Details

The following is a more detailed list of instructions for your skin care regimen.  As before, you may ignore or cross out products you do not use, but the order of use remains the same.

Special Note:  Miracle Zit, Smoothing Cream, Smoothing Gel, or products like Retina, Retina Micro, Renova, or Avita should be kept in the refrigerator—they’ll work faster when cold.

Morning Instructions
faucet_running_water_md_wht.gif (4141 bytes)     sink_drip_md_wht.gif (6981 bytes)When showering or washing your face, always use cool water.  Steamy showers and hot water aggravate your skin, exacerbating acne.

If you used Miracle Zit last night, rinse off the residue with a washcloth and cool water very gently.


GELLOID MOISTURIZER AND MASK or MOISTURE WHIP SMOOTHER
 -
Apply two portions, the size of a quarter each, to the face and neck as soon as you wake up and/or immediately after exercising to replace lost moisture. Leave on until absorbed, (usually between 5 and 15 minutes) depending on how dry you are. You may leave it on longer if you have time and are relaxing. You may also apply more if it absorbs very quickly and you need more moisture in any area. Remove residue, if any with Corrective Grains and water for 20 seconds.

quarter_guy_walking_md_wht.gif (27170 bytes)      quarter_spinning_md_wht.gif (9667 bytes)

CORRECTIVE GRAINS - Apply one quarter’s worth change to flat dimes worth please to your face (directly over the residue of Gelloid or MWS, if you use it) to gently exfoliate your skin. Use Corrective Grains in the shower or at the sink, in the morning and at night, to remove dead skin cells (keratinocytes) before cleansing with Facial Shampoo. Add water and massage gently for 20 seconds using your fingertips.  Do not use washcloths or luffas—these are too harsh for the delicate skin on your face.  You are not scrubbing, polishing, or sanding!  It is very important to exfoliate gently, so that you do not aggravate your skin.  You should think of your skin as a butterfly wing or rose petal that you do not want to damage. Before rinsing, use the residue on your fingertips on the back of your hands and arms—gently!

FACIAL SHAMPOO - Apply one quarter’s worth change to pea sized shape to your face, eyes and neck. Add water and massage gently using only your fingertips as tools. Rinse well. Facial Shampoo is a no-tears formula with a rich lather.   It removes waterproof make up and mascara, and leaves no residue of any kind on the skin. Use your Facial Shampoo in the shower or at the sink, in the morning and at night.  You should also use Facial Shampoo after working out, or exposure to heat or humidity, in order to remove perspiration.

BIOLOGICAL REDEFINING MASK or MSSR REDEFINITION MASK -
Apply a very thick coat (1/8 of an inch or more!) to affected areas of your face. Leave on for 15 minutes and do not allow the mask to dry on your skin. Rinse off gently with a washcloth and cool water. This clay mask for oily and/or acne prone skin should not be applied to areas that are dry without using Old Lady Cream as a buffer.  If your skin is dry, leave on for only seven minutes and Buffer with Old Lady Cream.  Use twice a week in winter, 3 times a week in summer. Biological Redefining Mask and MSSR REDEFINITION MASK removes oil, dead skin cells and bacteria and leaves your skin feeling silky. A great way to prep your face for an important day or a special night out!

ICE - Ice your face for one minute.  Barbara advises all her clients to ice, because it reduces swelling and inflammation and allows your products to penetrate more quickly and give you faster and better results. It is Sage Advice. There are two ways to do this:

1) Fill a paper cup with water and freeze it. Every evening take it out and ice your face. As you use up the ice simply peel back the edges of the paper cup.

2) Use an ice cube on its own or wrap it in a damp washcloth.

