(Which should be everyone!)

Why is sunscreen difficult to remove?

Sunscreen is formulated to lay on the surface of the skin, forming a protective film to absorb UV radiation before it can reach the viable epidermis. Unlike active ingredients such as vitamin C and retinol, you do not want sunscreen UV filters to penetrate the skin. Absorption of UV filters into the skin results in reduced sun protection, potential skin irritation, as well as systemic absorption. To minimize permeation, sunscreens often contain film formers, polymers, and sticky coatings which also makes them a little more difficult to wash off.

Enter: The Double Cleanse. This method starts with an oil cleanser followed by a foaming cleanser to effectively remove sunscreen as well as any makeup and sebum while leaving skin soft and smooth - not stripped.
