The 10 Step
Regimen: A
Quick Guide
Exfoliation
Time to get polished. Gently massage or
tap in an exfoliant to slough off dead skin
cells and debris. This will get your skin
smooth and ready for applying products. You only
need to do this once or twice a week.
This helps balance your skin’s PH levels
and provides hydration. Tap lightly onto
skin with your fingers, splash, spritz, or
go old school and swab your face with a cotton wool
pad.

Moisturiser
Hydration = dewy, glowing skin. Whatever
formulation works for you. Apply
morning and evening to your face and
neck. It will keep skin protected and hydrated.
Sun Protection
THE best anti-aging product. Apply
morning and as needed. Always the
last step to avoid dilution by other
products.
A combination of a toner and serum they
aim to brighten, aid skin repair and
regenerate cells.
Eye Cream
The skin around your eyes is the most
delicate on your face needing extra
hydration and protection. Use your ring
finger to very gently tap, never rub, eye cream around
the entire orbital bone, avoiding the water line.

Sheet Masks
Have you seen those sheet mask selfies?
Yes, you look like a bad Halloween mask
but this is the time to apply and sit back
and relax. This is a skin-nourishing ritual, so enjoy. You
only need to look like this once or twice a week.

Time for treatment. These are
concentrated essences and are used to
address problem areas like pore-refining,
pigmentation, wrinkles or acne.
Clean and prep your skin to get rid of
makeup, dirt and environmental impurities.
An oil cleanser cleans deep to remove
stubborn or waterproof makeup. Massage it over
your dry face and neck, add a splash of lukewarm
water to lather it up, and massage again, rinsing
everything away.
