Oil Cleansing & Double Cleansing

Tips for cleaning the skin with only oil:

• Always add oil to dry skin. Don't wet your face first, because then the cleansing oil won't stick to the dirt so well, but may remain on the skin.
• Always use a clean face sponge or washcloth to wipe off excess oil.
• Give your face a light massage while massaging the oil into your face. It helps to stimulate blood circulation in the skin.
• You can also wet and steam a face cloth and leave it on the face for a while before wiping off the oil. Warm steam opens the pores and enhances cleaning (removes blackheads effectively).

Double cleansing with Nurturing Oil and facial soap

If you have very dry and easily irritated skin and you need a thorough skin cleansing from e.g. heavy make-up or impurities, try double cleansing. The gentleness of double cleansing is based on the fact that the oil removes make-up and absorbs impurities from the skin, after which the facial soap only washes away the added oil and impurities. In this way, the surface of the face better maintains its own moisture barrier.

1. Start by massaging Nurturing Oil (approx. 1 tsp) into dry skin in circular and upward movements, not forgetting the skin around the eyes and neck. Continue massaging until the make-up and dirt have started to come off.

2. Wipe off most oils and make-up gently with a slighty moistened face sponge, muslin cloth, face mitt or reusable cotton pad.

3. Finish the facial cleansing by washing off the rest of the make-up and oil from the face with facial soap or another cleansing product.

4. Rinse the face, gently pat dry and finish with facial toner and face cream/oil serum.

Benefits

What does the Nurturing Oil contain and what are the benefits of its ingredients in skin care?

Calendula is suitable for all skin types. It is an old folk medicine herb and its numerous plant compounds are beneficial for the well-being of the skin. Calendula extract can be used to treat a wide range of skin problems such as eczema, acne and atopy. The active ingredients are saponins, salicylic acid, carotenoids and natural essential oils. Calendula is also very antioxidant-rich. Calendula is well tolerated and therefore a popular and safe plant even for small children (0-3yrs). Flowers are grown organically without pesticides in Kolme Cosmetics’ own garden.

Oat oil
Finnish cold pressed oat oil is an ideal moisturizer and softener for sensitive skin, reducing inflammation and redness. Oat oil contains e.g. vitamin E and beta-glucan, which help to regenerate, moisturize, protect and soothe the skin. Oat oil stimulates skin metabolism by increasing the production of elastane and collagen.

Safflower Oil Thanks to this oil, the Nurturing oil is light and is quickly absorbed into the skin, giving a soft feeling. Calendula is extracted into safflower oil and serves as the base for the Nurturing  Oil. Safflower oil contains a lot of vitamin E. Doesn't clog pores, so it's also suitable for acne skin.

Vitamin E keeps the Nurturing Oil fresh and prevents oxidation. Vitamin E is also an antioxidant-rich skin’s own “protective wall” caregiver.
