A. Bumps as reaction to hair dyes or hair treatment chemicals
Uses REVIVE, REMEDY
The reaction to hair dyes or hair treatment chemicals such as conditioners is common. These sometimes itchy and small red bumps tend to be something the victim accepts more or less as part of looking beeyooteeful. If this is you, we suggest this regimen. From a few days to ten days should do the job and clear the problem. Our cost estimate is for ten days. Some find it helpful to apply REMEDY along the hairline just before a hair coloring treatment.
MORNINGS
- Cleanse with the REVIVE, rinse, pat dry.
- Mix a small amount of REMEDY with REVIVE and smooth in.
EVENINGS
(repeat morning regimen)
AVOID: moisturizers, sunscreens, toners, scrubs, exfoliating
B. Bumps from being a gym rat
Uses REVIVE, PURITY, REMEDY
This is a very common problem and easily solved. As you sweat and cool off and sweat again and cool off your skin is re-absorbing the sweat, now embedded with micro amounts of environmental dirt.
The heavy air you notice in a workout club are the heat given off by the membership working out AND airborne particulates, especially squames from everyone’s skin, often with bacteria hitching a ride. These particulates settle onto your skin, get absorbed and you get bumpy skin. For some super athletes, inflammatory acne is quite common. It is usually just enough of a problem to be annoying.
The bumps can also happen even if you workout outdoors, away from the crowds.
If you follow this regimen, it should solve your visible bumps issue.
MORNINGS
- Wash with REVIVE, rinse, pat dry.
- Apply REVIVE and smooth in.
- Before workout, apply PURITY mixed with REMEDY along your hairline, where bumps usually like to hang out.
EVENINGS
- Wash with REVIVE, rinse, pat dry.
- Apply REVIVE and smooth in.
AVOID: moisturizers, sunscreens, toners, scrubs, exfoliating
C. Bumps from wearing dirty hats.
Dude, visit the laundry, or get a new hat.
D. Bumps from wearing clean hats.
Uses REMEDY, REVIVE
On the other hand, if you are Mr. Clean and you are getting bumps and patches and red spots from the hat chafing your skin along the forehead, apply REMEDY to the area and smooth in. You only need a barely visible covering of REMEDY. Some use REVIVE to spread it evenly. Observe and adjust.
FYI: REMEDY will leave a tan stain from its mineral ingredients on the inner band of the hat that will not wash out, a darker hat will not show this, but a lighter colored hat will.
