We strongly recommend adhering to the following instructions and tips in your after-care phase to maximize results, minimize scarring and prevent new acne from forming.

AVOID:

• Sun exposure for 7 days
• Touching your skin period, but if you must touch please use ​clean hands
• Disturbing scabs that may form, picking may worsen scarring
• Wearing make-up for a MINIMUM of 72 hours
• Skipping your morning and evening facial routine
• Exfoliating until AFTER 4 more days; wait 5+ days for sensitive skin
• Wearing soiled face masks. Do not exceed 12 hours in the same face mask.

Morning Routine for first 7 Days

1. Mask: Apply quarter-sized amount of face mask to bare skin with clean hands or applicator. Allow to absorb completely (5-10 mins)
2. Cleanse: with a quarter-sized amount of recommended face cleanser with your silicone face scrubber. Add a few drops of warm water to help move product around and open pores while cleansing face in circular motions for a minimum of 60 seconds
3. Do not exfoliate at all
4. Tone: Apply toner with a clean cotton swab/round. Four sprays should suffice, but for toners with additives like glycolic acid, lactic acid or salicylic acid, 2 sprays may be better tolerated. Use ball/round to wipe product across the forehead, hairline, bridge of the nose, cheeks, jaw, chin and neck. Allow toner to air dry completely before applying next product
5. Serum: Apply 1 drop of our Immortal Blossom Stem Cell Serum to face, massaging well for 60-90 seconds or until fully absorbed
6. Moisturizer: Apply 1-2 pumps of moisturizer to face and neck in circular motions. Massage well for a full 25-30 seconds
7. Apply desired sunscreen (SPF minimum we recommend is 30)

Night Routine for first 7 Nights

1. Mask: Apply a generous amount of cold cream to entire face (including neck) with mask applicator to remove dirt and makeup. We recommend applying this product cold to further reduce swelling/redness and scars
2. Cleanse: with a quarter-sized amount of recommended face cleanser with your silicone face scrubber. Add a few drops of warm water to help move product around and open pores while cleansing face in circular motions for a minimum of 60 seconds
3. Do not exfoliate at all
4. Tone: Apply toner with a clean cotton swab/round. Four sprays should suffice, but for toners with additives like glycolic acid, lactic acid or salicylic acid, 2 sprays may be better tolerated. Use ball/round to wipe product across the forehead, hairline, bridge of the nose, cheeks, jaw, chin and neck. Allow toner to air dry completely before applying next product
5. Serum: Apply 1 drop of our Immortal Blossom Stem Cell Serum to face, massaging well for 60-90 seconds or until fully absorbed
6. Moisturizer: Apply 1-2 pumps of moisturizer to face and neck in circular motions. Massage well for a full 25-30 seconds
7. Apply Rose Mask heavily to face and allow to absorb completely. For best results, leave mask on overnight.

Pro-Tip: For sensitive skin types, apply the rose mask and/or cold cream while cold (products are safe to move in and out of the fridge). Apply heavily after cleansing to further minimize pores and decrease swelling/redness.

Day/Night Routine 1 week after facial:
​Same as aforementioned steps except now you CAN exfoliate at Step 3

• Step 3: Exfoliate with a Scrub by scooping a quarter and a half-sized amount of face scrub onto your face scrubber or fingers and exfoliate gently in circular motions, take care to avoid the eyes. Rinse your face thoroughly with cold water to reduce irritation and close pores. Gently pat face dry with a clean washcloth/face towel before using toner, serum, moisturizer and sun screen.

                                                                                    Or
​

• Step 3: Exfoliate with Blackhead Poison (recommended for sensitive/dry skin): Wet the top of your Blackhead Poison applicator with warm water for several seconds before scrubbing in wide, circular motions, focusing on the chin, forehead, mid-brow and cheeks. Rinse your face thoroughly with cold water to reduce irritation and close pores. Gently pat face dry with a clean washcloth/face towel before using toner, serum, moisturizer and sun screen. 

Pro-Tip: We do not recommend dual-exfoliation for sensitive skin. Simply choose one exfoliant or another each time instead of both. Rinsing and follow up instructions are the same for singular and dual exfoliation. Do not exfoliate more than 3-4 times weekly for sensitive skin.
