A Face Off, Face-Off

You say,  "taste test?"
I say, "go."

Experimenting is so much fun (without all the scientific mumbo jumbo), which is why when I read recently that it's good to start your nightly face-preening ritual with a warm cloth, I thought, "Ok I'll put it to the test!"

And so begat the Cotton Ball Test.

Night 1: I washed my face as per usual with my "Yes to Carrots" treat of a wet wipe from Target (free of all things bad for your face, and stuffed with only natural goodness). Then I took a cotton ball, some toner and went to town. The result? A dirty cotton ball. Yecch!

Night 2: I start with a warm wash cloth, pad it all over my face, then proceed to use "Yes to Carrots" and get all of the day's grime off. Next step-cotton ball + toner = A cleaner face!

The cotton ball after starting with a warm cloth was not half as dirty as it was the first night without using a wash cloth. Before all you science geeks can push your glasses up your nose and wonder if I did it right, I had the same amount of makeup on both nights-I made sure of it.

That proves it, folks! Starting with a warm wash cloth is better for your skin. It opens the pores and gets the ready to be cleaned.

You say, "warm washcloth?"
I say, "please."
