A skincare routine for fine lines and firmness
A routine for fine lines pairs antioxidants and firming products in the morning with a retinyl serum and peptides at night. Leica's routine uses Rejuvi 'x'-Cell Vitamin C Complex, Rejuvi 't' Bio-Firming Gel and Rejuvi 'g' AHA Cream Normal by day, and Rejuvi 'a' Retinyl Serum with Rejuvi 'n' Bio Rejuvenating Complex by night.
Who this routine is for
It is for fine lines, loss of firmness, crepey texture or skin that simply looks tired.
Morning
- Cleanse with Rejuvi 'k' Facial Cleanser, massaged onto dry skin and rinsed with lukewarm water.
- Tone with Rejuvi 'r' Skin Refreshener.
- Protect with Rejuvi 'x'-Cell Vitamin C Complex: three to five drops, massaged in briefly.
- Firm with Rejuvi 't' Bio-Firming Gel: a thin layer, left to dry completely before the next step.
- Moisturize with Rejuvi 'g' AHA Cream Normal, avoiding the eye area, then finish with sunscreen.
Evening and once a week
- Cleanse with the 'k' Facial Cleanser. For a thorough clean, cleanse twice.
- Treat with Rejuvi 'a' Retinyl Serum: a few drops, absorbed fully before the next step. Avoid the eye and lip area. Start every other night or a couple of nights a week, and keep it in the fridge if you don't use it daily.
- Peptides: Rejuvi 'n' Bio Rejuvenating Complex, applied daily, preferably at night.
- Night cream: Rejuvi 'n' Night Cream Normal, massaged in with gentle upward strokes.
- Once a week: Rejuvi Facial Firming Mask. Brush it onto cleansed skin, leave it for 5 to 10 minutes without letting it dry, then rinse well.
The right order to apply products
Go thinnest to thickest: toner, serums and gels, then cream. Let each serum absorb before the next layer, and put sunscreen on last in the morning.
Rejuvi suggests an AHA treatment in the morning when you use the retinyl serum at night, which is why the AHA cream sits in the morning here. Start both slowly, two or three times a week, adding one at a time. AHAs can increase sun sensitivity, and both should stop two to three days before a facial or peel.
What to expect and the facial that pairs with it
Skin often looks smoother and brighter in the first weeks. Firmness and fine lines change gradually, over two to three months of steady use.
The routine pairs with The 90, which starts at $195 and includes two enhancements, such as microcurrent, thermal tightening or a peptide firming mask. Leica can help you choose the two based on your goals.
