Skin Conditions and Regimens
Written by: E. Carls-Lansang
Intended for the utmost benefit of its clients, morning regimen should start with the cleansing of the skin using SkinCeuticals cleanser followed by the toner. Wait for about five (5) minutes for a small amount of antioxidant serum applied to face, neck, and chest to be absorbed by the skin before dosing on other products. A maximum of three (3) drops of SkinCeuticals' Hydrating B5 Gel, Phyto Corrective Gel or the Phyto+ would do wonders in hydrating; lightening and calming the skin [stay away from the eye area]. Moisturizer is a must, but it can be substituted with SkinCeuticals Skin Firming Cream or any of its corrective cream. Generously finish it off with a wide range of SkinCeuticals sunblock 20-30 minutes before exposing self in the sun. As with all other products, strictly follow the instructions that come along in each package.
At the end of the day, before retiring to bed, repeat the cleansing and toning process to freshen the skin. A Clarifying Clay Masque would be helpful if done once a week or twice to be followed by an exfoliator using the "body polish" immediately to allow the skin to replenish. And once again for the purpose of hydrating, lightening, and calming the epidermis, 2-3 drops of those same products that were used in the morning would be appropriate. For the final regimen, a moisturizer or any of the Skinceuticals facial firming cream would rejuvenate the skin overnight to produce an almost flawless skin, add the "Sans Soleil" (sunless tan) if desired. The same routine can be administered in caring for the body.
Various skin conditions affecting people that are prone to acne and/or suffers from rosacea necessitates different SkinCeuticals products. The same is true for those with normal to combination skin, dry skin, oily skin and sensitive skin as well as for the peri-menopausal women who wanted to retain moisture, increase collagen, and enliven the skin. Some of the products offering solutions to these skin problems are the Gentle Cleanser, C E Ferulic, Serum 10, Eye Gel, Eye balm, skin firming cream, phyto corrective gel, antioxidant lip repair, emollience, and hydrating B5 Gel.
