Tips for sensitive skin:
- Wash face with warm or tepid water, never hot!
- Always use toner after cleansing, as mineral deposits from hard water can
irritate and dehydrate skin. In addition, invest in a filter for your shower
head to further reduce chemical irritants in water.
- Avoid alcohol and caffeine, which have a diuretic effect which causes skin
cells to lose fluids and essential minerals.
Dry Skin: Skin is dull, lacks oil or moisture. There is no “glow”. Skin may be
flakey, tight looking or lined.

Tips for oily/acne-prone skin:
- Use unscented laundry detergent, as perfumes and dyes can cause skin
irritation
- Avoid scrubbing, as this may cause irritate skin and exacerbate breakout
- Clean cosmetic brushes and sponges weekly (a dab of Clarifying Foaming Wash
will do the trick!)
- Washing twice a day is a must to remove dirt, oil pollution and makeup; oily
skins may benefit from a light midday cleansing as well.

Sunburned skin: thought you put on enough sunscreen but didn’t avoid the burn? Over moisturizing
your skin will trap in heat and keep your skin red longer.
Here’s what to do:
- Cleanser: Cleansing Milk, rinse with tepid water
- Mask: Apply 2 pumps of Advanced Calming Serum to affected skin, then a layer of
Soothing Gel Mask w/ Green Tea that has been chilled in refrigerator. Re-apply
every two hours for 15 minutes, then rinse with cool water
- Toner: Soothing Toner–fill a spray bottle and chill in refrigerator; spray
periodically to soothe, hydrate and cool skin
- Moisturizer: 2 pumps of Anti-Wrinkle CoQ10 Gel followed by light application of
Soothing Azulene Moisture Crème before bed
