subject: Refining Mask Proactiv Directions For Beginners [print this page] Proactiv is now the leading brand of skincare products used to treat and prevent the different symptoms associated with mild to moderate acne conditions. Its popularity has been brought about by the Proactiv 3-Step Skincare System. This system is made up of a cleanser, toner and moisturizing lotion, each having been carefully formulated with benzoyl peroxide and other ingredients to get rid of acne-causing bacteria and impurities that clog up the skin's pores.
To supplement this, the company had also developed other skincare products to use alongside of the 3-step skincare system. One of this is Proactiv's Refining Mask. This effectively helps unclog skin pores from impurities while lifting away dead skin cell layers to help new and healthy skin cells to surface, leaving you with fresher, clearer skin.
Below are the steps on using Proactiv Refining Mask to treat your acne condition.
The first step is to cleanse your face. To do this, massage a pea-size amount of Proactiv's Renewing Cleanser on your face in a circular motion for about five minutes. Rinse this thoroughly with warm water. Pat your face dry with a dry, clean towel.
Step 2 - Get about a quarter-size amount of Proactiv's Refining Mask and apply this all over your face. After the initial application, massage this again all over the face using circular strokes for another five minutes. Focus on the nose, forehead and chin areas. Leave on for 15 minutes.
After 15 minutes, rinse this out using warm water. Gently rub your face to completely remove the refining mask. Using a clean towel, pat your face dry.
Step 4. With a cotton ball, apply Proactiv's Revitalizing Toner and allow this to dry on the skin before applying a pea-size amount of Proactiv's Repairing Lotion all over the face, avoiding again the eye area.
To make sure that you get the fullness of the benefits of using the Proactiv Refining Mask, use this along with the 3-Step Skincare System every two weeks, or as often as directed by your dermatologist.
