 Now that you're using some of these products, wouldn't it be fun to do a home facial
on yourself?  Don't have all the products?  Look under "Monthly Specials" for sales.   (You can do this facial standing in front of the mirror).


Products used:  Limu Facial Cleanser with Orange Oil (vitamin C)
                               Vital Hydrant Toner with Lemon Peel Oil  (vitamin C)
                               AHA Mint Masque with Kiwi and Grape Extract (vitamin C)
                               Complex C Serum (vitamin C)
                               Complex C Moisturizer (vitamin C)
                               Advanced Protection SPF 30

                               Retinol Night Creme (vitamin C) for anti-aging, occasional blemish, sun  
                              spots, discoloration prevention.

Retinol Night Creme was not used in this facial but is a great addition to the vitamin C formulas for added benefits.  For prevention of too much sun and too much free radical exposure, use the Vitamin C Serum and Advanced Protection SPF 30 religiously every morning! 

HERE'S HOW TO DO YOUR FACIAL:
1.  Cleanse:  Remove eye make-up with Gentle Eye Make-Up Remover.  Soak flat cotton pad and gently move across the eye, letting the liquid soak into the lash.

2.  Second Cleanse:  Apply a nickel-sized amount of Limu Facial Cleanser.  This cleanser is good to massage with a circular motion over forehead, temples, cheeks, chin, and neck area.  Completely remove with damp, warm cloth.

3.  To soothe the skin, use Vital Hydrant Toner all over the face and neck.  Remove any excess with cool cloth or cotton pad.  Let dry.

4.  Apply the Complex C Serum all over the face and the neck area. This will hydrate, calm and condition the surface of the skin.  When masque is applied, this will be the perfect layer of antioxidant vitamin C boost! Give it a chance to soak in.

5.  Apply the AHA Mint Masque all over the face and neck area and let set for 5 to 10 minutes.
     For extra hydration:  Adding a thick layer (dime in consistency) of this masque will give you more hydration. Remove with damp cloth.
     To tone and tighten:  For a tight and toned feel, apply a thin (brushed) layer. Remove with a wet sponge first to loosen the clay base, and then remove with a damp cloth.

6.  Spritz face to refresh and hydrate with Ginseng Mineral Toner.

7.  After the skin is mostly dry, apply the Complex C Serum for oily to combination skin, or Vitamin C Moisturizer for normal to dry skin types.

8.  As a last step, apply Advanced Protection SPF 30 for protection if going outside.



Remember:  Facial procedures don't replace daily skin care prevention!
