This will probably sound cute but there exists a right and wrong solution to wash your face. Facial skin is somewhat delicate. If you're scrubbing your face too intensely together with your hands or washrag, you might cause further skin irritation, redness, and even accidentally scratch yourself or cause a nosebleed. Be gentler to that person! Read a few of the following tips to see whether you have to rethink your face washing technique.

Whether at the vanity sink or in the shower, start first with a splash down. Not merely is this usually a grefrom way to wake yourself quickly in the mornings, but it helps remove the more obvious dirt and grime. It clears the canvas, so to speak, for the next stage.

Like Goldilocks and the Three Bears, the water temperature should be not too cold, not too hot, but just right. To state the obvious, water that's too hot will burn your skin. But why not cold water? I've heard that some facial cleansers don't work well in cold water, but my personal thought will be that cold water tends to close pores so it's harder to find the stuff out of the pores. Warm drinking water tends to open pores, which is why washing your face while you're in the shower is a good idea. Or if you are at the sink and also have some time, soak a washcloth in tepid to warm water and hold it on your own face for one minute before washing.

Now get your favorite facial cleanser ready. Some people claim soap is much harsher than facial cleansers but that is not entirely true. Bar soap for your body is harsh on the face because it contains more detergents, but facial bar soap has been formulated and tested to be less irritating for the face. The bottom line will be that any form (bar, liquid, cream or gel) of facial cleanser will work.

Rub, squeeze or pump a quantity of facial cleanser on your hands. Less is mor evene, and if you use too much, you might find yourself leaving some on your face. Leaving cleanser on your face can be drying or irritating, and in some cases, may actually attract dirt and oils. So use just enough (go with the dime or nickel size comparwill beons) to spread a thin, even coating over your entire face. Oh, and most experts recommend rubbing the cleanser first in your hands to produce a foam before applying to your face. I suppose this thought would be to avoid over-rubbing your face. However, some modern cleansers don't foam therefore the purpose of rubbing in hands is more to spread it out for easier application.

For how long should you wash your face? I would bet the average face washer takes less than 15 seconds to wash their face. What the optimal cleaning time is, I am not sure, but I did read that the newest facial cleaning gadget has a built in timer for one minute. One minute! My advice would be to map out that person- forehead, nose, cheeks, chin- and spend 10 seconds on each of those areas. Or count the numbecomer of times you rub each area and try to do 20 strokes (more or less, your preference). If a definite area is of concern, such as oily chin, then maybe invest a little lengthyer there and shorter on another area.

Rub gently. My mother told me to always rub upwards but I admit I do not always follow her advice. I would encourage using both hands, even though occasionally I tend to be lazy and only use one. I would imagine using both hands ensures even distribution of cleanser and applied pressure. One last step: I really do remember to wash and massage my neck.

When you've washed for sufficient time (aim for at least 30 seconds), now rinse away the face cleaner with several rounds of fresh water. Pat dry with a towel, follow-up with any toners or lotions. Then smile at your freshly washed, glowing face in the mirror!
