How to wake up your skin!

Who doesn’t dream of healthier, plumper-looking skin? The secret to this is a mix of great skin care, a complexion-friendly diet, effective formulas and also facial massaging. But it’s easier than it sounds. Our Alter-Care Serum is a summer skin go-to for instantly hydrating the complexion and giving it a fresh, well-rested appearance. Hadda has combined this with her easy-to-follow massage techniques to ensure radiant skin.
Step 1 - Instantly revive your skin
To wake up tired skin and stimulate blood flow, apply Alter-Care Serum to the centre of your face and smooth across to the hair line – repeat this three times”, explains Hadda. This action will help to instantly relax forehead muscles and release tension. This massage is also great to do in the evening if you’ve spent the day in front of a laptop or computer, gentle releasing the tension that builds up whilst focusing on a screen for much of the day.
Step 2 - Naturally lift your skin
Give your skin a natural lift with gentle massage techniques that smooth the skin and underlying muscles upwards. “Smooth Alter-Care Serum up from the corners of your mouth to the forehead, applying more pressure as you reach the top”, explains Hadda. As your fingers glide over your skin gently press in at the temples to relieve pressure and tension we often hold around the area.
“For the final stage of your skin-waking massage, complete the ritual by softly pinching all over your skin to stimulate skin tissue repair and regeneration." explains Hadda. This helps the blood circulate and up the oxygen levels. It will also give the complexion a beautiful rosy glow.
Your skin will instantly feel hydrated and revitalised the first time you use Alter-Care Serum, thanks to mineral-rich ingredients such as Marine Spring Water, and after four weeks, skin vitality and luminosity increase by over 100%.
