Are You Double Cleansing? Here’s Why You Should

With the temperature getting cooler every day, a lot of things have to change about your beauty care. While adjusting things, you have to pay close attention to how you care for your skin. While you have to be careful with the heat in summer, the dry air that’s typical of autumn can have negative effects on Black skin. One way you can keep your skin healthy without drying it out is by adding double cleansing to your routine.  What is Double Cleansing?
