Dermatologist Shereene Idriss walks through a two-step face wash: micellar water first, then cleanser applied to dry skin in a dime-size dollop. Massage for about a minute with lukewarm water, keeping your eyes open around the eye area to remove all makeup and impurities.

This is how you wash your face. If you are wearing really heavy makeup, you can do a double cleanse. The first cleanse, I'm always a micellar water girl, but if you like oil cleansers and that's your jam, you do you. Otherwise, if it's everyday makeup, your Soft Wash Cleanser by yours truly is your trick on the go. It is strong enough yet gentle enough to do both. Nice dime-size amount. We add a little bit of lukewarm water and we start warming it up. The trick here is to apply it to dry skin. So we go to town. We work our way around our eyes. I can still open my eyes and I'm working this in for about a minute or so. Gently around your eyes while opening your eyes and then working your skin around your face to get everything off. There's nothing left behind.
