Method

STEP 1: CONSULT 

Pregnancy is an exciting time, but some people may experience some unexpected skin changes when they are expecting including sensitivity, spots and breakouts, and pigmentation.

Take your time to really delve into what your client and their skin needs so you can confirm the perfect product matches. A mixologist needs to know the skin dietary restrictions so be sure to check the contraindication and any allergies.

Now let’s nurture the nurturer-to-be.

- TIME STARTS NOW -

STEP 2: FIRST CLEANSE

Position the client on their back with the upper portion of the bed raised to their liking, so they aren’t lying flat. Add a rolled towel under the knees for extra support.

Use your Smudge Budge to cleanse the skin, focusing on the eyes.

Massage approximately 2ml (a blueberry sized amount) of Smudge Budge over the face, eyes and décolletage. Add warm water to fingers and massage again to emulsify. Use a warm, damp compress to remove.  

STEP 3: SECOND CLEANSE 

Warm 3ml of Berry Fresh cleanser in your fingertips and massage over the face, neck and décolletage. Add warm water to fingers and massage again. Use a warm, damp compress to remove.

- AT 10 MINUTES -

STEP 4: EXFOLIATE 

Take your Brightening Berry Facial In A Jar and before applying, let the client know that the mask may tingle and to alert you if it becomes uncomfortable.

Take a scoop of the gel mask and, using your fingers, massage it onto your client’s skin. Starting by applying to the t-zone, jawline, sides of the face then finishing with the cheeks. Continue down the neck to the décolletage if required. Avoid the eye and lip area.

Leave the mask on the skin for 3-5 mins. Do not leave your client while it is on their skin. Using a warm (not hot) towel, gently remove the Peel.

STEP 5: HAND MASSAGE  

While the Facial in a Jar is on, perform a hand and arm massage using Mummy’s Tummy cream.

STEP 6: TONE  

Using fingers, massage Bio Juice over the skin. Allow to absorb.   

- AT 20 MINUTES -

STEP 7: MASK 

Press 4 drops of Rejuice onto the skin before applying the Infusive Peel Mask.

Prepare the Infusive Peel Mask.

Dispense 4 large scoops (80ml) of Infusive Peel Mask* into your Skin Juice silicon bowl. Add room temperature water (approx. 100-130ml). Using your white spatula, work quickly to mix the Infusive Peel until a paste is formed.

*This is a guide only. Refer to troubleshooting guide if you need help.

Starting at the forehead, apply the paste onto the face, including over the eye area and mouth if client is comfortable, ensuring the nostrils are left free. Leave a thickened edge of the mask for easy removal. Leave the mask on for 15mins.

STEP 8: FOOT + LEG MASSAGE

While the Infusive Peel Mask is on, perform a foot and leg massage using Berry Drops body oil. Wipe away any excess residue with a towel when completed.

- AT 40 MINUTES -

STEP 9: MASK REMOVAL

Lift the edges from around the forehead and peel downwards. Remove any residue with damp cotton pads or sponges and use fingertips to massage 1 pump (approximately 3ml) of Bio Juice onto the skin.

STEP 10: MASSAGE

Using Green Juice skin rescue balm, perform a facial massage. We recommend extending the massage to the back.

STEP 11: COMPLETION 

Leave the nutrient packed goodness from Green Juice on the skin. Depending on the time of day, you may also like to apply Sun Juice to your client’s skin to provide some mineral SPF protection for their skin.

Use the remaining time to perform a scalp massage to complete the treatment and advise your client of post treatment advice.
