How It Works

M OF THE FACE
should be used as a nourishing face mask 2 - 4 times a week. An even layer is applied to the area to be treated (face, throat and décolleté), avoiding the area around the eyes and lips. The mask should be left for 5 to 10 minutes to develop its full effect, then rinsed off thoroughly with warm water. This nourishing mask is the ideal preparation for daytime cosmetics or, used in the evening, gives the skin the necessary cleanliness for a regenerative night's rest. As special care and skin protection, we recommend using M OF THE FACE as an intensive treatment. It can also be used as a mild exfoliant.

Regenerating Mask

During the winter season your skin is weared hard from the dry air of heatings and the permanent changes between outdoor and indoor temperatures. In the summertime the skin often is affected from too much insolation. Here we can recommend to use M OF THE FACE as a cure to regain the natural function of your skin.

As a cure you put on M OF THE FACE every evening for 10 to 15 minutes over a period of 2 weeks. You can intensify the effect of the cure by covering the musk with a transparent film. Please cut out the parts for eyes, mouth and nose. After that wash the face with a lot of warm water.

Pimples and Blackheads

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The M OF THE FACE therapy creates clear skin

Blackheads, pimples and boils are the first stages on the way to pronounced acne. Someone who takes action in good time against these skin impurities, will reduce the risk of acne by several times and thus prevent more severe inflammation. The temptation to squeeze out blackheads and pimples is always great, but in this case the following adage applies: do not touch, because it does more harm than good.

On the other hand, simply waiting would only lead to depressing one's spirits too, because the most affected parts of the skin are those which one can least hide: the face, neck and lower neck.

A therapy with M OF THE FACE is the correct way to achieve clear skin. Its objective is to clean the dirty parts deep into the pores and to prevent reformation by giving sufficient protection. The absolutely natural agents in the mineral brine mud mask form the basis for cleaning skin deep into the pores, when applied regularly. They ensure a well-balanced pH value and regulate the skin's natural, moisture content. The minerals have an antibacterial effect and protect the skin from harmful, environmental influences.

The M OF THE FACE therapy is divided into two units: a five-week, intensive, caring course of treatment for the skin; followed by long-term care. Your customers must know that therapies of this kind are accompanied by a lot of time and patience, because the success will only be clearly visible after several weeks.


The M OF THE FACE therapy against pimples and blackheads.

PART 1
The intensive, caring course of treatment over a period of five weeks.

• Clean the affected parts of the skin with a mineral wash gel in the morning and evening.

• Apply the M OF THE FACE mask in the evening of every third day. Apply the mineral brine peloid onto the affected parts. Allow it to take effect for 20 minutes and rinse off by using a small sponge and a lot of warm water.

• The result will be a clear skin deep into the pores, with a regular moisture content and a balanced pH value.


PART 2
The regular care

Regular, caring application of M OF THE FACE after the five-week course of treatment helps to maintain this worthwhile result.

• Depending on stresses to the skin from external, environmental influences (dust, sun, dry air, stress), the affected parts of the skin (face, neck, lower neck, shoulders and back) are cleaned once or twice daily with a mineral wash gel.

• The M OF THE FACE mask is applied twice weekly onto the same parts of the skin. Allow it to take effect for 20 minutes and rinse off by using a small sponge and a lot of warm water.

Please bear in mind to give advice and support to your customer during the therapy. Make sure that the applications are being correctly and regularly implemented. Success is only guaranteed in this way. It is particularly essential to arrange a consultation including anamnesis, diagnosis and prognosis, after completing the first part.

Acne and Impure Skin

Practical examples for M OF THE FACE applications
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Acne, eczema and impure skin are skin diseases which are caused by a disturbed, intestinal flora on the one hand or by hormonal disturbance – or other factors like air pollution and UV radiation – on the other hand. Poisonous substances which the body cannot process directly, are exuded via the skin; which causes disease of the sebaceous glands. The results are skin impurities, eczema and acne in areas of the face, lower neck and shoulder girdle.

You are confronted with these skin problems over and over again during your daily work. Cosmetic advice, precise treatment and humane care are important for treating acne on the endangered skin which we rate as particularly in need of care but still healthy. However, acne's different degrees of severity as a skin disease require medical therapy. After healing of the acute phase, the cosmetic practitioner can take over the urgently essential aftercare in this case too.

Studio Practice provides you with a successful way to implement a very effective treatment for acne, combined with applying a course of treatment. A sensible adjustment of nutrition and a course of treatment using M OF THE FACE mineral brine mud, helps in a completely natural way. Real miracles can be achieved with this treatment.

You customer should use the M OF THE FACE acne course of treatment to supplement the studio treatment and intensive care at home, initially over a period of four weeks.

The M OF THE FACE is a natural and untreated mud from Salzberg, which is produced by adding natural brine to ground, saline, mud shale during brine extraction in the salt mine. The hydrating property of M OF THE FACE also leads to resupplying water to the cells (remoisturization) which have already dried out. The M OF THE FACE effectively supports the treatment of skin irritations and tissue damage. The M OF THE FACE cleans the face deep into the pores and has an antibacterial effect. The reformation of acne is thus reduced and the skin regenerates in a natural way.



