CLEANSERS

Refer to the ROCIA skincare chart to determine which cleanser is best for your particular skin type: cleanse (balancing cleanser) or olive oil cleansing cake.

Wet face with warm water, apply cleanse / olive oil cleansing cake in light circular motions and rinse off.  Follow with toner.  Cleanse morning & night

Cleansing is the 1st step in your skincare routine and should be performed both morning and night:

• Deeply cleans face and unclogs pores
• Rich in natural ingredients to help nourish as it rinses away excess residue
• Prepares face to receive other ROCIA supplemental products allowing them to work as effectively as possible

Tips:

1. olive oil cleansing cake – avoid eye area.  Makes a great shaving soap for both men and women
2. cleanse - natural no-tear formula is a very effective eye-makeup remover.  To remove stubborn eyeliner etc. use a cotton swab dipped in cleanser and gently wipe makeup away … it’s that simple!
3. rosacea/inflamed/allergy-prone skin, once balanced, might want to rotate between ROCIA cleanser and the olive oil cleansing cake

TONERS

Refer to the ROCIA skincare chart to determine which toner is best for your particular skin type: toner (balancing toner) or purify (purifying toner)

Shake well.  Either spray directly onto face and neck area or apply to cotton pad for a more thorough removal of any excess oil and grime.  Allow to dry.  Tone morning and night after cleansing or after  applying facial scrub/masque

Toning is the 2nd step in your skincare routine and is without doubt the most neglected step:

• removes any last traces of dirt, excess oil and cleanser and prepares the skin to receive the benefits of other ROCIA skincare products
• rich in natural ingredients nourish as it helps improve skin’s clarity and refines pores without upsetting skin’s essential sebum and moisture barriers
• helps restore skin’s natural pH level which is slightly acid

Tips:

1. Toning is not recommended for rosacea-prone skin

MOISTURIZERS

Refer to the ROCIA skincare chart to determine which moisturizer is best for your particular skin type: clarify (normal-oily), purify (oily-acneic), hydrate (normal-dry), rose (dry), rejuve (35+) or delicate (sensitive-rosacea-prone)

Apply to face and neck area morning & night.

Moisturizing is the final step in your skincare routine whether you follow the basic 3-step process of cleanser, toner and moisturizer or apply additional supplemental products and should be performed both morning and night:

• Vitamin and anti-oxidant rich helps protect, nourish and condition the appearance of skin without upsetting it’s essential moisture barrier

2. if you experience a “tingling” sensation after application it simply means the product is working harder in that area
