PRODUCT ROUTINE & TROUBLESHOOTING

It is really important that you understand why you have acne and how it forms inside your pores. I want to give you the confidence, knowledge, and control so you can be successful with taking control your acne.

KickStart Routine | Week 1-2

This KickStart routine is for the first 2 weeks, after 2 weeks go onto The Bump Up Routine.

People often apply acne products only on their existing pimples to try and dry up the current blemishes on the skin. The bummer is you really can't do much about the ones already on your face. Remember it takes 90 days for a pimple to come to the surface (read more here). The Skin+ products are to be applied all over the skin to prevent future breakouts. Also, Don't jump ahead to do a stronger routine, If you start with the strongest products and routine, you won't be able to bump up your routine to get clear and stay clear.

+ The day you get your products in the mail, you will start at night with the peel pads. See Peel Pad instructions first. +

Morning

  1. Pro B5 Wash- Squeeze wash into your palm and gently massage into damp skin, add water to lather. Rise well and pat dry. (No scrubs or brushes, this can make acne worse)
  2. NourishRX (optional) Use if you have dryer skin or live in a dry climate and need more moisture. Pump 1-2 pumps of NRX into the palm of your hands, apply all over your face.
  3. UVDaily 30-Use 4 pumps of UV Daily 30 on your entire face, neck and ears. Re-apply every 80 minutes when in direct sun or after swimming/sweating.

Evening

  2. Daily A (every other night)- Squirt a 1/2 full dropper into palms and apply all over your face, you may feel a slight tingle.

At-Home Peel Pads | How to use

Note-You are going to feel activation with this treatment. On a scale 1-10, 1 you feel nothing and 10 your skin is on fire. 1-5 is acceptable.

Use the At-home Peel Pads every two weeks at night before you bump up your routine.

  1. Wash Pro B5 Wash (Do a double cleanse to ensure your skin is clean)
  2. Take photos- each side and straight on of your face. Create a Skin folder in your phone, add photos.
  3. Open peel pad jar, remove one pad. Start on your forehead, move pad in circular motions until you have done one layer on your entire face. If you feel more than a 5 sting level, wash it off and apply NourishRX.
  4. If you felt less than a 5 sting level, using the same pad, apply another layer.
  5. Throw pad away, and wash your hands. (you may get a bit of peeling on your fingers the first few uses)
  6. Do not apply any of your products, no moisturizer, nothing. Your skin is going to feel tight and dry. You should start peeling 2-3 days after the treatment, continue to use your products while peeling, this will help you peel faster and clear out acne impactions.
