Short instructional/demo by a board-certified dermatologist (Shereene Idriss) explaining how to use an active sulfur cleanser: remove makeup first, then massage the cleanser into oily areas (e.g., nose) and use it like a mask to address sebaceous filaments. The clip emphasizes that over-washing increases oil production and that active cleansers require deliberate application rather than brief splashing.

You guys are oily little motherfuckers and you're washing your face is all wrong. I'm a board certified dermatologist. It's not about washing your face twice a day or trying to get every piece of oil off of your face, because guess what? You're just gonna make more oil. So this is how you use an active cleanser. You don't just put it on your face and splish splash and feel like you've done your job. You get yourself an active cleanser. This is one with sulfur. My face is currently dry. I took a micellar water, I took that makeup off. And what I'm going to do is take this baby right here and apply it to my face, massaging it into my skin, especially in the oily areas on my nose. If you have sebaceous filaments, you know, making sure I use this cleanser like a mask.