BLEACHING EMULSION with KOJIC ACID - During the first two weeks of use, this product should only be applied once a day, in the evening. After two weeks, it is used twice a day, morning and evening. Holding a q-tip under the pump, depress as gently as possible. Spread on effected areas after Corrective Grains, Facial Shampoo and icing. One pea-sized shape does the entire face, use tiny amounts for individual areas. Wait 20 seconds before applying SPF 25 in the morning , and 20 seconds before re-dampening and applying evening products. You’ll see fantastic results in 5 - 7 weeks as long as you use SPF 25 every day. That’s right, every day, even if it is cloudy, snowing, or raining!  Bleaching Emulsion lightens and/or removes discoloration on the face and body from cumulative, everyday exposure to the sun. Be aware that antibiotics, antihistamines, antidepressants, birth control pills, hormones, homeopathic herbs such as St. John's Wort and Echinacea, as well as pregnancy, menopause, peri-menopause and the use of Retina, Renova or Avita, make your skin more sensitive to sunlight, and will lead to discoloration without the proper use of sun block.

ZIT ZAPPER - is perfect for very sensitive or oily skin. For those of you who are sensitive to BPO this alternative will allow you to win the acne battle! The Alpha Hydroxy and Salicylic Acid remove zits from your face without irritation, redness, flaking or peeling. It is not photosensitive and may be used morning or evening to fight acne and give you a smooth, glowing and flawless complexion.  You may area and spot treat with this product.  It can also be used in conjunction with Miracle Zit/Fix Zit and Smoothing Cream. This is a major new tool in your acne-fighting arsenal.  Only a pea-sized shape is needed for area treating. Spot treating over your makeup during the day will speed up your results.  

MOTHER STRICKLAND’S SKIN RELIEF - is a BHA based (Salicylic Acid) product that removes redness and irritation from the skin. It is especially good for those who have dry, flaky, and Rosacea-irritated skin.  Use on body twice a day for smoothing rough or irritated skin on the feet, hands, elbows and knees. MSSR also works very well to remove the “oilies” from oily skin. It prevents and removes all kinds of zits including Big Mothers and “waxy worms” without irritating or over-drying your skin! This gentle yet effective product should be used morning and evening for area and/or spot treating on all skin types. One pea-sized shape is all that is needed to area treat your entire face. Two pea-sized shapes will cover a whole foot. Spread gently and do not rub over damp skin! It may be used under SPF 25 in the morning and under Old Lady Cream, Smoothing Cream or Gel and Miracle Zit /Fix Zit at night. You may also spot treat lesions over your make up during the day. Those with delicate or sensitive skin, including skin affected by Rosacea and acne should order 1%.  2% is used for oily skin as well as sensitive skin, acne, and Rosacea. 4% is appropriate for stronger use on arms, hands, feet and acne and oily skin.

SPF 25 - Re-dampen your skin if needed, place a pea-sized shape to your fingertips, and spread gently over face and neck; do not rub.  SPF 25 is a hydrolyzed product and penetrates when mixed with water,, so your re-dampened skin should be almost dripping wet. Use sun block every day of your life, whether it is cloudy, raining, or snowing.  SPF 25 should be used on the face, neck, eyes, hands, arms, and the back of your neck and ears! If you will be outdoors for sports, sunbathing or other activities, apply sun block 30 minutes before you go outside. Be sure to reapply SPF after immersion in water! SPF 25 protects against both UVA & UVB rays. P.S., avoid tanning beds like the plague!  See Barbara’s article, “Tanning: The Process Which Turns Skin into Leather,” for more information on the dangers and detriments of tanning beds.

How to apply SPF 25 or 40: Apply one pea-sized shape to the third finger tip of one hand. Spread 2nd , third and 4th finger tips of both hands together and spread lightly across damp skin. DO NOT RUB

GELLOID MOISTURIZER AND MASK or MOISTURE WHIP SMOOTHER - Apply throughout the day as needed over makeup to keep skin fresh, healthy, and moisturized.  A pea-sized shape can be used to cover entire face, or apply small amounts as needed for spot treating. 

OLD LADY CREAM - The ultimate sealant if your skin is dry, itchy or irritated from the elements, by using Retina, Renova, Smoothing Cream/Gel , Retina Micro, or from physical exercise. Old Lady Cream also makes a terrific eye cream. This is the last step to seal in moisture. Apply a flat dime's worth and spread gently. Always reapply Gelloid moisturizer and/or Old Lady Cream sealant after exercise or strenuous physical activity for smooth, flawless and glowing skin.  You may also use this product over SPF 25 and under Smoothing Cream on the whole face or just under the eyes. It makes an excellent buffer under Miracle Zit or Fix Zit at night.

