The best time to follow the daily routine is after
a shower or bath. This should be done every
day in the morning or at night or both. Let
your body be your guide.
However, it is recommended
that cleansing (Step 1) be done twice a day.

| Step
1. Cleanse |
Cleansing
is essential as it removes old make-up and grease
that have been accumulated during the day. It
will also open up the pores to make them more
receptive to serums and creams.
Follow these instructions for effective
cleansing:
| 1 |
Pour a little face cleansing cream into
the palm of one hand and dab it generously
over the nose, chin, forehead and cheeks—using
two fingers of the other hand. |
| 2
|
Massage the cream into
the skin, starting under the throat, using
a gentle upward motion. |
| 3 |
Continue massaging the cream up to the forehead,
using the fingertips. |
| 4 |
Gently
massage
the
cream
from
the
eyes
to the
nose.
|
| 5 |
Massage cream back
over the chin, which is particularly prone
to blackheads. Use the index finger. |
| 6 |
Remove
the cream from the face with tissue pads
in each hand. Start under the chin and work
over the cheeks and on to the forehead |
We recommend the following
cleansing products:

2. Tone and refresh |
Toning
routine is needed to freshen and energize the
skin. It also restores the acid/ alkali balance
of the skin.
Follow these instructions for effective
toning:
| 1 |
Immediately after cleansing
apply toner to the forehead and cheeks on
a pad of cotton wool |
| 2
|
Apply the toner to the crevices around
the nose. |

the toner
to the
crevices
around
the chin. |
We recommend the following toning products:

|
| Step
3. Firm and lift (Optional for young skin). |
This
step is highly recommended for women over 35.
As the skin loses its elasticity it is important
to fight the aging process by providing extra
nourishment to the skin cells. The products in
this category have a strong anti-aging and lifting
effect and should always be used on a mature skin.
Follow these instructions to firm and
lift skin:
| 1 |
Using
the tips
of the
fingers,
dot the
firming
serum
lightly
all over
the face. |
| 2
|
Press the fingers
of both hands into the center of the forehead
and work the serum slowly outwards. Pat
the serum gently around the eyes but not
directly in the eye area. |
| 3 |
Work the serum around the jaw line, chin
and mouth with the middle fingers of both
hands. |
| 4 |
Massage the serum over
the throat with alternating hands, using
upward strokes from collarbone to chin. |
We recommend the following firming products:
- For all skin types :
- For all skin types with brown spots:
- For sensitive skin:
|
| Step
4. Nourish. |
The
cream not only replaces the water lost from
the skin but also prevents its loss to the surroundings.
It protects the skin against the drying influences
of the environment such as the effects of the
sun, cold and heat. A cream is particularly
helpful for dry skins. Oil free creams can
be used for oily skins.
The cream you select should
suit your skin type. For normal skins, a water-based
cream containing a little oil is suitable.
Sensitive skins and dry skins need creams
that have high oil content.
Tips for moisturizing:
| 1 |
Using the
tips of the fingers, dot the cream
lightly all over the face. |
| 2
|
Press the fingers of both hands into the
center of the forehead and work the serum
slowly outwards. Pat the cream gently
around the eyes but not directly in the eye
area. |
| 3 |
Work the cream
around the jaw line, chin and mouth with
the middle fingers of both hands. |
| 4 |
Massage the cream
over the throat with alternating hands,
using upward strokes from collarbone to
chin. |
We recommend the following creams:
- For all skin types :
- For sensitive skin:
- For dry skin:
