Do you need the 4:2:4 cleansing rule with turmeric soap?

No, you do not need the 4:2:4 cleansing rule to use turmeric soap. A gentle routine that follows your product directions can be much simpler.

What is the 4:2:4 rule?

It is a cleansing trend based on timed steps. You do not need to follow a social media timer just because you use a soap bar. The important thing is choosing a routine that works for your skin and using each product as directed.

Try a simple Sea Essence cleanse

Our Turmeric + Kojic Acid Sea Moss Soap combines turmeric, kojic acid, liquorice root and sea moss in a 150g face and body bar. Select Turmeric on the soap page for this blend.

  1. Patch test before first use.
  2. Wet the bar and make a lather between your hands.
  3. Massage gently over wet skin, avoiding your eyes.
  4. Follow the product directions: leave the lather on for two minutes, then rinse thoroughly.
  5. Follow with moisturiser and broad-spectrum SPF.

If you need a separate product to remove makeup, follow its directions too. Stop using any product that irritates your skin.
