Lavien Perfect Balance Moisture Cleansing Milk

"Ultimately, it's important to choose the makeup remover based on your skin type & texture preference!"

Cleansing water or Micellar water, contains oily micelles, to help cleanse the surface of your skin and remove makeup. It has a great advantage of helping you to achieve a refreshing effect and immediate cleansing. While it helps to remove water-soluble cosmetics, it may require rounds of cleansing and rubbing your skin excessively with cotton pads for heavy makeup removal. 

As such, if you have dry or oily skin, cleansing milk would be your go-to makeup remover for your first step of cleansing as it helps dissolve the surface impurities and facial oils without dehydrating your skin. At the same time, your skin can still stay balanced and moisturised. Likewise, cleansing milk is greatly recommended for individuals who wear heavy makeup while  micellar water is generally sufficient to remove light makeup.

WHY IS CLEANSING SO IMPORTANT?

"Cleansing is essential as it helps to remove your make-up, impurities, dead skin cells, and excess oil!” 

It is equally important to ensure our face is cleansed thoroughly as it is important to apply a good essence or cream on our skin. Our skin inevitably faces many external aggressors like makeup, sweat to even fine dust in the environment. With daily facial cleansing, we can better remove accumulated wastes off our face.

Cleansing is the first step of all skincare routines and it is the best way to help prepare our skin for other skincare products too.

It is recommended to use a primary cleanser that removes makeup along with an oil and moisture balance cleanser that contains oil and moisture accordingly. This helps to effectively remove makeup oil and sebum from the pores and next, provide sufficient moisture for your skin right after washing your face!Wrong cleansing not only ruins your skin but it can also result in blackhead, pores, facial oil outburst, dried & cracked skin, reddish & irritated skin as well as sensitive skin. 

WHY YOU SHOULD DOUBLE CLEANSE?

"Double cleansing is a two-step skincare process to help remove any impurities that may still be trapped deeper into your pores!” 

Living in Singapore with high humidity level all year round, our skin are constantly exposed to dust particles and what not in the environment. In addition, our skin are constantly producing excess sebum as we speak, that would result in enlarged, clogged pores and skin congestion (this is something we NEED TO AVOID!) 

The benefit of double cleansing is that the first cleanser will help to break down any makeup on your skin, remove impurities and excess oil that have been accumulated for the day, thereby cleaning your skin. With that, the second cleanser will then address your skin concern and cleanse again with its ingredients to help hydrate, exfoliate or even brighten your skin. 

The bottom line is, you should tailor the double-cleansing duo at each step based on your skin's needs - consider your own skin type and specific skin concerns. By doing so, you skin also get the most of the routine and avoid over-washing and dehydrating your skin!

What is Mugwort?

쑥 [Ssuk, pronounced “sook”]: Mugwort

Artemisia Princeps, also called Korean wormwood, Korean mugwort is an Asian plant species in the sunflower family, native to countries like Korea, Japan and China. They are best harvested or used in early spring seasons, when they are young and soft. Koreans also use them as a home remedy to staunch bleeding and help with stomach discomforts usually around May and June, when the texture is tougher.

In Korea, mugwort is being regarded as a healing herb for its antibacterial, anti-fungal, and skin-protective properties thanks to its richness in vitamin A, vitamin C, and minerals. Being the miracle ingredient in skincare, it targets dry, irritated skin effectively! Its soothing and anti-inflammatory properties helps to relieve redness and retain moisture for your skin.⁠ It is also a common ingredient used in soups, salads, rice cakes and even pancakes too! 

Ssuk has always been well-known by natives in Korean folklore, being one of the herbs behind the creation of the first Korean dynasty. While it has been a part of Korean culture since the beginning of time, more Korean beauty products have been steadily incorporating this miracle ingredient into their formula with the aim of soothing and treating sensitive skins.

Thanks to its great benefits, it's no wonder that this powerful ingredient has been an up and coming trend in Korean skincare!
