Understanding Technique - When It Comes to Your Skin
Learning skin care techniques is the best thing you can do for your face. Advances of science have proved that the skin can be a port of entry for medicines and nutrients. This is the basic principle of the patch delivery system. The most important requirement for delivering nutrition into the skin is to hydrate the stratum corneum. The stratum corneum is the top layer of skin that normally acts as a protective barrier.
To achieve hydration you must apply water to the surface of the skin for ten minutes, fifteen if you are very dry. Do this in the shower or bath, or with a facial steamer. Immediately after hydration is achieved pat dry and apply the serum. The windows of the skin will stay open for about ten minutes and gradually return to normal. During the open time your skin will drink in the nutrition. After the skin has returned to normal remove the remaining Vitalizer from the surface with the Restorative Toner. This important step rebalances the surface pH. Apply a day or night cream to finish.
