When do you wash your face? In the shower or when you brush your teeth? I generally wash my face in the shower, howsoever late that may be. Its very rare that I wash my face first thing in the morning. But, it is supposed to be a good routine to wash your face first thing in the morning to remove all the oil accumulated at night as well as to remove the dead cells which have been accumulated when the skin repairs itself. Also, scrubbing in the morning is said to be extremely beneficial to remove the dead skin cells and reveal glowing skin. So, when do you wash your face?

Shalini Srivastava says
I generally splash water, do not use face wash as I have dry skin, do you think washing it with cleanser would be a good idea?
all that i know says
hi shalini, i think u shud definitely opt for a good cleanser specifically targeted for dry skin or all skin types….
Swati Murti says
hmmm…I woukd say using cleanser one in the morning is definitely a good idea whenever you use it – either in shower or right along brushing. I would vote for shower 😀
Shalini Srivastava says
Okie I will … <3
Rae says
Hmmm. I wash my face same as you. 😀
Swati Murti says
yeah, I feel incomplete and dirty if I don’t wash my face in the shower 😀
gautami tripathy says
How can anyone NOT wash their face first thing in the morning? It is unthinkable!
Swati Murti says
hi Gautami…some people are used to washing their faces while having bath..they don’t exactly skip it all together 😀
Simran says
I wash my facewith cold water every morning as its must for me, because night i apply kanti lep, after washin frm water i apply green gram powder and start brushin my teeth for 10-15 mins..later scrub it…wat you think abt this routine,?
Swati Murti says
hmmm…that’s I guess a good routine Simran 🙂 green gram really cleanses the face well 🙂 but, what you do in the shower then??? its just that I feel unclean if I don’t wash my face in the shower!!!
Divine Blush says
I use to cleanse my face with my khadi cream cleanser for a minute then after brushing my teeth i ll wash my face. if possible i will also apply toner..

swati, oriflame’s essentials 3 in 1 cleanser has been doing wonders for my skin. i am using it for the past 1 year though there have been new introductions from oriflame every now and then. since i am also an amway and avon consultant, if i am stuck with this cleanser then that itself should speak volumes about this product. now my 14yr old daughter also uses this occassionally.
it comes as a 150ml pack fair enough to go for 2 months. its a pea size that is required for a wash. cleanses the face perfect. the fragrance is too good. mrp is 279.
just incase u want to try, u cud always mail me

tat is a gud idea. i always used to brush my teeth, apply cleanser and then wash off using a face scrub and face wash in one go. ur routine will let the cleanser stay on the wash for some time thus ensuring better results.hmmmm…. i am gonna change my routine to yours. thnx divine blush….
Swati Murti says
oh good 🙂 are btw, any suggestions for a good cleanser???
Swati Murti says
thanks for the oriflame tip 🙂 will surely contact you when I am gonna change…for know, today, only in fact, got lush cleanser 😀 I am just hoping it works really well 🙂
Vanu says
i wash my face every morning after brushing and never noticed dis practice until u mentioned :p
Splashing water on face is a practice and never a planned routine for me
Swati Murti says
yeah, me too, Vanu, I always forget to splash water on my face, especially I need more on my eyes to wake me up 😀
haha…I know some things are so ingrained that we don’t often notice it 🙂
Lancy says
I do wash my face every morning after brushing 😀
Swati Murti says
good idea Lance 😀 you are a great preacher!!! following what you tell.
all that i know says
i wash my face as soon as i brush my teeth. i might brush only after my bed coffee though. and when i wash my face, i add face scrub and face wash together in one go. beleive me, this routine has helped my skin in getting clear a lot
all that i know says
forgot to mention, if i am in a good mood or if i feel the need then i religiously cleanse my face also.
Swati Murti says
hey..what scrub do you use everyday!!! coz, using besan and all are fine but using grains scrub is not exactly a good idea!!
what you meant by thorough cleansing???
Asimah Sadiqah says
I wash my face everytime I wake up. :3
Actually I wash my face around five times a day, hehe. And yes, thoroughly clean up in the shower too.
Swati Murti says
oh my gosh….5 is really too much even for summers. you should really limit it to 3 otherwise your face will become too dry as you get old!!!
Carlos Andrade says
The first thing I do is washing my face.
Swati Murti says
great 🙂
thedelhibride says
I wash it right after brushing. I don’t like doing it in the shower, because the water might get too hot for my face – I’ve heard you should only use cool water on your face.
Swati Murti says
oh yes, you are right about cool water but since its so hot these days, I am taking bath with normal water only so kinda no issues with that 🙂
Wanda says
I wash my face right after brushing. I feel very uncomfortable if I haven’t washed my face and all the dirt and oils from the night are still on.
Swati Murti says
yes, its uncomfortable definitely!!!
Caitlin Clive says
Yes, your skin does get too dry if you wash too much!!! I used to wash twice a day and even then my skin was too dry. I went to a professional and she gave me Glymed Plus gentle wash and now I wash twice a day, everything is clean and moist.
Swati Murti says
yes medicated products are better lot of times 🙂
sarah~stewart says
I wash in the morning sometimes but then again I wash at night sometimes. Which one should I do? In the morning or at night or both??
Swati Murti says
i would suggest both, in morning and at night 🙂
