Cleanser
Apply dime size to damp skin and massage over face and neck. Rinse with warm
water. Cleanse twice at night (especially for acne-prone or oily skin),
1 minute each (2 minutes total). The 1st wash removes excess oil,
dirt, make-up & impurities. The 2nd wash cleanses deep into
pores. Cleanser can be used alone or mixed with a facial scrub. Use A.M. and
P.M.
Exfoliation
Gently polish away dead skin cells to leave your skin feeling smooth. Exfoliation also helps aid in better absorption of products. Apply to clean, damp skin or mix in with your cleanser and gently massage over face and neck. Depending on your skin conditions, use at least once a week. Don’t forget to exfoliate the crease of your nose, temples, and under jaw line!
Chemical
Also known as a peel. This form of exfoliation could include various hydroxy acids (i. E. Lactic Acid, Salicylic Acid, Glycolic Acid), Retinol, or enzymes. Each type of exfoliation contains different properties that improve skin texture, tone, and overall appearance.
Mechanical
This type of exfoliation uses gentle scrubbing beads to loosen dead skin cells and smooth out skin texture. A combination of both mechanical and chemical exfoliation can be a great option for your skin! Ask your esthetician which is best for your skin type!
Toner
This step hydrates, balances and preps skin. Spray evenly over the face and neck used throughout the day to refresh your skin. Do not let the toner dry! Apply serum on damp skin.
Serum
Super concentrated ingredients, depending on the concentration can increase hydration level, firm skin, improve skin texture, clear the skin, and prevent signs of aging. Depending on the serum, it can be used in the morning, and/or at night. Use before moisturizer and after a toner (toner should not dry when applied). Toner, serum, moisturizer.
Mask
Depending on the mask, it can increase hydration, promote firming, reduce sensitivity, deep clean, and/or provide multiple vitamins & antioxidants. Apply a thin layer to a clean face and neck for 10-15 minutes (1-2 times per week). Use a mask after cleansing and exfoliating your skin, but before all other products. After you rinse off the mask, apply the rest of your regimen in the proper order.
Moisturizer
Depending on the mask, it can increase hydration, promote firming, reduce sensitivity, deep clean, and/or provide multiple vitamins & antioxidants. Apply a thin layer to a clean face and neck for 10-15 minutes (1-2 times per week). Use a mask after cleansing and exfoliating your skin, but before all other products.
