Great tip for strengthening the skin barrier with a combination of morning water washing and evening cleansing milk

My skin had become noticeably drier and more sensitive recently, so I completely changed my cleansing routine. My skin texture has improved dramatically, so I wanted to share this great tip.
I boldly banished the squeaky-clean alkaline foam cleanser from the bathroom and completely switched to a gentle, lotion-type cleansing milk.
When removing makeup after work, if you apply a generous amount of milk to your bare face and gently roll it, sebum and makeup inside the pores dissolve very gently without friction irritation.
If you rinse thoroughly several times with water, you won't get that typical squeaky clean feeling of a foam cleanser, but a thin moisturizing film remains on the skin like a nourishing cream, so there is absolutely no tightness even when you wipe with a towel.
And when washing my face in the morning, I practice a light water wash by rinsing more than ten times with only lukewarm plain water, without using any soap or cleansing products at all.
Since it protects the natural sebum film my skin produces overnight without forcibly washing it away, I definitely felt less dryness from within, even when I was under the air conditioner all day.
At first, I felt uneasy because I wasn't using cleansing oil or foam, and the slippery feeling made me think my face wasn't clean enough. However, I was relieved to see that my skin was very clean with no residue even after checking with a toner.
After spending about a month using this cleansing method that minimizes physical irritation, my thin skin barrier became stronger, and the redness that used to easily flare up during seasonal changes completely disappeared.
If you have thin and dry skin and struggle with flaking even after applying plenty of basic skincare products, I recommend switching your cleanser to a milk type starting tonight.
I realized for sure on my own skin this time that a cleansing habit that prevents moisture from being lost at the sink is a hundred or a thousand times more important than applying expensive nourishing cream.
