How to use

* Use the spatula to scoop two pearl-sized amounts, then dot the cream on the 5 points of the face: forehead, nose, chin, and both cheeks. * Gently smooth the cream outward over your face. Apply an additional pearl-sized amount to your neck, and sweep the cream upward from throat to jawline. * Apply daily as the last step in your morning skincare routine.

Red does not mean poison. Preservatives that stop a product going off, UV filters and fragrance can land on yellow or red depending on their score.

Green does not mean right for you. Skin and allergies differ from person to person. Treat the color as a starting point.
