10-STEP SKIN DETOX GUIDE FOR BRIGHT, HEALTHY SKIN

A step-by-step skin detox guide for

healthier, brighter complexion 
Our complete 10-step skin detox guide will walk you through exactly how to achieve a healthier, brigher complexion.

Your skin is the largest and arguably most overlooked organ in your body, and that alone is enough reason for you to give
it a little extra love from time to time. Skin buildup, such as pollution, makeup, oil, dead skin cells and bacteria, sits on your
skin, clogging your pores and causing a lackluster complexion that’s more sensitive, volatile and prone to breakouts. If
your skin seems extra dull, is breaking out, or just seems off, it might be time to consider a skin detox.

Detoxingyour skin means removing as many of the impurities, toxins, pollutants and dead skin cells as possible to cleanse,
treat, brighten, hydrate and soothe your skin back to its optimal condition. If you’ve yet to try a skin detox, it’s probably
time. But before you start, some tips to keep in mind to boost the skin detoxi cation process. If you can, incorporate them
into your daily routine.

Quick tips:
1. When you’re in the shower, before you get our, try turning the water from hot to cold - this helps push toxins out from
the pores.

2. Always wash your face after exercise - you don’t want the sweat sitting on your face longer than it needs to be.

3. Clean your phone screen - bacteria can sit on your phone and transfer to your face.

4. Avoid excessively touching your face, our ngers are often carrying oils and bacteria.

Read on for our step-by-step skin detox guide for a brighter, healthier, glowing complexion. We suggest a week-long skin
detox cycle, every 3 months or so right before bedtime. Think about enjoying this and making it a relaxing self-care ritual.
Take your time, enjoy the process and de-stress!

10 Steps to Detoxing Your Skin

1. /drink LOTS of water

The Institute of Medicine recommends a daily water intake of around 91 ounces if you’re aiming to ush toxins from your
system. So try to drink at least ten glasses of water a day to get your skin detox started from the inside out. Get plenty of
water and try to steer away from alcohol and all sugary juices at all costs while detoxing you skin.

2. /make a morning detox

The use of apple cider vinegar for detoxi cation goes back thousands of years. Apple cider vinegar is known to help your
PH balance get back to an alkaline zone, which gets your digestive system back in order, keeps your energy higher from
natural resources and is naturally stimulates the detox of your liver. Swap out your morning cup of coffee for a morning
detox elixir: you may miss that cup of joe, but your body will adjust and you will eventually feel healthier and cleaner in the
end.

3. /cleanse like you mean it

Cleansing should be a daily habit, of course, but no matter your typical skincare routine, a skin detox requires
doublecleansing using a high quality cleansing cream. The rst part of your double cleansing routine will help remove
makeup, dirt, excess oils and pollution from your skin, while the second part will help remove any remaining impurities that
are left on the surface of your skin. 

4. /exfoliate, ever so gently

Use a gentle exfoliating formula like an enzymatic powder. The goal is to slough away all the pollution, makeup, oil,
bacteria, dead skin cells and toxins that you are purging from your skin.

5. /steam your pores

After your double cleansing, with squeaky clean complexion, exposing your skin to steam is great way to allow your next
ingredients to penetrate and clean out your pores of as much grime as possible. Bring a pot of water to boil, then transfer
the water to a bowl. Hover your face above the bowl and drape a towel over your head to concentrate the steam to your
facial pores for about ten minutes.

6. /add in your boosters

Your hyaluronic acid, vitamin c, retinol or tea tree can be applied  now that your pores are open, clean and ready to absorb
the active ingredients. Vitamin C especially, is a great detoxing agent. Rich in antioxidants, vitamin C scavenges free
radicals- pesky environmental aggressors that can cause things like ne lines, wrinkles, dull skin and other premature
signs of aging to occur on the skin. So, protecting - and detoxifying - the skin from them can be bene cial in the ght
against premature skin aging.

7. /time to hydrate
Your skin detox wouldn’t be complete without keeping your skin's moisture levels balanced. Opt for a hydrating serum
with hyaluronic acid designed to help lock water into the skin, helping you get to optimum hydration levels. Follow up with
a microalgae essence to recharge and hydrate the skin. Algae adds moisture to the skin by improving the cell
membranes plus contains multiple antioxidants, essential amino acids and omega-three fatty acids to detoxify the skin.

8. /use a detox mask

It’s time for a detoxifying, leave-on, anti-aging face mask to help revitalize your skin from impurities build up, and reveal a
radiant complexion in the morning. Take advantage of the balm-like texture to deeply massage your detoxifying mask into
your skin circling the area around the eyes and using movements from the center outwards. Leave on all night and wake
up to radiant skin, ready to take on the day.

9. /in the morning

When you wake up, your morning routine during a skin detox includes cleansing, boosters, moisturizer and sunscreen, in
this speci c order. Your moisturizer and sunscreen not only keep you skin protected from sun damage throughout the day,
but also provide a barrier against environmental aggressors like pollution.

10. /eat clean

What you put into your body affects your skin as much as what you put on it, so it’s important to adapt your diet to your
skin detoxing goals. Stay off dairy products, fried foods, and sugars, which are all pore-clogging and skin-dulling, for the
duration of your detox. Instead, opt for lots of alkaline-rich fruits and veggies like pears, broccoli, kale, watermelon, and
bananas. Alkaline minerals (like calcium, magnesium, and potassium) keep skin strong and healthy fats from foods like
avocados and nuts will have you glowing from the inside.

Just like a nutritional detox, a skin detox allows you skin to reboot. Detoxing stimulates a healthier environment for your
skin, fostering collagen and elastin development, boosting cell metabolism, increasing cell turnover and improving the skin
barrier.