Important Information about Smoothing Gel and Smoothing Cream - You may have received more than one smoothing product from Sage.  Smoothing Gel is for oily areas and Smoothing Creams are for normal or dry areas.  When you use a combination of smoothing products on your face, you will not use the full amount that is called for in each product's directions. For example, the directions say to use "a flat dime’s worth,” but that assumes that you are using it on your entire face! If you only use a product on half of your face, you only use half a flat dime's worth. If only using on one third of your face, apply one third of a flat dime's worth, etc.… Applying smoothing products too liberally can aggravate your skin.  It is vital that you use the correct amount of products, not to mention that careful use saves money!

12% or 20% SMOOTHING CREAM w/Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 - Use on dry, normal and/or mature skin. Use this product in the morning during the first month of use. After the first month, proceed to morning and evening.  Your skin needs one month to acclimate to this product before you can use it twice a day. Apply a flat dime's worth (see note above) to your fingertips and spread directly over your SPF 25 on very damp skin. Do not wait for SPF to absorb. Spread gently, do not rub. This product may be applied on the entire face, including the eye area. May tingle or sting for one minute after application. Smooth over face, eyes, and neck. Smoothing cream will remove fine lines, wrinkles, acne, acne scarring, discoloration and rough, unevenly textured skin. Contains Alpha Hydroxy, Salicylic, Hyaluronic and Vitamin C acids.

quarter_guy_walking_md_wht.gif (27170 bytes)

20% SMOOTHING GEL w/Acetyl Hexapeptide-8 is much stronger than the cream, and should only be used on oily and/or acne prone skin. For the first month only use this product in the morning. After the first month, proceed to morning and evening use.  Your skin needs one month of use to acclimate to this product before you can use it twice a day.  Apply a pea-sized dab (see note above) to your fingertips and spread over SPF 25 on very damp skin. Do not wait for SPF to absorb. May tingle or sting for one minute after application. Smoothing Gel removes fine lines, wrinkles, acne lesions, and discoloration.  By removing keratinocytes, Smoothing Gel also reduces the appearance of pores. Contains Alpha Hydroxy, Salicylic, Hyaluronic and Vitamin C acids.

 

GELLOID MOISTURIZER AND MASK or MOISTURE WHIP SMOOTHER - Apply throughout the day as needed over makeup to keep skin fresh, healthy, and moisturized.  A pea-sized shape can be used to cover entire face, or apply small amounts as needed for spot treating.

FINISHING TOUCHES
You’re done!  If you wear makeup, notice how it glides onto your new, supple skin.  Be sure to check the ingredients in your makeup on the Sage Database of Comedogenic and Irritating Ingredients. Using this database, you can discover for yourself whether the ingredients in your makeup exacerbate your skin’s acne or irritation.

It makes an excellent buffer under Miracle Zit or Fix Zit at night.

MIRACLE ZIT or FIX ZIT - Apply a thick coat of Miracle Zit or Fix Zit to the affected area and a "blob" to any lesion you can see or feel under or on the surface of the skin. Miracle Zit and Fix Zit will discolor any fabric it contacts while wet, so allow it to dry completely before sleeping. Remember, zits take 90 days to form, so this product must be used consistently to avoid more lesions, even when the skin appears to be clear. XX Miracle Zit and XX Fix Zit with Sulfur are extremely effective on “big mothers,” which appear just in time for a photograph, wedding, class reunion or job interview! Never use Miracle Zit or Fix Zit above the cheekbone or below the eyebrow.  If your skin is sensitive, you may wish to apply Old Lady Cream under Miracle Zit or Fix Zit as a buffer. 

EYE & LIP BALM Use on the eye area, lips, or the entire face. Our Eye & Lip Balm moisturizes, soothes, reduces redness, inflammation, and fine lines. Hylauronic Acid, a naturally occurring moisturizer in your skin, is loaded into this product to give you maximum results. Eyes: Can be used morning and evening with or without Old Lady Cream, Smoothing Cream, Zit Zapper, or Mother Strickland's Skin Relief. Lips: Use a tiny dab under lipstick in AM and on bare lips in PM.

