1.Wash your hands first. Is that surprising? It shouldnt be. Your hands are about to come in contact with your face. The first thing you need to do is scrub your hands and be sure that your nails are
clean as well.
2.The next thing that you need to do is to secure your hair either in a hairnet, a shower cap or a headband. Pull your hair away from your face and firmly secure it.
3.Wet your face with warm (not hot) water and apply the soap or facial cleansing product as directed on the packaging. Never use more or less of the product than is recommended.
4.Using only your fingertips (NOT a washcloth), gently massage the cleanser into your face. Use a circular motion and be sure that you go all the way to the hairline.
