GRITTING METHOD
This is one of the best routine untuk korang deep cleansing your pores. Buat routine ni at least 1-2x seminggu, nescaya your pores will be cleaner, minimize & it will reduce your clogged pores.
Kenapa nama dia GRITTING METHOD? Sebab segala daki (read : sel kulit mati), oil & dirts kat dalam pores kita tu kita panggil 'grit'. Basically ni proses untuk bersihkan pori, reduce sebaceous filaments atau SF (yes, yang kat hidung tu sebenarnya SF bukan blackhead) and buat kulit rasa lembut, less menggerutu/kasar especially area hidung.
Method ni boleh buat malam atau siang, terpulang. As long as before you start tu, your skin dalam keadaan bersih tanpa mekap atau watsoeva. So, kalau your skin ada makeup ke sunscreen ke excess sebum ke, wipe off dulu semua tu guna micellar/cleansing water, bilas then baru start okay?
Steps :
1. BHA EXFOLIATING LIQUID
Tak kesah lah nak pakai Paula's Choice punya BHA ke The Ordinary 2% Salicylic Acid ke or any other BHA chemical exfoliant will do. Kenapa kena guna BHA? BHA ni penetrate into pores, so basically dia exfoliate dalam pores kita.
It means dia boleh clear kan oil & dirts yang tersumbat dalam pori. So senang lah clay mask nak buat kerja nanti. Apply BHA on clean face and let it stay for 20 minutes. Takyah bilas. For dry skin, korang apply BHA tu kat area yang bermasalah je sebab BHA ni drying. So maybe you boleh apply kat area hidung & dagu je.
Atau pun you guys boleh ganti BHA step ni dengan FACE STEAMING. Face steaming ni yang guna wap panas untuk loosen up gunks in the pores. For beginners atau yang takde BHA, boleh try buat cara ni.
2. 2nd step : CLAY MASK
Just like BHA exfoliant tadi, any clay mask will do. For dry skin korang boleh pakai clay mask yang tak berapa strong sangat contoh macam loreal pure clay, innisfree color clay mask or freeman clay mask.
Without washing your face, apply clay mask for 10 minutes. Well, basically ikut lah instruction kat clay mask korang tu but it's recommmended for you to wear it not more than 10 minutes. Clay mask ni akan suck out oil & dirts yang tersumbat dalam pores korang.
Extra tips : jangan pakai clay mask sampai dia kering merekah, agak agak dah separa kering (layer luar dah kering tapi layer dalam still lembab), dah boleh bilas dah.
3. OIL-BASED CLEANSER
So lepas dah cuci clay mask tadi, apply oil-based cleanser tak kesah lah cleansing oil or cleansing balm, on your dry face. Ni kena pakai time muka kering ye, tak payah basah kan muka cam pakai cleanser biasa tu. Let it stay around 15 mins pastu urut urut, then emulsify, pastu bilas bersih bersih atau remove guna kain microfober yang lembab.
Time urut muka tu maybe korang akan rasa cam ada grits keluar from your pores tapi syiro takde pun jadi camtu. So it depends lah. Jangan lah kecewa pulak kalau takde rasa any grits ke apa. FYI, grits tu rupa lebih kurang cam daki tu π
4. LOW PH/MILD CLEANSER
Lepas settle bilas cleansing oil bersih bersih, just proceed with your regular cleanser & skincare routine. It is recomended for you guys untuk pakai cleanser yang mild dan tak mengeringkan kulit sebab bha & clay mask tadi tu can be drying.
5. PROCEED WITH YOUR REGULAR SKINCARE ROUTINE
Lepas dah bilas semua benda, boleh lah teruskan pakai dengan toner, essence/ serum (kalau ada), moisturizer segala. Make sure you guys hydrate & moisturize well your skin. Boleh lah nak pakai sheet mask ke or nak buat 7 layers method ke, terpulang. Sebab skincare routine kena well balanced baru kulit sihat πͺ
