How to Wash Your Face

Washing one's face may appear to be the simplest and least talked about topic on earth, but if not done properly, it can damage your skin and eyes. A face speaks volumes about one's personality, and a well looked after face not only attracts attention and adulation, but fosters confidence in a person. Therefore the face must be cleansed properly and in the right way. It's pretty simple.

1. Tie your hair from your face to stop it from getting annoying. If you have bangs wear a headband or use a hair clip. If you wear glasses or contacts, take them out or off.
2. First wash your hands with a good face soap to clean them.
3. Wet your face with warm water to open your pores.
4. Take the cleanser or face wash and get a small amount on your hands, about the size of a nickel. Rub some on your wet hands. Use cleanser that is gentle enough for your skin.
5. Work up a good lather by rubbing both hands together and applying it on your face.
6. Using your fingers, rub the cleanser all over your face removing dirt on the surface of your skin.
7. Rinse your face with cool, clean water, to close your pores, keeping the soap out of your eyes.
8. Pat your face dry with a clean and soft face towel or toilet paper. Make sure you pat it dry to reduce wrinkles as you mature.
9. It's a good idea to moisturize your face after washing it.

Important tips:-
• Use a soap that suits your skin type: oily, normal or dry.
• If soap gets into your eyes, immediately rinse your eyes with water.
• Twice a day should do it. Washing too much will irritate your skin more.
• If your skin is too dry after washing, use water only and pat dry, or apply a moisturizing lotion afterward. Make sure the moisturizer is not oily or it may cause pimples.
• Wash your face twice if you have been wearing makeup. The first wash removes the makeup and the second cleanses the skin.
• Talk to your doctor about possible dermatological issues if you have chronic skin problems. They may very well stem from things you put on your skin: like soap!
• For some people, washing their face with soap can dry their skin out. If you are one of those people, try using a gentle face-wash such as Pro-Active(a face-wash that also helps with acne)or Cetaphil.
