MORNING REGIME

Step 1: Face wash

Cleansing helps remove excess oil, dust, dirt, and pollutants from your skin, preventing clogged pores that can lead to breakouts. Your skin should feel refreshed, not dry or tight, after cleansing. Cleanse your face up to three times a day following the technique shown in this video for optimal results.

Step 2: Moisturiser(optional for oily skin)

A moisturizer may only be needed if your skin feels dry after using other products in your routine. Apply a thin layer, starting with the U-zone and ending with the T-zone.

AFTERNOON REGIME

NIGHT REGIME

Remove makeup with micellar water and wash your face folowed by moisturiser if neeeded as discused in morning routine. 

Step 4 Night Treatment Product

At night, use Adapalene for stubborn acne, such as red or pus-filled pimples, numerous blackheads, whiteheads, or frequent breakouts. It is prescription-strength retinoid, to help prevent acne by increasing cell turnover and keeping pores clear.

Apply a pea-sized amount of Adapalene Gel 0.1% at night evenly over your face. If your skin reacts to adaplene then, follow the steps list below:

• Moisturize Sensitive Areas: Before applying adapalene gel, apply  Proactiv MD Ultra-Hydrating Moisturizer, to the entire face.
• Apply Adapalene: Apply adapalene gel specifically to the areas affected by acne. 
• Monitor Skin Reaction: If your skin tolerates it well without any adverse reactions, you can gradually increase the application. Apply adapalene to the entire face the next night.
• Adjust Frequency: If your skin reacts (becomes dry, red, or irritated), reduce the frequency of adapalene application. Start applying it on alternate nights or even less frequently based on your skin’s tolerance.
• Additional Moisturization: For areas that are particularly dry or reactive, you can apply 2-3 layers of moisturizer to soothe and hydrate the skin.
