Exfoliate & Mask
Exfoliating doesn’t necessarily mean scrubbing away at your skin. It comes in many forms including cleansers, serums and masks. Our Retinol Brulee AU | Retinol Brulee NZ has a blend of Retinol & Retinyl Palmitate to help regenerate and smooth the skin. If your skin is on the oilier side, our Exfoliating Clay Mask AU | Exfoliating Clay Mask NZ targets excess oil and impurities helping to leave your skin looking clean and clear. Our Fruit Enzyme Mask AU | Fruit Enzyme Mask NZ is suited to all skin types and is a great exfoliating gel mask to help remove lifeless skin cells. If you’re looking to hydrate, our Probiotic Mask AU | Probiotic Mask NZ or Hydrating Masks AU | Hydrating Masks NZ are the perfect additions to add to your skin routine.
Build the right night routine
The best time to go that extra step and rejuvenate and revitalize your skin is whilst you’re sleeping. It’s the perfect opportunity to give your skin some extra nourishment. It’s so important to make sure you’re cleansing your skin at night especially if you’ve had make up on throughout the day and this should be your first step in your routine. Our Purastat 5 Cleanser AU | Purastat 5 Cleanser NZ is a gentle exfoliating foaming cleanser which gets rid of dirt, makeup and excess oil plus environmental pollutants. The perfect night cleanser to add into your night time routine!
The next step is including a serum, based on your skin concerns and ensuring you’re using retinol to help refine and improve the appearance of your skin. Our Retinol Brulee AU | Retinol Brulee NZ is perfect for this. Serums should always be applied from thinnest to thickest consistency for maximum effect. Pair this with our Eye Lift 3 AU | Eye Lift 3 NZ which has been formulated to target and minimise the appearance of dark circles, under eye puffiness and wrinkles. Fast absorbing and lightweight to help illuminate the delicate eye area.
Finally, you should be including a moisturiser that is richer than what you’re putting on in the morning as this will elevate your hydration levels. Our Super Moisturising Complex AU | Super Moisturising Complex NZ is perfect for night use as it provides extra nourishment and hydration. Phytostat 9 AU | Phytostat 9 NZ also delivers a surge of hydration to reveal smoother more vibrant looking skin. You can also use this around the eye area for intense hydration
