Step 1 - Cleanse with Facial Cleanser
Cleansing the face is an important step in taking care of your skin. Cleansing helps to remove any excess skin oils or dirt that has accumulated throughout the day or night. Renaud Professional Facial Cleansers are effective, yet gentle enough to not disturb the skin's natural moisture balance. They help to maintain a healthy complexion and are a perfect addition to your face care routine. Select a cleanser suited to your skin type. Place a small amount of cleanser into hands and emulsify with lukewarm water. Apply to face in a circular motion, covering the entire face for about 30 seconds. Remove from the skin with warm water, while gently scrubbing with a face cloth or sponge. Rinse thoroughly, alternating with warm and cool water. This action will remove dirt and impurities from the skin's surface and prepare it for the next step.

Step 2 - Tone with Facial Tonique
Toners are important steps after cleansing to return your skin to its proper pH. This is important because it can take your skin up to six hours to return to its proper pH level without the help of a toner. Keeping the skin at its natural pH allows it to function at its optimum level. Apply toner using a cotton square or spray once or twice, over the entire face and leave on. Your skin will feel rejuvenated and you can enjoy the aromatherapy benefits of the real essential oils.

Step 3 - Treat with Facial Serum
This is the time to treat specific skin care concerns, such as acne, rosacea or lack of firmness. This is an optional step but once you experience the clarifying and age-defying benefits of this step you will want to continue to include this in your regime. Wait 2 - 3 minutes after applying the serum before applying moisturizer.

Step 4 - Moisturize with Facial Moisturizer
Soften and hydrate the skin with a moisturizer suited to your skin type. Even oily skin needs a light moisturizer to keep skin soft and supple. Apply over the entire face and neck area and leave on. For a lighter application, emulsify a small amount of moisturizer in your hand with a few drops of water. You may then very gently apply a small amount of Eye Cream or Gel around the eyes.

Step 5 - Protect with Sun Defense

Weekly

Exfoliate
After cleansing, it is important to exfoliate your skin at least once or twice per week. Facial exfoliators are essential to keep skin soft and glowing. They help slough off dead skin cells and keep pores clear. This sloughing action also smoothes and clarifies the face's complexion. An exfoliator is a great pick-me-up for tired, dull skin. It is also a good way to deal with rough or flaky skin. 
Apply exfoliant suited to your skin type and allow to dry for 5 - 10 minutes. Use a face cloth moistened with lukewarm water to gently scrub off the dried exfoliant using a circular motion while scrubbing. Rinse thoroughly with clear water and apply toner.

Masque
Choose a masque suited to your skin type or the condition that you are treating. Emulsify a small amount of the masque in your hand with a few drops of water and apply evenly over the entire face, neck and decollete areas. Avoid eye area. Allow the masque to dry for 5 - 10 minutes while breathing in the soothing scents. Use a face cloth moistened with lukewarm water to gently scrub off the masque using circular motions while scrubbing. Rinse thoroughly with clear water and apply toner.
