Step 2: Acne Toning Pads (AM/PM)
- Use front and back of pad to treat the entire affected area 1-2x daily. Start with one application daily to avoid dryness. Gradually increase to 2x daily. Reduce application to once daily or every other day if bothersome dryness or peeling occurs.
Step 3: Ultra Lite Facial Cream (AM/PM)
- Apply 1-2 pumps once or twice daily, to clean skin.
Step 4: Sheer Mineral Sunscreen SPF 50 (AM)
