KOBIDO Daily Skin Care Regiment
Posted: January 11th, 2010 | Category: Health and FitnessGuidelines for KOBIDO Daily Facial Regiment
A proper face care regimen is very similar in concept to well-executed hair care. Daily care for hair revolves around the use of shampoo and conditioner; the shampoo to clean the hair and remove excess oil and dirt, and conditioner to restore moisture and nutrients lost in the process of cleaning. Facial care should be treated in the same way. It’s important to both clean and properly treat the skin, and each step relies upon the others. Steps one and two in the process are for purification and three through five are to restore the moisture, vitamins, and minerals lost in day to day life and the purification process itself.
Step One: Cleanse
Cleansing is the most important step of the proper daily facial regiment, as it is the foundation upon which the remaining steps are built on. The effects of the entire skin care process will be marginalized, without proper cleansing.
Toner
Kobido Toners should be used before cleansing as well as in between most steps in the daily skin care regimen. Toners are alcohol-free and astringents are alcohol-based and should be used for bacterial control
Exfoliate
Exfoliation is the process of gently removing dead skin cells in order to bring vibrant, living cells to the surface. For our gentle exfoliator, we suggest using two to three times a week in the place of normal cleansing for that day, as our exfoliating products are Kobido cleansing scrubs.
Step Two: Purifying Mask
Kobido Masks are meant as a method of providing deep purification and additional mineral replacement to supplement the rest of the facial care process. Depending on the needs of the individual, it is recommended they be applied three times a week to daily.
Step Three: Treatment Mask
KOBIDO offers a variety of different treatment masks for different purposes, such as boosting collagen, reducing wrinkles, age spot reduction, anti-aging, acne control, and a variety other skin conditions. Choose the proper mask to suit your needs.
Step Four: Moisturize
After cleansing is complete, apply your toner to the entire face to re-hydrate the skin. KOBIDO prepares many different moisturizers, oil-free hydrating serums, as well as liquid moisturizer (squalene-based) to accommodate individual needs and skin types. Please check our moisturizer page for general guidelines or consult your KOBIDO certified esthetician to determine which moisturizer is most suited to your skintone.
Step Five: Eye Care
KOBIDO has prepared three different eye care products. If you begin developing bags under your eyes and need reduced collagen, we highly suggest ReSTORE. If you have age spots or fine lines around the eye we would suggest the use of ReCOVER. If the area around the eye is very sensitive, we suggest Kobido RePAIR.
In order for KOBIDO to maintain the highest quality product, ingredients are carefully chosen in balanced combinations. Our products are not tested on animals and do not have any ingredients from animals or insects. No artificial colors or fragrances added.
