\"shower\"<\/p>\n

Most of us take a shower in the evening after work and before bed, and this is when we wash our faces for the 2nd time in the day. For those who use makeup, it is also the time you clean off your makeup and allow your skin to breathe.<\/p>\n

I have a suggestion for you to try – wash your face last, after or at the end of your shower. I do this and I wonder if anyone else does? \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

My reason for doing so is because I start off my evening shower by washing my hair. After washing and conditioning, I realise that the hair products will run down my face together with the water. I’m not so hardworking as to lean backwards or to lean forwards to drain the water away from the face to avoid this.<\/p>\n

So, washing my face only after I wash my hair i.e. towards the end of my shower makes sense to clean off any residue of shampoo and conditioner that might have gotten on my skin. Its also a way to help counter facial acne caused by shampoo or conditioner<\/a>. If you have sensitive skin washing your face after washing your hair might be something to try.
\n
\nI’ve also read that by the end of your shower, if you use warm water, the steam and warm air would have caused your pores to open so it gets cleaner. Personally I don’t know if pores open and shut like windows but its certainly something worth thinking about.<\/p>\n

I do however, remove my makeup before getting into the shower. If I’m using a cleansing oil, I do so before I shower then I wash my face again towards the end of my shower. I double cleanse<\/a> as a habit and as a\u00a0 matter of preference.<\/p>\n

When do you wash your face? Before or after your shower and do you have a reason why you do so? Its an age old question that has no right or wrong answer so share away! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

Stay beautiful,<\/p>\n
