Double Cleansing in Morocco: the SKIN1004 Centella Method
Double cleansing explained: cleansing oil, then foam, with the SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella duo at 350 MAD in Morocco. Method, who it suits, FAQ.
Double cleansing is the first step of Korean skincare, and the one that changes how well the rest of your routine works. The idea: an oil first, a foaming cleanser second. At MYF, the SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella duo brings both together, a 200 ml cleansing oil and a 125 ml foam, for 350 MAD.
This guide explains what double cleansing is, why it makes sense in the Moroccan climate, how to do it step by step and who it is for.
What is double cleansing?
A single cleanser struggles to remove everything. Double cleansing splits the job into two steps:
- A cleansing oil, on dry skin, that dissolves the oily stuff: makeup, sunscreen and excess sebum.
- A foaming cleanser, on wet skin, that purifies pores and removes what is left.
Oil dissolves oil: that is why the oil goes first. The foam then finishes the job on skin that is already free of the bulk.
Why it is useful in Morocco
In Morocco, sunscreen should be daily for much of the year, and that is exactly what a single cleanser struggles to remove. Add heat, sweat and end-of-day sebum: by evening, your skin has a lot to clear. An oil step first prepares the ground for everything that follows, from serum to cream.
The SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella duo
The set brings both steps together around one ingredient: Madagascar centella.
Light Cleansing Oil (200 ml) With jojoba, olive and sunflower oils, it dissolves makeup, sunscreen and excess sebum, then emulsifies with water and rinses off without a greasy film.
Ampoule Foam (125 ml) pH-balanced, it gently purifies pores while soothing and preserving hydration.
The duo is made for all skin types, including sensitive, and is listed as unisex.
How to double cleanse, step by step
Step 1: the oil, on dry skin
- Dry face, dry hands.
- Massage the oil over your face in circular motions, focusing where there is makeup or sunscreen.
- Add a little water: the oil emulsifies and turns milky.
- Rinse with lukewarm water.
Step 2: the foam, on wet skin
- Lather the Ampoule Foam between wet palms.
- Massage over your face.
- Rinse.
Then carry on with your usual routine: toner, serum, cream.
Dry hands, really
The oil goes on a dry face with dry hands. If water comes in too early, the oil emulsifies before it has dissolved your makeup and sunscreen.
Morning or evening?
The full double cleanse is most useful in the evening, when there is sunscreen, makeup and the day's sebum to remove. In the morning, the foam alone is usually enough. If your skin feels tight, cut back on frequency rather than adding steps.
What to pair it with
- For a full Korean routine, Dr. Althea 345 Relief Cream goes last, after cleansing and toner. It contains centella too.
- For oily, blemish-prone skin, the evening double cleanse fits into our oily skin routine, before the niacinamide serum.
- With an exfoliant such as The Ordinary's glycolic toner, double cleanse first, then pat your face dry.
Patch test first
As with any new product, test on a small area before first use and stop if you notice redness or irritation. If a skin problem persists, see a dermatologist.
