Getting started with Omethod
If you have not already identified your skin type and the products best to use, click here to shop by your skin type. You can customize your skin care routine according to your specific needs by choosing products from multiple categories.
Daily Cleansing:
Apply 4-6 pumps of cleansing oil to damp skin and massage into the face and neck for two minutes. Remove with a warm, wet facial cloth. Cleansing oil should be used morning and night with an additional cleanse for makeup removal.
Routine Exfoliation
Use Omethod Facial Cleansing Scrub on top of your daily cleansing oil, three to five times per week, depending upon your skin type and needs. Gently massage one teaspoon into the face and neck, smoothing away texture and congestion while stimulating cellular renewal. Massage for one to two minutes and remove both cleansers with a warm, wet facial cloth.
Each person will have an individual and varied need for exfoliation. More sensitive skin types may require less frequent exfoliation, while more oil productive skin types may require frequent exfoliations.
Daily Toning
Toner provides the opportunity for water based ingredients that are beneficial for the skin to be absorbed and utilized. They exercise tissues, are antiseptic and astringent, providing the hydrophilic ingredients for proper barrier function, while prepping the skin for better absorption of your moisturizer.
Morning and evening, spray three to five pumps of toner into the palm of your hand and rub hands together. Gently press into the face and neck until just before skin becomes dry and follow with the treatment moisturizer most appropriate for your skin’s needs.
Daily Moisturizing
Apply 3-5 pumps of treatment oil/cream to the face and neck in the morning, following facial toner. It is not necessary to apply this at night during your skin care routine because the skin functions in two capacities. During the day the skin acts as a protective organ and during the night it functions as an eliminatory organ, eliminating waste products that ultimately benefit the skin as a whole. Using night creams and heavy products in the evening subdue the skins natural functions leading to many of the problems that skin care products seek to correct. It’s best to allow the skin to rest in the evening and perform its natural functions. As an alternative to heavy lotions and creams, “MGS Bloom Oil” can be applied in small amounts to provide extra moisture if needed.
