Step By Step Directions

Use every second evening

In the evening after moisturising, apply a pea-sized amount to moist skin and massage until absorbed. You may also wish to use The Foundation before moisturising if your skin feels comfortable.

Beginners: Follow the 'ease in' method to introduce a skin cell renewal product properly. Apply twice a week only, for the first two weeks of use, until your skin is comfortable and tolerable for more frequent use (building up to every second evening).

NOTE: This formula has a higher oil content designed to provide a smooth application. However, exposure to heat can sometimes cause the oils to separate. A good shake and storing it in the refrigerator should help restore the blend.

NOT suitable during pregnancy.
