Peace be upon you and the mercy of Allah and His blessings.
Ayatollah Khamenei and Ayatollah Sistani (may Allah protect them):
The washing must be done from top to bottom, and it is not correct to do it the other way around. If water does not reach the entire face when poured, it does not prevent you from starting from the top and then washing the bottom. In fact, this method makes it easier to ensure that water reaches the entire face.
May you be successful in all good.
