Ensure perfectly clean skin!
/ In the current circumstances, when consistent personal hygiene is the priority, we also need to devote particular attention to the proper cleansing of the skin of the face.
While it is true that staying outside is currently not recommended, many people nevertheless have to perform essential daily errands, and in doing so expose themselves to the risk of viral infection. That is why on returning home it is recommended to follow a personal hygiene routine that begins with thorough washing and disinfecting of the hands and continues with cleansing and care of the face. The skin of the face is constantly unprotected and exposed to harmful external factors. Over the course of the day we frequently touch our face with our hands, in this way transferring various microorganisms to it. By using suitable skin cleansing products and rinsing with water, we are able to effectively remove them.

Every 30 minutes we touch up to 300 different surfaces on which numerous bacteria and viruses are located. These are then introduced to our body and passed on.
/DAILY FACIAL CLEANSING RITUAL
Every skin has its own characteristics and its own needs deriving from them. For cleansing, choose cosmetic products adapted to your skin (type, age and current condition) and follow these essential daily care steps every morning and evening: CLEANSING, TONING and CARE.
According to an internal survey, just 50% of women regularly cleanse their face, and the majority of these do not use suitable facial cleansing products or do not rinse them off correctly. Even more worrying is the fact that the majority of those surveyed believe that water is sufficient for cleansing. This is NOT TRUE, because the oil-soluble components of impurities are not soluble in water and therefore cannot be removed by water alone.
In the morning it is important to remove excess sebum, the skin’s metabolic secretions and solid grease-covered particles from the skin. The evening is the time to thoroughly cleanse the skin of accumulated impurities and dust, bacteria and make-up residues. It is a scientific fact that thorough cleansing stimulates and strengthens the natural protective processes of the skin, moderates the formation of impurities and helps the skin retain and renew a healthy balance.
CLEAN PHASE PRODUCTS – Effective skin cleansers
As much as 80% of the world’s population breathes unhealthy air. So-called particle pollution consists of particulate matter in the air such as dust, dirt, soot, smoke and liquid droplets. These pollutants enter the skin in the form of nanoparticles, with the following negative effects:
they can damage the skin’s protective barrier, accelerate water loss in the skin, disrupt signalling between skin cells and cause oxidative stress.
Effective CLEAN PHASE skin cleansers contain a built-in “ANTI-POLLUTION” ingredient that uses different mechanisms to protect skin cells against pollutant damage, maintain the vitality of skin cells and strengthen the skin’s protective function.
