MORNINGS

Cleanse
We don't recommend cleansing with a traditional cleanser in the morning, especially if you are break out prone or have a tendency to have dry skin. Reason being is that our skin needs to be balanced to fight off blemishes, and over cleansing can disrupt the acid mantle and skin microbiome. Instead, only use a PH balanced, alcohol-free toner (like our Neroli Clarifying Toner) with a cotton pad to cleanse in the morning.

Mist
After cleansing with a cotton pad, mist on our Neroli Clarifying Toner. It is formulated with willow bark extract, green tea, vitamin C, vitamin B3, thyme hydrosol, neroli hydrosol and immortelle hydrosol - all great ingredients to prevent clogged pores, reduce inflammation, minimize pores, and help repair the skin barrier. Vitamin B3 is also great to help speed up the healing of pigmentation caused by breakouts. This toner is also PH balanced.

Moisturize
Use our Night Clarifying Treatment as your day oil. (We know, the name is misleading - it can be used day and night). This oil is made with a green tea and thyme infusion for break outs, and a powerful anti-inflammatory essential oil blend to alleviate redness (including blue chamomile essential oil). It also contains great anti-aging ingredients like prickly pear seed oil, coQ10, and sea buckthorn - great for keeping skin clear, reducing inflammation, and balancing sebum production.

Another option for a day oil for when your skin is clear but maybe a little dry would be our Rose Nourishing Serum. Made with rosehip oil, pomegranate oil, and coQ10, this oil works great at maintaining a healthy skin barrier and preventing premature aging.

2-3X PER WEEK

For a weekly deep exfoliating treatment (essential for keeping pores clear), use our Hibiscus Exfoliating Mud 2-3x per week. This mask is very gentle to the skin, while offering antibacterial properties and a deep exfoliating experience. Weekly exfoliation is extremely helpful at reducing the occurrence of clogged pores, dry skin and for evening out the complexion.
To use, wet face, gently apply, let sit for 10+ minutes, and then rinse off. This mask is honey based, so you can apply in the shower and rinse off as your last step - easy peasy!

Optional: 1-2x per month, do a facial steam using our Herbal Detoxifying Steam to deeply hydrate and detox the skin. A facial steam is also at clearing the sinuses and the mind.
