I would like to finish this cosmetics month journey giving you THE clue to get back your skin power.
"It all starts with a gentle cleansing care"

Keep it simple!
People for skin disorders have been to several skin specialists before to walk into my practice room.
After this first and only appointment, we communicate through texts message, calls or emails for follow ups.
Why???
During this appointment, we speak about their issues - of course - how the skin works and losses its power with toxic molecules and why their issues get bigger with time.
Plus, I take their pulses to check if they have any specific energy unbalanced, following Taoist and Chinese energy methods used in the Chi Nei Tsang practice.
If you read my newsletter, you might have seen I love reading labels and if you use my products you might have noticed that INCIs are kept very simple.
Why???
Skin food is the same than the food we eat.
If we eat processed food you get sick on the long term. So it is exactly the same for your skin.
Bury an apple into soil,
you may have a tree several years after
BUT if we bury a Mars bar,
we create pollution and toxicity for the soil!

It all starts with a gentle cleansing
We take showers, some people prefer in the morning, some in the evening time.
This is the same for your facial skin!
Why it is important to clean your face in the morning?
Our skin regenerates overnight:
- New cells (keratinocytes) are created when old and dead cells (corneocytes) peel off and remain on the surface of the skin
- The skin also produces some oil and creates a little sweat
- The dead cells are stuck in a sebum/sweat mixture which stays stuck on the skin
So, in the morning, the skin is dirty and needs to be cleansed to remove this film before starting the day and apply your facial serum.
Why it is important to clean your face at night?
Our skin is a barrier to protect our body from external attacks, retaining a lot of dirt, dust or micro-organisms that exist in the surrounding environment.
Our skin is a protective layer that have 8 functions:
- Retains water contained in our organism
- Breathe
- Purifies toxins (sweat, sebum)
- Builds reserves (mineral salts, fats, water)
- Cushioning when shocks
- Protects against microbes
- Transforms UV into Vitamin D
- Maintains temperature body up to 37 degrees
Our skin creates substances to strengthen its protection against:
- Dehydration (sebum)
- Temperature changes (perspiration)
- By eliminating some toxins (as skin is an emunctory organ)
All these waste cells accumulate on skin during the day.
At the end of the day, there is a thin layer of sebum with sweat full of impurities that need to take out.
If you have no particular skin issue, cleansing your face in the evening ritual is enough.
If You Do NOT Cleanse Your Skin
Skin suffocates because its regeneration process works by night.
If the skin is duty or not correctly cleansed, it becomes dull and dries out:
- Pores open
- Bacteria on the skin fall into pores
- Buttons appear

How to cleanse your facial skin
If you want your skin dull blooming, you understand that a good cleansing method is essential to keep a nice regeneration process ;-)
But to "cleanse" your skin does not mean "strip" it!
The mixture of "sebum + perspiration + impurities + dead cells" blocks the skin process. And skin needs a cleanser that removes its sticky mixture not destroying its process!
In this sticky mixture, there are:
• liposoluble particles like sebum
• hydrosoluble ones like sweat
To remove those 2 particles, you can just an oil in the skin routine.
Choose it that comes from an organic supplier with a first cold pression. Persticides go into our metabolism also through skin!
The Facial Cleanser I recommend to my Clientele
I used and made it first in the early 90th. Very simple INCI as only made from 2 ingredients:
You can blend them in equal parts, nothing more!!!
When these two ingredients interact with each other, they create the same process than the one to make soap, called saponification!
This is a very efficient soap without soap ;-) So soft for your skin.
The one I have tailored for my clientele as 2 more ingredients:
- Beeswax, as I found the milk to liquid without it
- Magnesium chloride, the best skin regenerative ingredient!
How to Use this Facial Cleanser?
- Pour some on a cotton pad
- Gently massage your entire face, eyes, neck and decollete
- Then wipe it out with another cotton pad
I personally use a cotton cloth, more eco-friendly ;-)
This milk has a basic pH. Our skin has an acidic one.
So to balance our skin pH back, we use a floral water which has an acidic pH.
Which Floral Water to go with your Facial Cleanser?
This facial cleanser is suitable for your type of skin.
So, to complete the cleansing, I would recommend floral water of:
- Rose for mature and dry skin
- Lavender for sensitive and reactive skin
- Peppermint for acne and oily skin
These is tones of floral waters, as much as essential oils exist!
You now know how to make your own Facial Cleanser Kit ;-)
