Step 1 – Cleanse
Why? - Cleansing removes the top layer of dead cells, oil, perspirations and pollution. If your skin is not cleansed properly it becomes dull and flaky and oil glands block up with dirt and cellular waste, causing breakouts and congestion. Get the right Cleanser for your skin type.
How? - Gently press the face with a warm soft cloth to soften and prepare the skin for cleansing. Shake cleanser well before use. Massage one or two pumps of cleanser into your face and neck. Remove with a damp cloth and plenty of water. If wearing make-up, a second cleanse is necessary. (First one to remove makeup, the second to cleanse the skin.) (180 applications per bottle@ 3 pumps per application.)
Step 2 – Exfoliate
Why? - A build up of dead skin cells causes a rough and dull appearance. Exfoliating the top layers of dehydrated cells promotes a youthful, glowing skin. There are 2 Types of Exfoliants.
How? - Squeeze a small amount of exfoliant onto fingertips and GENTLY massage onto damp skin using a small circular motion, paying particular attention to T-zone if necessary. (25 applications @ 1 teaspoon per application)
Step 3 – Mask
Why? - While regular cleansing removes surface impurities, clay based masks will actually draw toxins from within the skin so they can be washed away. Clay firms, tones and refines the skin, promoting a smooth, supple and clear complexion. Clay remineralises and rebalances the skin. Masks must be followed by Skin Conditioner and Moisturizer to prevent dehydration. Get the right Mask for your skin type.
How? - Make a smooth pasted by stirring 1 teaspoon of purified water with 1 heaped teaspoon of mask powder in a glass bowl (or jar lid). Smooth a generous amount onto face and neck. Lie down with your feet up and relax for 10-15 minutes, until mask in almost dry. Rinse off with plenty of tepid water and a soft cloth. (20 applications @ 1 teaspoon per application.)
Step 4 – Skin Brightener
Why? - To restore and protect the skin’s acid mantle, lighten and brighten the complexion, improve photo damaged skin, exfoliate dead skin cells for a smoother, less wrinkled appearance, help break down impurities, whilst bringing moisture, clarity and vitality to the skin.
How? - Dispense 2 to 3 pumps of Probiotic Skin Brightener onto a cotton wool ball (or your palm) and sweep it gently over the face, throat and décolletage, avoiding getting into the eyes. (200 applications @ 3 pumps per application.)
Step 5 – Skin Conditioner
Why? - Conditioning is a vital step in the Miessence skincare regime. Conditioning has a two fold purpose: firstly, to fee the skin with nutrients in the water-soluble botanicals, organic herbs and essential oils, and secondly, to provide a hydrations base for the moisturizer to lock in. Get the right Skin Conditioner for your skin type.
How? - On clean moist skin, massage 2 to 3 pumps of conditioner gently onto face, throat and décolleté. IMPORTANT – do not let your skin dry before applying the moisturizer. Apply moisturizer to moist skin (200 applications @ 3 pumps per application)
Step 6 – Treatment Gels
Why? - Gels are intense concentrations of botanical extracts for special skin requirements.
Step 7 – Ambrosia Essence – Ultra Rejuvenation Treatment
Why? - To restore ageless beauty, rejuvenate the complexion and renew the youth in your skin. Ambrosia Essence is a skin perfector! An ultra rejuvenation treatment. Use daily to revive and restore your complexion. Can be used on it own as a treatment or as a serum, over Skin Conditioner and under Moisturizer for a super-intense nourishing booster. Day and/or night.
How? - Use the dropper to pump a few drops of the oil onto your fingertips and massage into the affected area until completely absorbed. (90 applications @ 5 drops per application.)
Step 8 – Moisturize
Why? - This step creates a protective barrier against free radical and moisture loss (one of the main causes of wrinkles). The special ingredients in our unique organic base have lasting effects on skin hydration and smoothness. Get the right Moisturizer for your skin type.
How? - Apply one to two pumps of your moisturizer to the palm of your hand and warm to skin temperature. Pat and press gently onto your face, throat and décolleté. (130 applications @ 2 pumps per application.)
Step 9 Serums
Why? - Use Rejuvenessence Facial Serum daily in extreme heat, cold, or windy conditions to protect the skin and nightly, to help regenerate and revitalize the complexion. Serums lock in hydration and intensively moisturize the skin. Use Firming Eye and Neck Serum to smooth, tone and firm the appearance of the skin around the eyes and neck.
How? - To use the Firming Eye and Neck Serum, pump a few drops into the palm of the hand, then using one finger, pat and smooth around the total eye area (from outer to inner eye), then gently pat and press remainder of concentrate onto throat and décolleté.
To use the Rejuvenessence Facial Serum, pump a few drops into the palm of the hand, warm to skin temperature, then gently pat and press onto your face, throat and décolleté. Only use this if the skin is extra dry. (200 applications @ 1 pump per application.)
Step 10 – Hydrate
Why? - In Eastern traditions, the aroma of the Thousand-Petalled Rose promotes strength and vitality and enhances harmony and balance. Saturated with water-soluble botanicals present in the petals, rosewater has many uses. With the Rose Monsoon Hydrating Mist, spray over make-up for a dewy complexion. Perfect for rehydrating and invigorating your complexion in air-conditioned environments such as offices and aircraft.
How? - Holding the bottle at arm’s length, spray a gentle mist around the face to cleanse the aura, calm the soul and rehydrate the complexion. (100 applications @ 3 pumps per application.)
