Product usage, Directions & tips...
¨
Wash your face twice in the morning and twice in the evening before bedtime – the first time is
to remove surface debris and the 2nd cleanse is to actually cleanse your skin.
¨ When applying your product – apply the thinnest product
first to the heaviest – ie. Apply your serums under your moisturizer…smallest/thinnest serums in order then apply
your moisturizer and then makeup always last.
¨
Use your lightening products at night as they may cause the skin to become photosensitive to the sunlight.
¨ Always use a sunscreen (apply last) if you are using a lightening
product to protect the skin from photosensitivity and help reduce the reappearance of hyperpigmentation.
¨ Mix up your skin care regimen from time to time. Your
skin has memory. Think of it as your body when working out – you should use weights with some workouts,
jog, swim, etc. This helps keep the body from “getting used to” the same routine therefore
helping to reduce the possibilities of “plateauing”. The same happens with your skin.
This is also why it is excellent to use different forms of exfoliation (Microdermabrasion, chemical peels, physical
scrubs). Keep your skin guessing so it doesn’t “plateau”. This will
give you optimal results and help keep your skin looking it’s best!!
¨
When applying products, always put the cap back on right away, the less oxygen that gets into the product,
the more effective it will be.
¨ If
the product doesn’t come in a pump applicator, be sure to use a spatula to remove the product – your fingers in
the product may cause contamination, therefore reducing the efficacy of your product.
¨ When using a lightening/corrective product, be sure to use
a glycolic brush to apply. For example, if using Rhonda Allison’s Skin Brightening Gel, you will
want to pump a couple times into a glass dappen dish, then dip your glycolic brush into the dappen dish and apply in even
strokes either over your entire face (being sure to avoid the eye area) or just the spots that you would like to reduce the
pigmentation.
¨ And as always,
feel free to email me with any questions you may have regarding your skin.

serious skin conditions, always seek the advice of a dermatologist or physician***
