Skincare Concerns

Noticeable lines, uneven texture, reduced resilience. A 0.5 DROPS works best for those who want to address more visible sun damage and aging concerns.

Flaking usually not an issue, especially when used appropriately twice per week.

Aging and unstable skin cannot be exfoliated away and where it has lost its vitality and responsiveness new approaches are necessary. There are ways to recover depleted skin and we encourage you to learn more about skin recovery at REFERENCE TOPICS find especially these topics: REPAIR MODEL and the TRAINING MODEL.

ACNE SCARS

1. Apply A 0.5 DROPS twice (2x) per week, evenings. Spread with CALMING MIST.
2. After two weeks you may add 302 DROPS or 302 SERUM three times (3x) per week and reduce A 0.5 DROPS to once (1x) per week.
3. Complete smoothing takes several months but noticeable change occurs within first month.
4. Minimize use of other leave-on products. Avoid makeup,  moisturizers and sunblock.
5. Whenever 302 DROPS or 302 SERUM are in play, exfoliating can be destabilizing. Use only very mild products and very infrequently exfoliate.
6. Discontinue entire regime for 7 days every month. Let skin rest, cleanse and leave-on REVIVE only.

TIP: Instead of MIST, use REVIVE to spread A 0.5 DROPS. Use REVIVE as a cleanser and a leave-on moisturizer to help keep visible blemishes in check.

VISIBLE AGING

1. Apply A 0.5 DROPS twice (2x) per week, evenings.
2. After two weeks you may add C 12.5 DROPS or C 12.5 SERUM once (1x) per week, evenings.
3. Alternately you could introduce 302 DROPS or 302 SERUM and apply those three times (3x) per week and drop back the usage of A 0.5 DROPS in so doing.
4. If you have all three actives in play, limit every active to once (1x) per week application.
5. CERAMIDE SERUM or PRO HYA + also would be excellent choices to use once or twice per week with A 0.5 DROPS.
6. NEVER have more than three actives in play during a week. Limit every active to once per week to keep skin fresh and not saturated.
7. Whenever 302 DROPS or 302 SERUM are in play, exfoliating can be destabilizing. Use only very mild products and very infrequently exfoliate.
8. Minimize other products, especially makeup and moisturizers, avoid sunblock chemistry. Use REVIVE as cleanser, alternate with other cleanser, like 302 CLEANSER. Use REVIVE as moisturizer, too, especially if skin is unstable.

For your skin if these conditions exist:

Exfoliating acids usage is infrequent during the last 30 days

Benzoyl peroxide free for 30 days

Not inflamed or visibly unstable

Sensitive but not visibly unstable

Light to average makeup usage

Not for your skin if these conditions exist:

Inflamed, unstable skin

Unusual oral medications causing skin instability (i.e. chemo, cortisones, thyroid meds) may cause erratic skin behavior.

Recommended frequency of use:

Twice (2x) per week (observe and adjust)

After one month discontinue current active(s) regimen and allow skin to rest for a 7-10 days before resuming. This will allow skin reactions further out to be fresh and not weakened by over frequent or prolonged application periods.

Cleanse:

Note: two or three cleansers are recommended to be cycled through per week for best skin results.

Any 302 Skincare Cleanser or FACE & BODY BAR

REVIVE

Additional actives while using A 0.5 DROPS:

Do not introduce another active for 2 weeks.

Do not apply a second active more often than 2x per week.

You could have a third active in play.

Three actives per week = apply once per week (maximum).

If you have two or more actives in play AND are exfoliating frequently YOU WILL cause skin instability.

Additional leave-ons acceptable:

CALMING MIST
