A step-to-step guide to a simple Herbfarmacy skincare routine for day and night

We always get asked which products to use, in what order and what time of the day. In this blog we will be talking you through our hero products to nourish, replenish and renew your skin. To enjoy our classic Herbfarmacy routines, day or night, just follow these simple steps:

Morning Routine

A morning skin care routine needs to be reviving and awakening. It’s about starting your day feeling fresh and bright, giving you and your skin the best chance of a great day ahead.

Cleanse

Start with a gentle cleansing face and neck treatment with the Herbfarmacy Chamomile Cleanser to clean and smooth skin leaving it soft and replenished. Safe to use around the eyes, this will ensure you start with a clean, makeup free face.

Exfoliate

Next, apply the Herbfarmacy Apricot Face Polish and massage well into the skin to remove dead skin cells and encourage blood circulation. Remove with warm water using a soft muslin cloth. This product suits all skin types, but gentle application is advised for those suffering with acne or hypersensitive skin.

Tone

To finish your cleansing routine, treat your skin with a cool spritz of the Rose and Echinacea Toner. Spray onto a cotton wool pad and wipe face and neck clean. Or simply spray upwards and allow the mist to fall onto your face.

Moisturise

Use a small amount of the mosituriser best suited to your skin. You can find out which moisturiser is best for you on our website. Gently pat onto the skin to keep skin hydrated and refreshed post facial.  We have the Replenishing Face Cream for dry or mature skin, Calming Face Cream for combination and oily and Just Face Cream for sensitive or those who prefer a fragrance-free face cream.

Night time Routine

A simple night skin care routine will help to wash away the day, leave you feeling relaxed for sleep, and reduce the effects of daily living on your skin.

Cleanse

Following the morning routine for cleansing with the Chamomile Cleanser to remove all make-up including eye makeup. Then, cleanse again, this time, using the award-winning Mallow Beauty Balm for an ultimate moisture boost. Take a coffee bean sized amount of product and rub in between your hands to warm and disperse the balm. Once massaged in, all over the neck and decollate, allow to absorb for 2-3 minutes then remove with a warn muslin in upward circular motions.

Eye Cream

The next step is to apply a light layer of the Just Eye Cream around the eye area. The organic eye cream contains cornflower which is one of nature’s most potent anti inflammatories but remember, a little goes a long way. Apply to the under-eye area using your ring finger and gentle pressure.

Treatment

Once the face is clean use the Rose & Mallow Facial Oil, massage the face, neck and shoulders in an upward circular motion. This massage can last as long as you have time for, but we would suggest at least a minute to really get the blood circulating and to really enjoy the rosy aromas.
