You are rebuilding the all important skin lipid barrier to protect your skin from drying out and generating wrinkles. With this regimen you are layering your face with all the rich ingredients that are so effective in fighting the signs of aging. This is ideally done with lipid-based serums and contains high concentrations of lipid (fat) soluble vitamins, ceramides, antioxidants, retinol and essential fatty acids. SKIN-BUILDING SERUM: The skin-building phase helps restore skin barrier functions via delivering essential nutrients to the skin. This step does not feel particularly moisturizing and it may leave your skin feeling dry and tingly. This is ideally done with a thin water-consistency serum, rich in ingredients that easily permeate the skin. SKIN-STIMULATING SERUM: The skin-stimulating phase encourages the skin's own collagen-building machinery and repair mechanism to soften the look of lines and wrinkles. When you rinse it off, your face should not feel tight or dry, but rather smooth, soft, and soothed. The purpose of this step is to micropolish your face, not scratch it.
Avoid products that contain large grains of any rough or sharp particles. A good microdermabrasion cream should have a rich texture and contain abrasive particles-aluminum oxide or pumice is ideal-but the particles should be very small. Microdermabrasion Cream: You need this product for additional exfoliation once a week, or twice, if your skin has the tolerance for it. These pads also exfoliate your skin to perfection which is critical if you want flawless skin. Our Advanced Firming Facial Pads are made to these exact specifications. Clinical studies have shown significant collagen-stimulating and skin-thickness-building action at the right glycolic concentration at the right pH levels. Try our glycolic acid peel pads, the Advanced Firming Facial Pads, with a 10 % strength solution. The exfoliating phase also provides one final opportunity to open up clogged pores before you move on to the other phases of your skin care routine. It also removes dead cells on top of your skin, allowing skin care products to transport key ingredients to their destination. Exfoliation stimulates cellular turnover and may improve skin thickness. The exfoliating phase is critical if you want flawless skin. If your skin doesn't feel pulled and dry after you've applied it, it's the right product for you. An effective toner will have a gentle astringency, yet it should leave your face feeling soft and refreshed. Your face should feel fresh, clean, and comfortable, not dry or pulled. You should judge your cleanser based on the condition of your skin after you've washed, rinsed, and dried. However, the key isn't just the ingredients-you rinse them off very quickly-but finding a good cleanser that doesn't leave your skin feeling tight and dry. After cleansing, I recommend using toner to remove the dirt the cleanser missed.ĬLEANSER: The best ingredients to seek out in this product are alpha- and beta-hydroxy acids, which are excellent cleaning agents, and other beneficial additions, such as vitamins C and E. A good cleanser has a pH close to that of the skin and will not dry out your skin. I also do not recommend water-free, leave-on cleansers, which can clog your pores. The cleansing phase is an important first step and I do not recommend using soap.
