IN THE MORNING: Cleansing your skin in the morning, along with using additional treatments is essential to getting clear, calm and healthy-looking skin.

• Step One: Cleanse with Purifying Face Wash. On damp skin, apply a nickel-size amount of gel, work through in circular motions and rinse well. Pat skin dry and immediately follow with toner.
• Step Two: Saturate a Toning Cloth with Elderberry Soothing Toner. Wipe over entire face, leave damp on skin and proceed to Step 3. By leaving the skin damp with toner, you are giving your skin a drink of water, which is essential for keeping skin clear. Toning Cloths are a must-have companion to Elderberry Soothing Toner.
• Step Three: Rub a nickel-size amount of Weightless Protection SPF 30 onto fingertips. Apply to entire face, neck and exposed chest. Proceed with makeup (optional). This is a sunscreen and moisturizer in-one so no other moisturizer should be needed.
  
  
• IN THE EVENING: It's important to wash your face and apply a lightweight lotion at night to remove a day's worth of oil, dirt and makeup. This will prepare your skin for optimal repair while you sleep.
• Step One: Cleanse with Purifying Face Wash. On damp skin, apply a nickel-size amount of gel, work through in circular motions and rinse well. Pat skin dry and immediately follow with toner.
• Step Two: Saturate a Toning Cloth with Elderberry Soothing Toner. Wipe over entire face, leave damp on skin and proceed to Step 3. By leaving the skin damp with the toner, you are giving your skin a drink of water, which is essential for keeping skin clear. Toning Cloths are a must-have companion to Elderberry Soothing Toner.
• Step Three: For three nights in a row, apply a thin layer (dime-size amount) of Pore + Wrinkle Perfecting Serum to damp skin. This may or may not cause a mild tingling sensation, which is considered normal. Wait 60 seconds and apply Skin Recovery Lotion. By treating your skin for three nights with Pore + Wrinkle Perfecting Serum, you are exfoliating to smooth the skin and reduce acne-causing bacteria in the pores. After three nights, discontinue using Pore + Wrinkle Perfecting Serum to give your skin a break from exfoliation.
• Step Three: For the next three nights, apply a thin layer (dime-size amount) of Skin Correcting Serum to damp skin. Using this serum will feed your skin with hydrating, age-defying ingredients. Alternate with the Pore + Wrinkle Perfecting Serum, using each for three nights at a time.
• Step Four: Apply a thin layer (dime-size amount) of Skin Recovery Lotion to entire face.
