Use this cleaner consumer version:

• Wet your face with lukewarm water.

• Dispense a small amount onto your fingertips.

• Gently lather over the face using light circular motions.

• Avoid the immediate eye area.

• Rinse thoroughly and pat dry.

• Use morning and/or evening based on your skin’s tolerance.

• Follow with serum and moisturizer.

• Use sunscreen during the day.

Tip: Because this cleanser already contains an exfoliating acid, avoid stacking too many strong exfoliating products in the same routine if your skin becomes tight or sensitive.
