How do I apply oils correctly?
(Application) technique is everything!

Just as important as the correct oil dosage is the application technique, as this also determines how much oil ultimately ends up on your skin!
If you use Liquid Barrier, the best way to use it is as follows:
• Shake the bottle and warm it between your palms for a few seconds
• then take the number of drops that suits you
• Rub your hands lightly together to distribute the oil evenly on both palms
• Now apply the oil by gently pressing the entire palm of your hand onto your entire face.
Wait a moment and feel it: You'll notice that Liquid Barrier's special formula absorbs instantly and leaves no oily film on your skin at all. So, no sticky, shiny face that needs to be powdered again, but skin that's instantly ready to go!
Your system
Finally, a few words about the order of what you should use, and when, in which combination. From my conversations with clients, I know that there are many different explanations and recommendations circulating on this. I personally prefer minimal effort with maximum effect. Therefore, I recommend the following steps:
1. Cleanse your face as usual and prepare your skin for the treatment. In the morning, cleansing with plain water is absolutely sufficient, provided your skin isn't overly oily.
2. Your skin is now at its most receptive to active ingredients. Ideally, apply a serum NOW: Vivid H2O or Poise & Purity.
3. Complete your system by resealing your skin with an oil for optimal protection. Liquid Barrier is perfect for this.
With this standard system, you're perfectly equipped for everyday life. Of course, you can always expand it and add, for example, a scrub like Mask to Reveal—depending on what your skin needs at the time. The products I developed for TEN TWELVE are all perfectly coordinated in their effects. By combining them, you ensure you get the maximum benefit and your skin is supplied with everything it needs to stay healthy, strong, and beautiful.
We hope you enjoy finding the right oil dosage and especially that “yeah, got it” feeling when you find exactly the right dosage for you!
