For any skin-care regimen, it is important to experiment with various products and different combinations of
steps to find the most appropriate routine for your skin type.
Many of our cleansers and serums feature airless, locking pumps. To open, twist the pump counterclockwise.
Make sure you close after each use by turning clockwise to keep the product fresh and effective. Our jars
feature interior lids with convenient tabs for removing. Please replace that lid after using the product.
Step 1: Cleanse (a.m. & p.m.)
Wash face using the Reflections’ Choice cleanser for your skin type. Splash the face and eyes generously with
tepid to slightly warm water. Apply dime-sized amount to fingertips and work into a rich lather. Massage onto
face using gentle circular cleansing motions and rinse well with cool water. Pat dry with soft cloth.
Note: if a washcloth is used, use a different washcloth each time you cleanse.
If needed, use Reflections’ Choice Conditioning Makeup Remover before cleansing to remove heavy makeup,
including waterproof mascara. Apply to cotton pad and gently wipe across eyelids then face until all traces
of make-up disappears. Rinse with cool water; proceed to washing with desired facial cleanser.
Step 2: Tone (Optional)
Apply Reflections’ Choice Dual Action Toner or Dual Action Toner Pads for your skin type. After cleansing,
wet a cotton ball or pad with toner and gently stroke over the skin. Focus on dry areas and places where makeup
or cleanser may be left behind, such as the hairline, chin, and around the nose.
Step 3: Exfoliate (a.m. and/or p.m.)
After Step 1 or Step 2, apply the appropriate Reflections’ Choice Exfoliator. We primarily recommend Glycolic
Gel. For oily/acne prone, you may consider our AHA Clarifier. However, as our product information indicates,
this product should be used by people who have oily or acne-prone skin or who have been using AHAs for a long
time and now seek a stronger alpha hydroxy product. Please read specific directions for each of these products
to avoid skin irritation.
You may also alternate between the Glycolic Gel (a chemical exfoliator) or Micro Buff Dermabrasion Creme (a mechanical exfoliator). In either case, we advise care with this step. Watch for any signs of redness or sensitivity. We recommend exfoliating only 3-4X a week in the beginning. Read "The Importance of Being Gentle to Your Skin" to understand the importance of not irritating your skin and caring for your skin gently.
Step 4: Specialty Treatments (a.m. and/or p.m.)
This step is for those who use the 2.5% BP Lotion. We recommend that you apply 1-2 times daily to entire face or
areas prone to breakouts after steps 2 or 3. Use cotton balls to gently apply.

Step 5: Serum (a.m. and p.m.)
Apply a small amount (tiny dab) to cleansed face, neck and chest after exfoliating or applying a specialty treatment product. Check the directions for Reflections’ Choice Lipid Drops (can be used AM & PM) or Retinol Drops (use only at night) which may vary slightly
with each product. For very oily skin, Lipid Drops may be sufficient as a moisturizer.
Step 6: Moisturize (a.m. and/or p.m.)
Use the appropriate Reflections’ Choice anti-aging/hydrating product for your skin type. If you use a foundation with appropriate
SPF during the day, moisturizer can be worn under your foundation if necessary.
Apply your moisturizer in a thin layer on the facial and neck areas. If you are using the Ultra Firm Neck & Chest
smooth a small amount on these areas as well. Use gentle upward circular motions to rub into the skin. Make sure you
lightly cover all the neck and the decollete.
If you plan on an application of make-up, it is recommended that you wait several minutes for the skin to fully absorb the
moisturizer. If there is an excess after this time (the skin appears to be too shiny or wet), blot the skin gently with a
disposable tissue. If you are using a serum as your moisturizer, you will apply the serum and then apply make-up as usual.
For oily skin, use moisturizer on dry areas only, and only if needed. You may find that Reflections’ Choice Oil-Free
Moisturizer is the best moisturizer for your skin type.
Step 7: Protect (a.m.)
Using the Reflections’ Choice or other sunscreen of your choice, liberally apply sunscreen to your face, neck (make sure
to follow line of neck down to shoulders) arms, backs of hands, and any other areas that are exposed to the sun.
Always apply sunscreen at least 30 minutes before going outside. Check directions to see if more should be reapplied
after sweating, swimming, or washing hands.
Step 8: Masks (2-5 times/week; a.m. or p.m.)
We recommend that you use the appropriate mask a minimum of two (2) times a week. Depending on the mask you choose, you
may be able to use it more frequently. First, wash your face with the appropriate cleanser, then apply mask to face
following directions for that particular mask. Most masks remain on for 15-20 minutes. (Some masks can be left on
overnight; the specific directions for each product will clarify that.) Remove product by rinsing face very well.
You may need to wash your face again to make sure that all of the product is removed. Then continue with your morning or
evening routine. Don’t forget to pat yourself on the back for taking such good care of your skin!
You may also want to....
First, turn on some relaxing music. Then apply Glycolic Gel to exfoliate your skin, followed by the mask. After removing the mask, use Vita-C Peptide Spray (holding mist 6 inches from face, pump 3-4 times). Relax for another 10 minutes before proceeding with your skin care regime.
