Beauty Trend: 60-Second Rule for Washing Your Face?

Wish to get glowing skin without experimenting with more skincare products? Tired of your futile skincare routine? Looking for an easy way to solve your skin woes? Often, your skincare products are blamed for not giving you the flawless, radiant skin you desire. However, it can also be due to the way you use those products. Try the 60-second rule for washing your face.

For example, only applying moisturizer and not massaging it on your skin might not give you the desired results. Similarly, if you do not let your cleanser stay on your skin for a sufficient time, it might not be able to clean dirt and oil off your face thoroughly. The result? Dull skin and an uneven complexion.

Relax, it is not like you have been cleaning your face all wrong since eons, it is just a faulty skincare practise we might have been following. Understanding and acknowledging this gap in the skincare routine, many dermats and beauty influencers are preferring the 60-second rule for washing your face lately. Do you know about it? Continue to read more.

What is the 60-second rule for washing your face?

As self-explanatory it is, the 60-second rule for washing your face emphasises that instead of washing your face for 15-20 seconds as you are accustomed to, you should wash your face for a full minute.

This beauty trend gained popularity after being tweeted with the hashtag - #60secondrule - by LA-based beautyologist and aesthetician Nayamka Robert-Smith. Robert-Smith encourages her followers to wash their face for a full minute both morning and night as it takes 60 seconds for the product to be efficiently absorbed and begin the magic it is intended to perform.

Who should do it?

The 60-second rule is not exclusive to any skin type, and anyone can follow it. If you have clear skin but are fed up with blackheads, dryness, dullness, and patchy skin, you should give it a try. Washing your face for one minute might give you the soft, blemish-free glow that is usually hidden behind sweat and grime.

Why should you do it?

Simple, to allow your cleanser to work better! Even the best skincare products cannot make a difference to your skin if you do not let them work as they are intended to, in this case, finishing the process even before the active ingredients start working on your skin.

When you wash your face for a full minute, the product gets ample time to penetrate the outer layer of the skin and remove oil (sebum), dirt, and other residue stuck to the skin. Moreover, it also gives you time to pay attention to the edges around the nose, the chin, the hairline, as well as the neck and other parts of the face that you generally neglect.

Does your choice of face cleanser make a difference?

Yes, indeed! When you use a face wash, you allow its ingredients to rest on your skin and be absorbed into the skin cells. Hence, it is super-important that you remain extra careful about what products touch your skin. For example, it is alleged that parabens can mimic estrogen hormones and result in breast cancer. Sounds scary, eh? So why risk it then? Why not choose centuries-old Ayurvedic wisdom combined with the magic of Mother Nature for your skin?

Ayurveda is not just an ancient method to treat illnesses but is also ascience of life'. It holds many secrets to getting the flawless skin you so desire without any of the side-effects.
