Clean your neck and throat as well

Don’t forget these two areas. Your older self will thank you for it. Work up a lather from a small amount of product between moist hands in the morning and evening. Clean face and throat with gentle motions. Thoroughly rinse off foam.

Use a soft towel

If you’re using a towel to dry, treat yourself to a very soft one. A hard rough towel could harm the delicate skin. Take your time with this part of the process until your face is nice and dry; you don’t want want your skin to be wet after washing it.

Moisturise

After drying, we recommend using a lotion that provides antioxidant protection against free radicals caused by sun and pollution. Spread this cream all over your face and let it set for about 15 minutes.
