Tips & Recommendations

1. High Performance is best used twice daily especially in the evening as this is when the body rejuvenates the skin.A thin layer all over the face and neck area after cleansing at night will provide the best results.
2. Cleansing and exfoliating prior to applying a moisturizer will help prep the skin and allow the moisturizer to absorb much more effectively.Cleansing should be done twice daily while exfoliation is usually done 2-3 times a week based on skin condition.
3. Always choose a moisturizer that is suitable for your skin type.Dryer skins may need a richer more emollient cream to provide deep long lasting hydration. Skins that tend to be oilier or combination may prefer a light weight lotion with more of a matte finish.
4. When using a moisturizer on oilier skin remember to only hydrate the dryer areas of the face.Avoid the combination or T-Zone areas as these tend to need less or no additional moisture.Adding moisturizers in the oilier areas on the face could lead to additional breakout!
5. Using an Astringent or Toner prior to moisturizing will remove any remaining dirt or oil from the face allowing the moisturizer to penetrate much more effectively.This allows quick absorption leaving the skin feeling moist and comfortable not shinny or greasy.
