DON'T RUB IN. This is the first rule of Adipeau. Finger paint on instead. Active Face Cream can only get to the skin’s root structure by sliding down the mostly invisible hair follicles of the facial skin. Rubbing the cream in causes the natural actives to get stuck in the outer layer. Finger painting the cream on gives it time and access to the hair follicles.
Use 1-2 times daily on areas of concern or all over as a treatment mask. Apply in an even layer without rubbing in. For a quick treatment, apply as your first step after cleansing & toning, allow to absorb for 5-10 minutes and wipe off excess. For a more intensive treatment, apply as your last step and leave on the skin.
