For proper and effective skin care, it is not enough just to know your skin type (normal, dry, oily, sensitive or mixed), it is equally important to use quality and effective products and perhaps even more importantly, in the correct order.
From our many years of experience, customers very rarely make mistakes in choosing products for their skin type, but that's why they often make mistakes in skin care steps.
That's why we've prepared here an explanation and detailed description of each step in your skin care routine to maximize the effect of each product you use.
These steps are not only valid if you use our products, but are universal for almost all products, so you can use this guide even if you have not purchased anything.

1. STEP | CLEANING
To begin with, it is always very important to clean the skin well and thoroughly. Start by removing your make-up, for this you can use cosmetic products such as cleansing foam, cleansing oil or milk. But coconut or extra virgin olive oil will do the job just as well.
After you have removed your make-up, it is essential to clean your skin thoroughly, just removing make-up is not always enough to thoroughly clean your skin.
For cleaning, you can use foams, gels, oils or other facial cleansing products. Be sure to keep in mind what type of skin you have, so adapt the product you use to your skin.

Step 2 | WASH-OFF TREATMENT
After you have thoroughly cleansed the skin, it needs to be deeply nourished with nutrients.
The best choice for this are wash-off masks. Apply them on your face and keep them on your face for a while (ideally read the instructions on your mask).
After that, rinse them well with clean water.

3. STEP | TONING
Toners, as their name suggests, help tone the skin. But that is not their only role, especially if they are acid-based. In this case, they also gently exfoliate dead skin cells and prepare it for better and more efficient absorption of facial care products.

4. STEP | CORRECTION
In this step in the routine, the most active products with high effectiveness are used. We use them now because we have previously thoroughly cleaned the skin of make-up, impurities and dead skin cells, and after it has been toned, it is ready for these super effective treatments.

5. STEP | HYDRATION
In the 5th step, our main goal is to provide the skin with deep and effective hydration. Most often we use moisturizing creams for this, but leave-on and sheet masks with active ingredients are often equally good choices.
The difference between wash-off masks (from step 2) and these masks is that these masks are not washed off, but their main task is to penetrate as deeply as possible into the layers of the skin and deeply hydrate them.

6. STEP | SPF PROTECTION
The last step in the routine is perhaps the most important, and that is applying a cream with a protective SPF factor.
Regardless of the season, whether it is cloudy or sunny outside, it is very important to protect the skin from harmful UV rays that are present regardless of the weather outside.
Apply the cream with a protective factor on the face, neck, hands and other areas exposed to the sun. Reapply it after excessive sweating, swimming or washing your hands, or every two hours.
