Guidance for Unstable Skin

Our experience is that people apply far too much and too often to their skin. The result is chronic skin inflammation. This in turn aggravates the look of aging and can even become a serious medical problem. Adding another product, any product, will not help. Set aside your products – the first step.

Focus on simple cleansing, nothing else. PURITY and REVIVE and SENSITIVE CLEANSER will all help to normalize your skin activity. If you need to choose just one, select PURITY.

Vary your cleansers, have three at least as your skin stabilizes. Rotate through these during the week. Restrict your leave-ons. Avoid the habit of a routine of moisturizers and serums and sunscreens – this will age and weaken your skin. Topical products are NOT skin food. They alter skin metabolism and in repeated frequent applications will do the exact opposite of what you want.

It will take about a month for skin to stabilize. You may then want to strengthen it by prompting, not saturating, your skin with RETINOL 0.5 DROPS applied 2x per week for a month. Then set that aside and apply 302 DROPS 3x per week for a month. Set that aside and choose VITAMIN C – 12.5 DROPS 2x per week for a month. Then return to RETINOL 0.5 DROPS. This sequence will go a long way to improving your skin’s resilience, turgor and brightness. Spread each of those products with ARRIVE.

For sagging skin, choose a good microcurrent device and use 3x per week. It will take weeks and months but the improvement is often dramatic. Stick with it but don’t overdo. You are stimulating skin muscles and they need recovery time.

For inflamed, acneic skin, set aside your products and rely solely on PURITY and after skin stabilizes you may introduce and alternate between SULFUR CLEANSER and REVIVE during the week.

Unlike the past, today’s products are far more intelligent in their formulation targeting. It takes little to achieve much. Less is best is your guiding principle.