BODY PRODUCTS

Order of Application:

Heavenly Body Luffa Corrective Grains for the body. Use gently once a day to remove all dead or dry skin cells and leave your skin Baby soft. Especially good for KERATOSIS PILARIS (those nasty white pin head size bumps one may get in the winter). It is Non Drying and Non Comedogenic. The size of a quarters worth does a whole leg. Use Gently with lots of water and rinse well.  

Heavenly Body Shampoo Use one to two teaspoons for a long soak in the tub and a tablespoon if you are feeling luxurious or extravagant. Use about a dimes worth per arm or leg to cleanse with. Only a small amount is needed. If cleansing your hair use between a nickel and dimes worth for clean, soft and supple hair. Rinse well. This product leaves no residue in the bath or shower.  

Bleaching Emulsion with Kojic Acid (on damp skin; wait one minute and re dampen skin)  

Heavenly Body Oil May be used in the tub with or without salts or Heavenly Body Shampoo. Spray and rub gently on the skin while wet or dry. I have hydrolyzed the oil so that it penetrates instantly and will not leave oil stains on clothes even if applied to dry skin. Apply twice daily for best results. Cover with Heavenly Body Acid or Heavenly Body Velvet.  

SPF 25 apply to entire body after bathing first thing in the morning on wet or dry skin at least 20  minutes prior to sun exposure.  

Heavenly Body Acid The wonderful hydrolyzed body acid removes dry, flaky, dead skin cells. It also relieves  Keratosis Pilaris or hard white and red bumps from the skin. It softens and soothes your skin from neck to toes :-) Bye Bye alligator skin :-)
Heavenly Body Acid may be applied to wet or dry skin and absorbs instantly leaving no oil residue on the skin. It may be used over Heavenly Body Oil as well. The best results come from applying it twice a day. It is Sage Advice.

Heavenly Body Velvet Use this whipped and hydrolyzed (penetrating) body cream over your body oil or apply directly to the skin after bathing or showering on wet or dry skin. Bye Bye Alligator skin, hello soft and supple skin. Especially good for feet and hands winter or summer. Apply twice daily for best results.  

Claw & Paw - The Ultimate Moisture Barrier and Sealant for dry, rough, and irritated hands, feet, and faces. Use winter and summer. Claw and Paw Cream may also be used on your face when running, jogging, or swimming as a barrier against dehydration and irritation. Great to coat your face with before snow skiing or swimming in chlorinated pools and the ocean so your skin does not dry out. Helps to relieve itching and burning from Psoriasis and Excema as well. Feet: Use a foot paddle gently to remove dead flaky skin twice a week, apply Claw and Paw Cream twice daily and allow to soak in. Hands: Apply after every application of water or soap and after working with anything that could dry or irritate your hands. Face: Apply as needed.

Hydrocort -  Hydrocort may be used for redness, itching, peeling, flaking, swelling and irritation to calm and soothe the skin. It is excellent for Contact Dermatitis on the face and from eye make up as well. Directions: Apply A.M and evening and once during the day for two weeks. Apply morning and evening for two weeks. Apply morning for the next week and every other day after that. Discontinue slowly.

At Home Peels

Use your Corrective Grains on your face with lots of water very gently for 20 seconds. Rinse well with hands and water only. Leave skin damp. If you are sensitive, buffer with OLD LADY CREAM and leave peel on for one minute to start.

Apply at least a pea sized shape of At Home Peels to your face going all the way up under eye area to the base of your lower lid.

Leave peel on your face for two minutes. For the last 20 seconds of the peel, you may use the sponge provided (very damp) to gently massage any area you wish to work on.

Rinse with a wash cloth and cool water gently. Apply a thick coat of Gelloid Moisturizer or Old Lady Cream. Wait 5 minutes and ice your face with ice cubes in a damp towel. Apply more Gelloid or Old Lady Cream if needed. Use no Grains, Smoothing Gel or Cream, Retina or Miracle Zit, etc. that evening.

After one or two peels you may start increasing the time you leave the peel on by 30 second increments, until you reach four minutes. My advice would be to proceed slowly. You may do a peel every 5-7 days.
