Tips on cleansing:
Cleansing the face is an essential part of cleansing your skin.
Garden of Eden Cleansing Milk is a soap free product. Soaps are generally not natural and are usually detergent based and consist of preservatives that damage our skin and accelerate the aging process. If your skin has heavy makeup or dirt, we advise that you remove what you can off the skin prior to cleansing. This will ensure the cleansing milk penetrates deep into the skin.
Tips on toning:
After cleansing, your pores are left open leaving your skin prone to dirt and bacteria. For this reason, it is essential to tone the face and neck after cleansing. Astringent’s remove any impurities that may still be on the skin or entered the skin after cleansing.
Garden of Eden Astringent and Toner will leave the skin energized and helps increase its elasticity. It should be applied after every wash.
Tips on facial moisturising:
Moisturising the face after toning is a nice finish to the daily process and adds moisture back into the skin.
Garden of Eden Anti-aging Cream is a unique blend of green tea, carrot and vitamins along with the age lock technology of Sepilift (triple firming action). This unique combination helps tighten the skin and adds the perfect finish to your daily routine.
What is skin pH?
pH stands for “potential of Hydrogen”. pH is a scale to measure the balance of acid base. A humans skin’s pH level is somewhere between 4.5 -6. When this value goes beyond 6, the skin is problematic. Therefore it is necessary to choose products that will balance the pH levels of your skin.
Both Garden of Eden Cleansing Milk and Garden of Eden Astringent and Toner consist of natural ingredients that will help balance the pH levels of the skin.
Should I moisturise my body every day?
A moisturiser or skin nourishing oil is a must and needs to be applied daily. Our skin is exposed to sun, dirt, pollution and other harmful chemicals every day which takes moisture out of our skin. Think of a moisturiser or skin nourishing oil, as a barrier between your skin and the air. A good lotion or oil will not only prevent moisture loss it will also protect skin from the harsh effects of the wind, cold and mild sun.
Garden of Eden Moisturising Lotion has the added benefits of Almond oil, Strawberry and Aloe-vera which will moisturise the skin, nourish and protect the skin, whilst leaving it soft and supple.
Why is my skin so dry?
Dry skin usually has a low level of sebum, which is the skins natural lubricant. As it does not have enough sebum it dries out easily and is unable to retain the right amount of moisture needed for healthy skin. If your skin is usually quite dry, apply moisturiser or oil twice daily, especially after washing the body. This is when the skin will be at the driest. Avoid HOT showers and long hot baths as this will deplete the moisture even more. Keep the skin hydrated by a good moisturiser or oil rich in active herbs and anti-oxidants, and make sure you drink plenty of water. Water rehydrates the skin from the inside out. |
