Many of us are dreaming of having perfectly smooth and glowing skin, but finding an effective skincare routine can be pretty difficult. However, there are some universal rules that can work on every skin type and one of them is the latest cleansing method called the 60-second rule.
This game-changing rule for washing your face comes from the esthetician Nayamka Roberts-Smith. She advised her Twitter followers to wash their face for 60 seconds straight, in order to let all the ingredients penetrate the skin and do their magic.
“Makeup, dirt, and oil are a lot more difficult to remove from the skin most people realize,” Roberts-Smith said in an interview with Cosmo. “So not only do you want to give the cleanser a chance to break down and dissolve products and grime, but taking 60 seconds also makes you pay attention to your skin and what you’re doing—like remembering to cleanse around the edges of your nose, under your chin, and around your hairline.”
Even though her method sounds pretty basic and obvious, just think about how long you actually clean and wash your face before going to bed. Roberts-Smith claims that most people wash their face for 15 seconds, which is not as nearly as long as we should.
Anyways, the 60-second rule is going viral now and many devotees who followed it for a month say it actually works! This means it definitely worth a try.
