WHICH Y-prescription is right for You?

We’ve made it easy to know which Y products are right for you and the skincare regime to follow, according to whether you have mature/ageing skin, dry skin, normal skin, combination skin or oily skin.  There are also instructions for baby skincare. Skincare for men instructions appear below. 

How would you describe your skin?

Remember that you won’t need to use much.  Y products don’t contain fillers and extenders, so a little goes a long way. 
 

In the morning, first soften your beard / stubble by massaging in a little 503 BALANCE Jojoba.  About enough to cover a 5c coin should be sufficient.  Do not rinse off.  Put a little 102 CLEAN onto wet hands, rub palms together to create a light foam.  Apply to skin (over the 503 BALANCE) then shave as usual.  Lightly rinse. 

Follow with a TFH, either a light spray directly onto the face, or by soaking a cotton wool ball and wiping it over.  If an anti-age treatment is required, follow with 600 SMOOTH - you should be able to feel your skin plump up and tighten as you apply the serum.  Its very low oil content makes it suitable even for oily skin types but it is concentrated, so be sparing (two pumps will plenty for the eye and neck area). Finish with 502 HYDRATE moisturiser. 

In the evening, gently wash away the effects of the day with your 102 CLEAN Foaming Cleanser.  Lightly spray 402 CLARIFY or 403 CLEAR directly onto face and neck (or onto a cotton pad to wipe over face if preferred).  Finish with a light application of 502 HYDRATE. 

Morning and night, use your 700 SMOOTH Hand and Body Lotion all over your body for luxurious smooth skin that has the faintest scent of chocolate! 

Gently exfoliate and polish your skin with 200 BUFF once per week (or as needed, but it is important not to over-use).  This non abrasive skin polish with marine extracts is simply amazing for brightening and refreshing skin.  Apply to clean, dry skin, do not moisten skin first.  Massage into skin until absorbed, paying particular attention to the t-zone or other problem areas.  The mechanical action of the fingers is important for achieving the right results.  Wet hands and lather up the full face, before washing away with tepid water. Follow with your TFH and the rest of the routine.

As required, give your skin some TLC with a clarifying deep cleanse using the 302 DEEP Clarifying Mask right after using your cleanser. Follow on with TFH and the rest of your routine. 

TIP We recommend you use a light application of 503 BALANCE Jojoba (instead of moisturiser) the night before you intend to give yourself a mask or exfoliate - it is great for softening the hard oily "plugs" in blackheads and whiteheads, so they are more easily drawn out.
