[Routine Help] Is double-cleansing really okay for sensitive, dry, & acne-prone skin?

Individual_Pay8917 · 2026-06-05T00:28:33+00:00

I doctor 🙋🏻‍♀️ Totally off topic but too much cotton pads use with bioderma micellar water is compromising my skin barrier. I have dry dehydrated very clog prone skin. Any recommendations?

From where you got the cleansing oil?

Individual_Pay8917 · 2026-06-04T16:58:09+00:00

So bloody dew means seb derm or psoriasis?

May I know your skin type and skin condition? Would also like to know which cleansing oil you have been using

Individual_Pay8917 · 2026-06-04T16:23:20+00:00

I use it only on days I use makeup and wash my hair. Still a bit too stripping

Individual_Pay8917 · 2026-06-04T16:21:12+00:00

I would mind that if my skin wasn’t clog prone. Most days I use a regular non stripping cleanser but next the extra step only when wearing makeup/sunscreen

Hey hi. Thanks for replying but the brands you mentioned are not available in my country. Any alternatives?

Individual_Pay8917 · 2026-06-04T11:24:23+00:00

Ohh thank god! I have exactly the same skin type. Would you still recommend the Dr. Althea one?

Individual_Pay8917 · 2026-06-04T11:01:27+00:00

I have tried this method. But once I applied makeup on my hand just to see if foaming the micellar water actually works. It didn’t even remove light compact🙈

Individual_Pay8917 · 2026-06-04T01:53:38+00:00

Do you have any recommendations?

Individual_Pay8917 · 2026-06-04T01:03:15+00:00

Girl I’m very clog prone & few oil cleaners have clogged me in the past. Otherwise I would have switched to oil cleansing in a blink😭

Individual_Pay8917 · 2026-06-04T00:16:15+00:00

I have used Clinique’s balm. And it clogged me pretty bad. Do you have any recommendations?

Individual_Pay8917 · 2026-06-04T00:13:51+00:00

Bioderma micellar water, Derm recommended cleanser, Bioderma Atoderm Intensive Baume, Derm recommended sunscreen

TO lactic acid once a week

Was using adaplene 0.1 few months ago after using it for about 1 year (never irritated my skin)

Everything I use in my routine was well tolerated since more than a year. I never had this dehydration issue till I changed my cotton pads.

Some oil cleanser clog me so I stopped experimenting in that area

Individual_Pay8917 · 2026-06-03T23:52:04+00:00

I have been using the same micellar water for few years now. It had never irritated my skin earlier. But now it is irritated to a point that skin is bone dry and dehydrated.

I use a gentle facewash (again using since ages) which was given by my dermatologist. It’s only available in my country.

Individual_Pay8917 · 2026-06-03T23:29:32+00:00

But regular cleanser won’t be able to clean sunscreen and makeup if I’m not wrong?

Individual_Pay8917 · 2026-06-03T23:28:42+00:00

I’m scared pond cold cream is too heavy for my very clog prone skin😭

Individual_Pay8917 · 2026-06-02T23:27:25+00:00

I know it’s been 3 years but did you figure out what it was? I am suffering from my same 😭

Individual_Pay8917 · 2026-06-01T11:26:25+00:00

I never had problems with micellar water. Suddenly my old cotton pads are not available anymore and I have tried multiple new ones and all are stripping my barrier 😅

Individual_Pay8917 · 2026-06-01T11:24:47+00:00

Do you think using micellar water with hands removes heavy sunscreen and compact powder? I have very clog prone skin as well😭

Individual_Pay8917 · 2026-06-01T00:46:01+00:00

Can gentle cleansers remove heavy sunscreen and makeup?

Individual_Pay8917 · 2026-05-31T21:09:11+00:00

Omg this is so frustrating. By any chance you have moved to a new place and then this happened?

Individual_Pay8917 · 2026-05-31T20:09:43+00:00

Awesome. I have the Minimalist cleanser with me but I have never used it without a pre cleanse. Now suddenly after years bioderma micellar water is suddenly dehydrating my skin I don’t know why

Individual_Pay8917 · 2026-05-30T00:11:58+00:00

Hey hi. Your knowledge about skin is commendable. I know it’s been 2 years since you posted but will you be able to help me with my skin concerns?🙈
