# Oil Cleanser
The first step is to remove makeup, dissolve any oil, and remove bacteria and other impurities using a cleansing oil. Using an oil cleanser will change your life. It gets rid of makeup and the dust that has accumulated in your face over the period of the day. The oil will literally melt the makeup off your skin, leaving it thoroughly cleansed.
# Water-Based Cleanser
Yes, there are two cleansers involved! Where the first one was an oil cleanser, the second one is a water-based cleanser. This is to make sure that not even a hint of dirt and oil residue remains on your face. It basically makes your face squeaky clean! Clean your oil-cleansed skin with a mild foaming cleanser by applying it in a circular motion with the help of your fingertips.
# Exfoliate
This is a must if you want a smooth looking skin. The microbeads in exfoliators help in removing any dead skin cells. Not only does it make your skin look flawless, but it also helps your makeup to go on much smoother. However, scrubbing your entire face every day is not recommended. Try to focus on the areas that really need it, such as your cheeks and the blackheads on the nose. Ideally, you should be exfoliating your skin 2-3 times a week.
# Essence
When you use two cleansers, it will probably strip all of the oil from your face. Which means that you need to add some of the hydration back into your skin. That’s what an essence is for. While providing your skin with sufficient moisture, it also balances out the PH. Some essences are also especially used to make your skin appear brighter.
# Serums
Serums are usually for addressing certain issues. There are different serums for acne, pigmentation, wrinkles, pore tightening, etc. These are basically to boost your skin to restore it to the best condition that it could be in.
