We are talking about the new Lancôme cleansers in the Absolue line. This word is translated from French as “perfect, absolute.” It remains to figure out what this means, if we talk about cleansing the skin.
Why Skin Should Be Cleansed Properly
Many good articles have been written about skin cleansing. And each of them says that it is necessary to cleanse the skin in order to:
wash off makeup;
remove excess sebum;
cleanse the pores of particles of dust and dirt that settle on the face.
Why is it so important? Sebum, mixed with impurities and makeup residues, provokes the growth of bacteria, increases the sensitivity of the epidermis and reduces the effectiveness of cosmetics, interferes with skin renewal and deprives it of radiance. Therefore, there is no way to do without cleansing.

Benefits of Lancôme Absolue cleansers
With new products for cleansing, the process becomes even more pleasant.
The Absolue Lancôme line has been expanded with two new cleansers:
gel-oil for removing make-up and cleansing the skin of the face;
make-up remover and face cleanser.
They gently remove impurities, cleanse the face of makeup (gel-oil can easily cope with waterproof), restore the skin and give it moisture. At the same time, they act extremely delicately. Immediately after application, the skin becomes radiant and tender. It is important that both novelties can be used by people with sensitive and problematic skin.
And, of course, one cannot fail to note the comfortable texture, delicate aroma, beautiful bottle – all this turns the cleansing stage into a pleasant procedure in every sense, which also brings aesthetic pleasure.

Step-by-step instructions for cleansing the skin of the face
When cleansing the skin, do not neglect any step.
You can read more about how to properly cleanse your skin here. We will once again recall the basic rules for phased cleansing with these two means.
Make-up Removal
Remove makeup with a special eye makeup remover.
Washing
On wet skin, apply a small amount of makeup remover and cleanser. Gel oil can be applied to dry skin. Massage your face in circular motions along the massage lines. The cleansing gel transforms into a light foam in the process, and the oil gel transforms into a luxurious milky oil.
Toning
Rinse thoroughly and continue your skincare routine by finishing with a tonic, followed by a moisturizer with SPF (morning) or night cream/cream mask (evening).
