• Although a program for specific skin types is offered, Martina Gebhardt suggests that you experiment to find the right blend for your skin type.
• You can interchange products from various skin care systems. For example you can use the Ginseng Cream or Ginseng Lotion (refreshing invirgorating effect) in the morning and the Rose Skin Care products (more calming and harmonizing) in the evening.
• As a general rule, Martina Gebhardt suggests applying skin care products sparingly. A tiny amount goes a long way. An excess of creams and lotions can actually inhibit the skin’s own functions
• For normal, younger skin, it is sufficient to use only a facial cleanser at night. Our facial cleanser contain pure, high-grade plant oils and provides enough oil to protect your skin overnight, still leaving your skin able to breathe. This way, perspiration and impurities reach the skin’s surface without obstruction.  If your skin type requires a somewhat richer treatment, our lotions or creams provide excellent night protection.  
• Skin tonics are an important part of your daily skin routine. Our skin tonics are made with Spagyric Essences and offer important water-soluble nutrients that are not available in creams or lotions. Therefore, we suggest you use the skin tonics regularly after cleansing. Infact, you can apply tonics several times each day to refresh and revitalize your skin. 
• Consider your skin condition, the local air quality, and the seasons when selecting a lotion or cream. In the summer, we suggest using facial lotions; for the winter months we suggest using creams. The facial lotion is also perfectly suited as a makeup base. Alternatively, the creams can be applied as a facial mask to feed the skin with more concentrated nutrients.  
• You can adjust the moisture content to suit your individual needs. To obtain the perfect amount of moisture for your skin type, you can thin the cream by mixing in a little of the corresponding lotion before applying.  
• Our specialty creams, facial masks, and facial seed oils can be combined with any of our other products. 
• Change skin care products periodically to ensure that your skin receives a broad range of nutrients. 
• Caution: Our products are formulated without any harsh or irritating synthetic or petroleum based ingredients and are therefore very gentle by nature. However, we have to keep in mind that it is possible to develop allergies or sensitivities to any substance on earth - including natural ubstances. Therefore, if you have allergy-prone or highly sensitive skin always carefully review ingredient list and patch test before applying any skin care products. Consult with your hoilistic health or beauty professional for guidance as needed.
