I think luke warm water is okay, but not hot, hot water. It might ruin your skin in the long run. I'm not positive about this, but in my opinion, you should just use warm water and maybe face wash with it. =)

Warm, not hot. It should feel good, but not burn your face. After you wash your face with warm water, splash it with cold water to close your pores. Dry your face with a SINGLE use paper towel, not the hand towel people wipe their hands on everyday! It will do you more harm than you think. Apply a good moisturizer afterwards, this will reduce a lot of redness.

Well, skin experts recommend lukewarm water for face washing, but if hot water is doing the trick for you, keep at it. Just don't accidentally scald yourself and make sure you use a good oil-free moisturizer to make up for any dryness you might be causing with the temperature of the water.

Hello
washing your face with walm water is better than hot water, as hot water might damage your skin. Also hot water causes your pores to open so i would advise you splash your face with cold water after to close the pores, because when your pores are open they are prone to getting get clogged and that causes spots.

I wash my face with hot water. I think that it feels better than cold water and I think that it helps your pores too.

I wash my face with very hot water, It makes me feel fresh and clean, but I saw on E "secrets of the stars" that cold water is best.

it's always best to wash your face with very warm water. hot water can cause broken capillaries. it can also dry and damage your skin in the long run. colder water won't clean better, that's true... but hot water is not good either.

No it's better because it opens up your pores to get rid or more oil/dirt.
