How to master your morning face care routine

Refreshing and quick – it’s no wonder so many of us wash our faces with a splash of water as part of our morning rituals. But what if there was a better way to give your skin the care it deserves? Using a warm cloth to wash your face will feel nice and comforting, but it also makes a real difference to your morning face routine. Whether you use a silk, muslin or bamboo cloth, the soft texture gently exfoliates and removes dead skin cells, so every time you do your daily facial cleansing, you’re left with a beautifully smooth canvas for the rest of your skin care routine.

Cleansing is one of the most important parts of your skin care routine, so it’s really key that you find a cleanser your skin will love. Something like Dove Oil Control Facial Cleansing Mousse will be perfect for helping you feel your best. Enriched with Beauty Serum and Ceramides, it gently cleanses while moisturizing skin. Inspired by J-Beauty products, this creamy mousse will not only leave your skin in tip top condition, it’ll give you a refreshing start to your skin care routine.

If you’re craving a bit of TLC and really want to pamper yourself during your skin care routine, try using a cleanser that’s gentle to your skin. Dove Sensitive Mild Facial Cleansing Mousse will turn every cleanse into a gentle 30-second facial massage. With a creamy lather that lightly cleanses pores, removes makeup and nourishes skin, the formula will improve your sensitive skin’s defence system while caring for your microbiome– what more could you want for your morning rituals?

As much as we all love a steamy hot shower, when it comes to washing your face, heat isn’t always our best friend. Hot water can strip your skin of its natural oils that help keep it healthy and glowing. So, to protect your skin, always use lukewarm water to keep your daily facial cleansing routine as gentle and caring as possible.

Happy, healthy-looking skin needs enough moisture to keep it hydrated throughout the day. So, to get your morning rituals off to a great start, choose a caring cleanser like Dove Hydrating Facial Cleansing Mousse and follow it up with a moisturizer that suits your skin type. Then you can enjoy the hydration it gives you all day long.

No matter the weather, using SPF as part of your daily skin care routine will keep your skin looking and feeling healthy for years to come. It might be tempting to skip this step from your morning skin care routine unless the sun is out, but it’s the best way to protect your skin while you’re out and about.
