Are You Applying Skincare Products Correctly?
You Have the Right Products...Now Learn How to Apply Them
Once you've stocked your cabinets full of our great beyond complexion products, the next step is to make sure you are applying them correctly so you get maximum results!
One of our most loved products is our Mandelic Acid 5+ Retexturizing Pads. They minimize the appearance of pores while exfoliating and brightening skin, plus they help tackle a range of skin woes, from acne to hyperpigmentation to aging. They are easy to use, but we do suggest a specific way to apply them...
How to Apply our Re-texturizing Pads
Step 1: Wipe the pad across your forehead with moderate pressure (not too much at first!).
Step 2: From the forehead, move to the cheek, down to the jawline, and then wipe pad upward to cheek.
Step 3: Repeat on the other side of your face.
Step 4: Apply to nose and chin being careful around the corners of the mouth and nose, where skin is more sensitive.
Things to Note: To start, use every other day in the evening after washing your face. As skin begins to adjust to the product, increase to 2 times a day.
If you are battling active acne lesions or impactions, first apply ice to inflamed skin and then proceed with pads.
Make sure to use a moisturizer that includes SPF, like our Daily Facial Moisturizer SPF 30 or our Vitamin C+ Sheer Defense SPF 30 as skin will be sensitive to the sun after exfoliating.

Hydrating and protecting your skin should be a part of your daily skincare routine - especially during the winter! Harsh winds and temperatures can wreak havoc on your skin and we often forget about sunscreen when we're not headed to the beach. Keeping your skin hydrated and protected from dangerous UVA/UVB rays is something that has to happen daily to make sure you have beautiful, glowing skin.

How to Remove Damaging Free Radicals from Your Skin
We are absolutely in LOVE with antioxidants. Why you may ask? It turns out they are the superheroes in our fight against free radicals - those pesky molecules that can damage our cells and cause aging.
A great way to incorporate antioxidants into your skincare routine is to use an antioxidant cleanser that will cleanse and remove damaging free radicals from your skin. Our newest cleanser, Green Tea and Pomegranate Antioxidant Cleanser, pulls together antioxidants from some of our favorite components into one face wash that will restore, rejuvenate, and hydrate the skin.
Here’s how it all works…
Benefits of Green Tea:
It’s an anti-inflammatory: Green tea is packed full of antioxidants which help calm the skin. This is a huge benefit for those with sensitive skin, rosacea, or if you’re dealing with harsh winter temps.
It protects you from environmental toxins and carcinogens: The powerful antioxidants actually promote DNA repair and help prevent skin cancer.
It promotes younger looking skin: Vitamins within green tea provide anti-aging compounds that stimulate cellular regeneration.
Benefits of Pomegranate:
It brightens skin: Pomegranates contain loads of Vitamin
C which helps regenerate cells leaving your skin looking younger, brighter and
with less dark spots.
It relieves mild breakouts: Pomegranate has been shown to
hinder growth of certain types of acne causing bacteria.
It’s also an anti-inflammatory: Why stop with just Green
Tea? Pomegranate also has natural
anti-inflammatory properties to soothe the skin and alleviate redness and
puffiness.
Other Awesome Ingredients in the Cleanser:
Allantoin:
An amazing addition to the cleanser that helps moisturize skin and also
increases the water content of your cells. It helps with skin smoothness and
promotes cell longevity.
Niacinamide: An effective
skin-restoring ingredient that offers multiple benefits for aging skin
including the ability to visibly improve the appearance of enlarged pores, fine
lines, and dullness.
Oh, by the way… This fun, refreshing cleanser is also great at removing makeup! Use it before – or alternate with - our BPO 10% Cleanser + Scrub for an ultimate clean, clear face.
Now that you know, you might wonder why you haven’t been using these ingredients before! It’s time to get all the goodness of these amazing antioxidant products all in one bottle with our Green Tea and Pomegranate Antioxidant Cleanser.
Add this to your list of resolutions: get your natural glow back! Winter temps, late night holiday adventures and overindulging on dessert (or dinner!) can leave your skin looking and feeling tired, dull, and dreary.
Luckily, our Mandelic Acid 5+ Re-texturizing Pads are the perfect item to add to your skincare routine to help you get your natural glow back in 2019.
Derived from almonds, Mandelic acid is a powerful acid that (gently) goes to battle with the oil, acne, and bacteria that disrupts the skin’s natural glow. The pads themselves provide a slight exfoliation, dislodging dead skin cells to allow this potent formula to get down to business.
The natural anti-bacterial properties of Mandelic acid loosen impacted and clogged pores while penetrating the skin to boost cell regeneration and skin elasticity. As a result, wrinkles, fine lines, and dark spots begin to fade away.
