The first thing you need to learn if you have decided to use make up, is how to clean your face and not just how to clean it, but how to clean it thoroughly. Applying makeup on an unclean face is not recommended and frankly speaking is a bad idea and habit which if you have, you need to get rid of it urgently.

As simple as face cleaning sounds, you would be surprised at how totally wrong most people get it, I mean are you one of those who just splashes water around your face and think you have got it? Well, as much as that may work for the purposes of getting about, face cleansing involves more than just splashing water on your face and wiping it off.
It is usually recommended that you wash your face with warm water, do not use hot water as this may rupture capillaries in your face leading to red marks in your face. Most importantly however is you should remember to remove any make up you had on previously. Splashing on a bit of water serves to relax your face as you prepare to wash it. You should then apply a cleanser by massaging it on your face gently after which you should wash it off with warm water. For all intents and purposes, especially when you are in a hurry, this is a procedure that ends there.
It is recommended that one should wash his face at the very least twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening before retiring for the night.
