Skincare Concerns:
Targeted Skin Type: Skin with uneven texture and thinning from aging. This is a light, easily spread, moisturizing serum without residual tack for skin that is losing its plumpness and resilience.
Skincare Concerns: Aged and unevenly textured 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.
How To Use:
This product contains vitamin A (retinol) and vitamin C metabolite (tetrahexyldecyl-ascorbate) and ceramides for lubricity.
It is an outstanding overall active for those wanting convenience and performance in one product. We recommend an evening application up to 3x per week.
An excellent companion to CERAMIDE SERUM is PRO HYA +. These two actives can be used twice (2x) per week each if both are in play (observe and adjust). Add to that our EYE FIRMING SERUM twice (2x) per week and you have a complete regimen for reversing the visible signs of aging.
As always, observe and adjust.
VISIBLE AGING:
- Apply CERAMIDE SERUM three times per week, evenings.
- Have two and preferably three cleansers in play: REVIVE, FACE & BODY BAR and 302 CLEANSER will provide excellent skin tone and efficient cleansing.
- Limit moisturizers to daytime use, and limit overall use.
- Introduce a second active – PRO HYA + is highly recommended if a second active is desired. Apply on alternate evenings, but wait two weeks before introducing.
- Use of A 0.5 or A 1.0 or C 12.5 or C 25 actives are not recommended. Using these products in combination with CERAMIDE SERUM will most likely weaken the skin and reverse visible results in time.
- If CERAMIDE SERUM use is up to three times (3x) per week (evenings best) and is your only active, then use of moisturizers such as LIGHT MOISTURIZER, BALANCE MOISTURIZER or INTENSIVE MOISTURIZER are fine on other days, and during the day, for best results. Avoid unthinking daily rituals of moisturizers. Observe and adjust. Be aware.
- Moisturizers can weaken the skin and subtract the systemic moisturizing you have cultivated with visible success using actives like CERAMIDE SERUM.
