• Homecare - Spots (Acne)

Acne is most common on the facial and neck area, however, its is not uncommon to find it on chest and back. There are two types of acne, inflamed and none inflamed. Inflamed acne will appear red and angry and sometimes will be painful to the touch. None inflamed acne will appear as blackheads, whiteheads and milia. None inflamed acne is less serious and has less implications such as scarring.

Examples of spots (acne) include papules (small elevated skin lesion underneath the skin), pustule (same as a papule but contains puss), nodule (inflamed bump larger than the end of your finger and similar to a papule) and cysts (this lesion is even larger, filled with puss and looks like a boil).

MASK. (Morning only) When you apply a mask, your body’s response is to produce fluids that come up and push the mask off. Whether your skin is oily or dry, this excess fluid hydrates the surface cell layers, which are normally less than 10% moisture. The suppler these layers are the healthier functioning the skin is. The fluids also put pressure on the pores to help purge clogged pores. Apply to the face, neck and decollette for 20 minutes and remove with lukewarm water.

CLEANSE. (Evening only) We cleanse the skin to effectively remove make up, surface grime and debris. This enables for a better penetration of products to follow. Apply cleanser to damp skin, work into the skin using circular motions and remove with water & sponges.

TONE. We tone the skin to remove surface oils and debris, leaving the skin clean, soft and well prepared for the application and penetration of treatment products.Apply by spraying the skin lightly all over and blot dry.

HYDRATE. The skin’s internal moisturizing system contains oils (lipids) that hold water (moisture) between the skin cells. Both are needed to restore moisture and keep skin soft, flexible and firm. Without such a balance, the beauty of the skin is impaired. Within our duo-moisture system, the Gels replenish the skin with needed moisture (water) while the creams hold the moisture in. Each of our Gels and Creams are specifically formulated for each skin type, giving just the right balance to the skin. Apply 1-2 pumps to the face, neck and decollette.

MOISTURISE. Apply the recommended moisturiser. Moisturising locks moisture and any treatment products in to the skin increasing hydration levels and protecting the skins barrier. Apply to the face, neck and decollette and gently massage in to the skin.

·         Moisture Replacement Cream for very dry, dry and normal/combination skin.

·         Moisture Balancer for oily and very oily skin.

PROTECT. (Morning Only) It is imperative that you use a good sunscreen every day to protect the skin from the irritating and ageing effects of UV rays. Apply a small amount of sunscreen to the face, neck and decollette on top of the moisturiser. FACT -50% of the UVA rays (Ageing rays) can penetrate through cloud, glass and clothing. This is why sunscreen is important all year round.
