Double Cleansing for Indian Skin: Is It Really Necessary?

Double Cleansing for Indian Skin: Is It Really Necessary?


You've probably heard the term double cleansing. But does Indian skin really need two cleansers? Isn’t washing your face once enough? Here’s the truth: with our climate, pollution levels, and skincare habits, double cleansing isn’t just a trend-it’s a game-changer, especially when done with the right product like Sixam’s Double Duty Cleanser.

Pollution, SPF & Makeup: Why One Cleanse Isn’t Enough

In Indian cities, our skin faces an onslaught of dust, humidity, pollution, and layers of SPF or makeup every single day. A single water-based cleanser often isn’t strong enough to break through oil-based impurities like sebum, sunscreen, and makeup. The result? Clogged pores, dull skin, breakouts, and uneven texture.

That’s where double cleansing comes in.

The process starts with an oil-based cleanser to break down stubborn grime, followed by a gentle foaming or gel cleanser to cleanse the skin’s surface. Think of it as cleaning a greasy plate  you wouldn’t wash it with just water, would you?

It’s More Than Clean Skin It’s a Ritual

The key isn’t about adding more steps, but choosing smarter ones and the Double Duty Cleanser brings modern skincare science and traditional cleansing rituals into one soothing, effective experience.
