Re: Is it possible to rinse your face too much when cleansing?

I don't know -- that's why I was asking... I thought maybe by rinsing and rinsing I might be stripping my skin.

If you have hard water, how do you know?  I mean, we have city water and I would guess it's all the same???  Beats me!!!

I make sure to rinse the shampoo out of my hair a lot but didn't know if this applied to face as well.

I think that sounds like good advice.  I can't even stand to take hot showers the way I used to.

I use gentle cleansers, such as CeraVe.  I break out from the rosacea so I guess the extra rinsing comes from my fear of not getting everything off my face and causing more breakouts.

I would disagree. Philosophy products have a ton of chemicals, coloring agents and perfumes. Find a CLEAN products especially since you have a skin condition.

I hadn't thought of that but it makes a lot of sense and I will try that!

I try and not use any extreme temps to the water.  My face usually just feels clean but sometimes feels a bit parched.  I do use gentle cleansers, such as CeraVe.

I am confused on these toner things.  I defintely don't need anything to dry my skin out. And don't want anything to clog my pores more.  So, never know if a toner is a good thing for my skin or not, so I opt for not using one.
