A BEAUTY fan has confessed she hasn’t washed her face in over a year but she claims her skin has never been better.
The creator who is anti-skincare says she uses nothing but warm water and no soap on her face and people can’t believe she is serious.
Candice shared her routine in a TikTok video online.
She said: “So it’s been over a year since I haven’t washed my face and my skin has never been more clear.”
Candice confessed she used to be very involved in skincare but one day decided to stop.
She said: “I used to be that girl who every morning and every night would wash her face religiously thinking that it would help with my acne.”

“Until one day it occurred to me that that makes literally zero cents because our skin puts all this effort into producing its own natural essential oils.”
Candice said she now believes mainstream skincare is too stripping for her skin.
She said: “But every night before going to bed we strip those away using soap and hormone-disruptive fragrances.”
“So instead I just decided to stop washing my face stop using face wash and let my skin balance its own natural oil.”

“I can now say that it’s been over years since it dropped soap has touched my face and my skin has never been more clear.”
Candice said she uses warm water, a dry brush and beef tallow on her skin every day to keep her skin clean.
Beef tallow is the rendered fat from a cow that’s used for cooking, typically, but it also plays a role in making soap and candles.
The natural beauty fan said: “Instead in the mornings I’ll dry brush like I’m doing right now and then I’ll wash my face with some warm water and apply some beef tallow.”
“Then in the evening I’ll just wash my face with some warm water again and I’ll apply my beef towel serum.”
“I love beef tallow because it’s highly compatible with our skin so it doesn’t clog my pores and it actually deeply nourishes my skin because it’s so nutrient-rich.”
She argued: “If you think about it no one over a hundred years ago was washing their face every day and they all had perfectly clear.”
Candice’s video had racked up over 10,000 views in just a few hours but can’t understand why she would stop washing her face.

Another said: “What a bizarre thing to say.”
