卸妝後護膚步驟｜正確清潔先至有效

卸完妝,係咪就代表清潔完成?

好多人以為卸妝之後皮膚已經乾淨晒,可以直接進入護膚步驟,但其實卸妝產品本身都有機會喺皮膚表面留低殘留,如果冇再做一次清潔,呢啲殘留物就有機會積聚喺毛孔,長遠影響皮膚狀態。一項為期4星期、涉及35名輕度異位性皮膚炎女性受試者嘅臨床試驗發現，揀選清潔力強但摩擦力低嘅卸妝油，可以有效卸除彩妝同防曬殘留，同時唔會令肌膚症狀惡化——反映卸妝步驟嘅產品選擇同手法，同清潔效果同樣重要。

Many people assume skin is fully clean right after removing makeup, and jump straight into their skincare routine. But makeup removers themselves can leave residue on the skin's surface — and without a follow-up cleanse, that residue can build up in pores over time and affect skin's condition long term.

為咩卸妝之後仲要再潔面?

卸妝步驟嘅主要作用係溶解同帶走面部嘅化妝品同防曬產品,但卸妝油或者卸妝水本身都係油性或者含有其他成分嘅產品,如果冇經過第二重清潔,呢啲成分有機會殘留喺皮膚表面。呢個亦係「雙重潔面」(Double Cleansing)呢個概念嘅由來——先用卸妝產品處理彩妝防曬,再用潔面產品做一次徹底清潔,兩個步驟分工唔同,缺一不可。

The main role of makeup removal is to dissolve and lift off makeup and sunscreen — but makeup removers themselves, whether oil or water-based, are products with their own ingredients, and without a second cleanse, some of that can remain on the skin's surface. This is where the concept of "double cleansing" comes from — first using a makeup remover to handle makeup and sunscreen, then following up with a cleanser for a thorough clean. Each step has a distinct role, and neither should be skipped.

第二步潔面:揀溫和配方,避免過度清潔

卸妝之後嘅第二重清潔,建議揀質地溫和、唔會令皮膚有繃緊感嘅潔面產品,例如BARR 積雪草舒緩凝膠潔面乳,含積雪草成分,清潔之餘都有助維持皮膚舒適狀態。洗面嘅時候可以用打圈手法輕柔按摩大約30秒,重點加強T字位置同髮線邊緣呢啲容易殘留化妝品嘅位置,之後用清水徹底沖洗乾淨。

For the second cleanse after removing makeup, choose a gentle formula that won't leave skin feeling tight — BARR Centella Calming Gel Cleanser contains centella asiatica extract, cleansing while helping maintain skin comfort. Massage gently in circular motions for about 30 seconds, paying extra attention to the T-zone and hairline where makeup tends to linger, then rinse thoroughly with water.

卸妝後護膚3個要點

• 清潔之後,皮膚可能會比平時乾,建議盡快進行後續保濕步驟,唔好拖太耐。
• 避免用過熱嘅水沖洗,溫水已經足夠帶走殘留,過熱嘅水反而容易令皮膚乾燥。
• 如果當日化咗濃妝(例如眼線、睫毛膏),眼部可以用專用嘅眼唇卸妝產品處理,避免用力摩擦眼周皮膚。

Three tips for post-makeup skincare: skin may feel a bit drier right after cleansing, so it's best to follow up with moisturising steps soon rather than waiting too long; avoid rinsing with water that's too hot — lukewarm water is enough to remove residue, while hot water can dry skin out further; and if you wore heavier eye makeup (eyeliner, mascara), use a dedicated eye and lip remover and avoid rubbing the eye area too hard.

常見問題 FAQ

• Q: 淡妝都需要雙重潔面嗎?
  A: 淡妝或者只用咗防曬,都建議做雙重潔面,因為防曬產品同樣有機會喺皮膚表面留低殘留,唔淨係濃妝先需要。
  Q: Does light makeup still need double cleansing? A: Yes — even light makeup or just sunscreen can leave residue on skin's surface, so double cleansing isn't only for heavy makeup days.
• Q: 每日雙重潔面會唔會清潔過度?
  A: 只要揀返溫和配方嘅潔面產品,並且冇過度用力摩擦,一般嚟講每日一次嘅雙重潔面(通常喺晚上)係可以接受嘅。
  Q: Won't daily double cleansing be too much for skin? A: As long as you use a gentle cleanser and avoid rubbing too hard, double cleansing once a day (typically in the evening) is generally fine.

卸妝之後,再潔面先算真正清潔完成

卸妝同潔面係兩個唔同嘅步驟,分工唔同,缺一不可。用BARR 積雪草舒緩凝膠潔面乳做好卸妝後嘅第二重清潔,先可以真正為之後嘅護膚步驟打好底。

Makeup removal and cleansing are two distinct steps, each with its own job, and neither should be skipped. Using BARR Centella Calming Gel Cleanser for a thorough second cleanse after removing makeup is what truly sets up the rest of your routine for success.
