after you cleanse, your skin should feel clean. for me this means my skin is not oily, smooth and light, and my pores feel like it can âbreatheâ completely.
usually we use cleansing water/oil first to help break down and emulsify sunscreen/makeup. it wonât remove all your sunscreen. the second cleanseâwith a cleanserâensures that sunscreen is completely removed. if youâre worried about not removing your sunscreen completely, i suggest taking your time with the cleansing water, and being thorough. massage your skin with it to let the water and oil do its job.
so the cleansing water you use doesnât really have any ingredients that can cause dryness. it only has 3 ingredients, tho it does seem like something that can be used as a toner. my guess is that thereâs something in your cleanser(s) thatâs making your skin dry. i suggest discontinue use of the cleanser thatâs doing that.
