Nature's Gift Creme Cleanser
|
|
|
Description:
A rich gentle cleanser designed for all skin types, but
especially pampering and nourishing for dry or mature skin.
Our Creme Cleanser will gently remove surface impurities such as
makeup, excess oil, bacteria and pollutants, while lovingly
exfoliating to remove dead surface cells without desturbing the
delicate moisture and oil balance that is key to healthy, glowing
skin. The use of harsh synthetic based detergent bars or
mineral oil based cleansers can unbalance the skin, leading to
inflammation, excess oil production or dryness and dehydration.
|
|
|
Usage:
Use daily to restore balance to dry, aged or sundamaged skin,
normal to oily and teenage skin. The originator states that
the emollient cleanser may also be used as a mask, which allows its
skin nurturing ingredients to penetrate and work even longer to
exfoliate, repair and thoughoughly clean the skin, preparing it for
the next step in your beauty ritual - toning with a hydrosol and/or
moisturizing with a light serum, carrier oil, or cream.
Massage the Creme Cleanser into your face and neck using gentle
upward strokes. You may stimulate circulation and relax
muscles by applying pressure to areas prone to develop smile or
frown lines, around the mouth, upper cheeks and forehead. For
a mask treatment upon occasion leave the cleanser on the skin for
10 minutes or so. In either case, remove either by rinsing with
warm water or with a warm washcloth.
Personally I use the cleanser as described above at bedtime,
and refresh my face in the morning with a cotton ball moistened with
a blend of hydrosols. If my skin should feel the least bit dry or
tight, I will add just a drop of my favorite fixed oil blend while
my skin is still moist from the hydrosol. Instant face cream!
