Follow these steps to keep your skin firm, radiant, and blemish-free.
- STEP 1 - CLEANSE
- Use a sulphate (sulfate) free facial cleanser to clean, and refresh the skin. If you are oily, or prone to breakouts use a cleanser with salicylic acid or tea tree oil. (CETAPHIL, NEUTROGENA, AVENE, CLEARASIL, DR.BRONNERS)
- STEP 2 - EXFOLIATE
- Exfoliate your skin once to twice a week to remove dead skin cells, and rejuvenate the skin. If you have lots of black heads or blemishes you can mix a teaspoon of dried oatmeal or a mashed strawberry for an exfoliating boost! (ST.IVES, DERMALOGICA, BAXTER OF CALIFORNIA, DERMA E)
- STEP 3 - TONE
- This step is commonly skipped; however, using an alcohol-free toner helps to rebalance the skin's natural PH levels, and calms the skin after your cleansing process. It also helps to clean out any pores and dirt you may have left behind after rinsing your face. (AVENE, NEUTROGENA, PROVINCE APOTHECARY, DERMA E, TEA TREE OIL)
- STEP 4 - TREAT
- This is the best time to use serums, eye creams, and anything with a light texture so it can be easily absorbed into your skin. I use a firming serum, and then my brightening serum so they can penetrate into my skin before my creamier moisturizer. (DERMA E, DR. DENNIS GROSS, AVENE, SHEA MOISTURE)
- STEP 5 - MOISTURIZE
- Hydrate! Hydrate! Hydrate! The fastest way to lines and wrinkles is having dry skin. Your body needs to stay moisturized in order to continue producing natural oils that keep it supple. You should use an SPF (15 or more) moisturizer during the day, and a good moisturizer for your skin type at night. Remember your skin replenishes and repairs itself while you sleep.
