How to remove makeup with sun protection cream?

At the end of the day, we want to deeply cleanse the skin... including the most layers of sunscreen applied.

Sunscreen is formulated to spread over the surface of the skin, forming a protective film to absorb UV radiation before it reaches the viable epidermis. Unlike active ingredients like vitamin C and retinol, you don't want sunscreen UV filters to penetrate your skin. Absorption of UV filters into the skin results in reduced sun protection, potential skin irritation. To minimize penetration, sunscreens often contain film formers, polymers and sticky coatings, which also make them a bit more difficult to wash off.

Today's sunscreens are made for staying power. Because they are usually oil-based, cleansing oils work very well at breaking down sunscreens.

Try double cleansing:

If you're not yet a fan of double cleansing, now might be a good time to give it a try. It's exactly what it sounds like: makeup removal using two cleansers. First, an oil-based cream or cleanser is usually used, followed by a water-based one. Deep cleansing will take care of potential dirt, oil and sweat that can get trapped under many layers of sunscreen.

Recommendation from the #wow team: SKIN1004 MADAGASCAR CENTELLA LIGHT CLEANSING OIL - the light, multifunctional cleanser completely removes make-up and impurities from the skin, while providing extra nourishment. MCT oil derived from coconut combined with cica (centella asiatica) extract, as well as six types of botanical oils provide a refreshing, soothing and pore-tightening finish.

Another bonus? Cleansing oils are gentle and less stripping, so you don't have to worry as much if you overdo it!
