Best Way to Double Cleanse?

Hi! I was wondering what products you think are best for a double cleanse? I’m used to using micellar water, but I’m curious to see why others prefer cleansing balms? I typically don’t wear foundation but I am a daily sunscreen wearer. I’m excited to hear everyone’s thoughts and why they think micellar water or a cleansing balm is better!

Hello, I don’t use make up too and only sunscreen. I personally prefer cleansing balm because it’s much easier to handle and don’t get messy. I don’t particularly enjoy micellar water because sometimes it irritates me and I find it doesn’t clean as well. But is really up to one’s preference :) however I do use micellar water when doing make up to clean the messy bits with a dab on cotton bud.

Hi Ashley, welcome to Picky 🤗 A lot of us double cleanse, especially peeps who use sunscreen. I use organic coconut 🥥 oil as my first cleanse. It's economical & good! I'm following you on IG. I'd appreciate if you followed me too 💕 @blueskies8whiteclouds

Cleansing balms or oils will break down sunscreen. Should you prefer micellar water, do 2 rounds of cleanse followed by a foaming or gel cleanser 😉

I prefer cleansing balm over micellar water. For me balm deep cleans better than micellar and more convenient to use. 😁

I always feel like cleansing oils or balms are much effective in cleaning sunscreen residues rather than micellar water. 😅
