What does your skin need?

Dr. Hauschka knows that every person, and every person’s skin, is completely unique. That’s why we don’t categorise skin into rigid types, but respond to individual needs with the best that nature has to offer. Each and every one of our products contains 100% natural ingredients and more than 50 years of research. Which is also somewhat unique.

These guides will help you with your optimum choice of products for your skin condition as it is at this moment and your skin care rituals.

You will find application videos on many of our skin care products on our site.  

Morning Skin Care Ritual

1) COMPRESS & HYDRATE your skin with Organic Cotton Compress Cloth and Bath Essence

2) CLEANSE - Cleansing Cream

Moisten your face with warm water. Place 1-2cms Cleansing Cream in the palm of your hand, mix with a little water to make a soft paste and apply to your face using both hands. Starting at the forehead, ‘press and roll’ (do not scrub) onto your skin working from the top downwards and from the centre outwards. Repeat. Rinse off with warm water, then it’s important to complete cleanse with cold water splashes.

3) TONE - Facial Toner or Clarifying Toner

Close your eyes and mist 2-3 pumps Toner directly onto your skin. It is not to be used with cotton pads like conventional toner.

4) Mature skin only - REVITALISE with Regenerating Serum 

5) MOISTURISE - Day Cream or Clarifying Day Oil

Warm a large pea size of Day Cream between the palms of your hands and apply to skin still moist from Toner, to aid absorption and ensure even and economical application. Clarifying Day Oil use 2-3 drops, Revitalising Day Lotion use 1-2 pumps.

Lose the night cream your skin will thank you for it!

During the night time your skin is regenerating, metabolising and eliminating the day’s waste, one of the skin’s many functions as the largest organ in your body.

  • The night time rhythm of the skin is one of a ‘breathing out’.

  • How do you know this is happening? Because skin disorders such as eczema, shingles, chicken pox or measles are much worse during the night. How often have you woken up in the morning to be greeted by a pimple?

  • There are no environmental factors that you need to protect your skin from while you’re asleep.

  • A night cream, which is usually a heavy, expensive, occlusive substance, impedes your skin’s normal elimination and regeneration night time processes.

  • Dr. Hauschka’s gentle cleansing rituals support our no night cream stance. Our night treatment preparations, Night Serum for all skin conditions or Regenerating Serum to support a maturing skin, embrace regenerating plant extracts held in an aqueous solution. These allow the skin to ‘breathe’ freely and overcome any weaknesses and imbalances. At first our ‘No Night Cream’ guiding principle seems unusual, however within one month (a skin cell cycle) you will need no more convincing, when you wake up to refreshed and revitalised skin!

For our new customers, support your skin in the transition off conventional night cream use with Renewing Night Conditioner, one ampoule a night for a month, then switch to Toner and Night Serum or Regenerating Serum.

Please note: No eye cream use at night either, it’s just likely to give you puffy eyes in the morning. Use your oil-free Night Serum or Regenerating Serum for night time eye care as well as face care.
