with a gel cleanser, using a UV camera to show how surfactants lift sunscreen and makeup completely off skin. A white-towel test proves nothing remains after washing.
Do you really need to double cleanse to remove all of your makeup and sunscreen? We're putting this to the test with a UV camera and this gel cleanser going directly on dry skin after warming it up with warm water. Certain surfactants have the ability to form muscles that can lift and trap dirt, lifting it off of your skin. Here you can see on camera how it starts to break up the sunscreen. I like to go in after the fact with a damp washcloth in order to physically remove any debris left behind before washing it all away with water. Just make sure to put your hair up. And the first test that we do is our white towel test in order to see if any visible makeup is left behind and it's not taking it a step further, let's look under the UV camera. And no sunscreen is left behind. Success. Not all cleansers are created equal. Not all men are created equal. Well, kind of.
