Normal skin.
MORNING SKIN CARE RITUAL: Cleansing Cream, Facial Toner and Quince Day Cream. Coverstick if needed for occasional pimples.
EVENING SKIN CARE RITUAL: Cleansing Balm for light make-up or Soothing Cleansing Milk with medium to heavy make-up. If you don’t use make-up cleanse with your Cleansing Cream. We recommend a double cleanse if you use make-up, once to remove the make-up, dirt and dust your skin picks up during the day and a secondary cleanse to cleanse your skin, use either Cleansing Cream or Cleansing Balm for your second cleanse. Follow with Facial Toner and Night Serum.
For a maturing skin use Regenerating Serum 40+ or Regenerating Intensive Night Serum 50-55+ instead.
Gentle, effective cleansing and a commitment to daily skin care rituals are the first steps towards healthy and radiant skin.
1. We recommend Cleansing Cream, which is not a make-up remover, but it is a deep cleanser which is ideal in the morning, because overnight your skin has been busy as an elimination organ, that’s why you often wake up to a new pimple, and skin also does its regeneration work overnight. Watch the Cleansing Cream application video because you use it a bit differently than what you may be used to.
Cleansing Cream Application: Mix around 1-2cm with water to make a creamy emulsion between the palms of your hands. Then ‘press and roll’ it onto your skin, moving from centre to outwards, in the direction of your lymph and repeat 2-3 times. This technique creates a suction type effect and almond meal is adept at binding to sebum and impurities.
2. Our Facial Toner is used by closing your eyes and misting directly onto your skin, like a refreshing spritz of morning dew with a comforting herbal aroma. It contains witch hazel and anthyllis.
3. We generally recommend Quince Day Cream for a normal to skin, which may also experience sensitivities. Quince seeds help your skin to retain moisture and quince wax protects your skin while not being occlusive to your skin. It’s soothing and cooling, and it’s a favourite moisturiser for guys too. We also recommend Quince Day Cream as an ideal moisturiser for a ‘city-stressed skin’ because it’s hydrating and protecting in an air conditioned environment. Place around a pea size into the palm of your hand, warm it between both palms and then apply to your skin, which is still moist from Facial Toner.
TIPS:
Many of our customers who prefer to use Quince Day Cream in the warmer months, change to Rose Day Cream in the cooler months when a more rich moisturiser is needed.
If you get an occasional pimple then Coverstick is your must-have pimple product. Apply as soon as you see a pimple and reapply regularly.
If you use make-up, use a clean beauty Foundation. Alternatively mix a little Translucent Bronzing Tint with your Quince Day Cream.
Extra Care: We highly recommend once a week a Clarifying Steam Bath in your hand hot basin water with Organic Cotton Compress Cloth to soften pores, followed by Clarifying Clay Mask to further deep cleanse, remove impurities and provide gentle exfoliation. Once dry the Clay Mask is removed efficiently by re-moistening and wiping away with Cleansing Sponge. Ideally follow-up with Revitalising Mask which benefits all skin conditions, or Hydrating Cream Mask if your skin is feeling a little dry, perhaps in winter.
