The face is one of the places which throughout the day is subject to the most amount of dirt and environmental damage.  Therefore it is essential that every morning and every evening you wash your face with a cleansing wash.  This will help to remove excess dirt, debris and oil, some will even help protect against spots or shaving rash.  A good face wash is one which is ph balanced and will not dry out your face, normal soap should never be used on the delicate facial area as it will dry out your skin and can cause reactions such as spots. 

The best way to wash you face is to damp the face with warm water using either hands or flannel and to apply product to the face, the amount varies per product but a general rule is about a 10p piece should be enough for the whole face.  Massage the face wash in with your fingers using circular movements.  When done rinse face with warm water till all of the product is gone, finish with a splash of cold water to help close pores.  Dry face with a clean towel and then either continue by shaving or moisturising your face.
