2. Add your serums. We recommend our #3 Restore for ultimate hydration
3. Use your favourite oil (which is, of course, our #4 Protect) and spread evenly into your skin. Use a drop or two more for some extra slip.
4. Turn on the Sculpt and glide the tool across your face, starting from the middle and dragging upwards and outwards. You can start to notice a bit of blood rushing to your skin and a plump and vibrant complexion after just a couple of minutes. Use up to 15 minutes- while you watch your favorite series or while sipping your Beauty Renewal.
5. Give face yoga a try- there are endless tutorials online, you’ll be sure to find one that tickles your fancy.