The acne course of treatment with M OF THE FACE

Application of the acne course of treatment stretches over a period of six weeks.

• Clean affected parts of the skin once daily with a mineral wash gel.

• Apply the M OF THE FACE facial mask twice during the first, two weeks. Apply the brine mud mask three times (weekly) from the third week onwards.

• Allow the M OF THE FACE mask to take effect for 25 minutes each time and rinse it off by using a wet, small sponge.

• It is quite possible that the skin's appearance will worsen at the start, but the skin will be visibly improved afterwards. The course of treatment results in a clear skin and clear tone, with a naturally regulated moisture content and a balanced pH value.

Please bear in mind to give advice and support to your customer during the therapy. Make sure that the applications are being correctly and regularly implemented. Success is only guaranteed in this way.

Mature Skin and Wrinkles

The M OF THE FACE anti-aging care

Aging is part of a person's life. A slow and initially inconspicuous aging process already begins from 30 onwards. There is no 'wonder cure' for eternal youth, but one can postpone the appearance of aging somewhat or at least avoid premature aging.

The wrinkles which form over the years are visible signs of time passing by. That is a natural process, which proceeds through various phases and depends on different factors. It begins with fine lines between the nose and mouth, around the eyes and on the forehead: the so-called mimic wrinkles. They arise through constant stress and loss of elasticity in the skin's connective tissue.

The collagen fibres which – together with elastic fibres – run through the connective tissue like a highly ramified network, decrease over the years. This has the result that less moisture can be stored in the skin. The skin is therefore no longer so velvety (silky) and smooth. The skin's ability to constantly renew itself diminishes. The cells of the epidermis divide only half as often for a 50 year-old person as they do in a 20 year-old one. The protective layer is accordingly no longer so intact and strong as it is with younger skin.

The sebaceous and sweat glands in the skin do not work so intensively any more. One can assume that they produce up to one-third less secretion in age than in youth. The skin becomes drier and it forms creased wrinkles as a result. The skin can no longer protect itself against harmful influences, due to the imbalanced pH value.


Start with M OF THE FACE anti-aging care,
a really rejuvenating course of treatment!

The M OF THE FACE facial mask is regularly applied twice weekly to the face, neck and lower neck. The mask should then be allowed to take effect for about 20 minutes. After that, the mineral brine peloid is rinsed off by using a small sponge and lots of warm water. The skin is dabbed dry afterwards.

Moisture in the skin's layers is bound together by means of the mineral brine peloid. The skin becomes visibly smooth as a result. Wrinkles disappear and reformation of wrinkles is prevented. Skin impurities are neutralized. The skin regenerates naturally in this way.

One achieves the most intensive effect by applying the mask after a sauna session or a steam bath, when the pores are wide open. The mask can also be applied three times a week during the first four weeks of the care programme.

You can supplement the anti-aging programme by a care cream from your standard supply. The cream should be selected to suit the respective skin type and be moisturizing. Discuss an exact schedule for the applications with your customer. Regular use is particularly important for the therapy program's success.

Please bear in mind to give advice and support to your customer during the therapy. Make sure that the applications are being correctly and regularly implemented. Success is only guaranteed in this way.

Can M OF THE FACE be used on all skin types?

The application of M OF THE FACE is basically independent of the skin type. It is mainly dependent from the skin problems and the skin conditions a person has but not on the TYPE of skin. Typical skin problems are pimples, blackheads, impure skin, acne, wrinkles.

How does M OF THE FACE act on the skin?

To fight various skin problems M OF THE FACE is an excellent choice because by the process of osmosis the skin is thouroughly cleaned and the skin-metabolism is boosted. During this process body fluids will flow from one cell to another. This exchange of fluids is being regulated by the salt concentration in the cells. Fluids always go from the cell with fewer salt concentration to the ones with the higher salt concentration.

The walls of the cells are only semi-permeable, which means they let come through the water but not the salt. The body and skin are always eager to have a balanced concentration. If you apply M OF THE FACE on your skin the fluids are attracted by the salt and all impurities are swept out. The skin is being stimulated and gets a healthy glow.

What makes M OF THE FACE unique? – Why is it different from deep sea mud?

The salt concentration is much higher in M OF THE FACE as it is in deep sea mud. The osmosis process is therefore more intensive and the beneficial effects on the skin are ore intense.

Another important point is that M OF THE FACE is derived from crystalline salt, which contains all natural elements the human body consists of.

M OF THE FACE is derived from several 100 meters from below ground level deep in the mountains and is thus protected against environmental pollution effects. The problem with deep sea mud is that the oceans are exposed to the growing environmental pollution. These harmful substances are then again to be found in the sea mud products.

On the contrary to sea mud M OF THE FACE contains elements, such as quartz crystals which help to regulate the moisture of the skin. In a very natural way they improve the ability of the skin to absorb and retain water. This results in the skin’s ability to retain moisture longer. So-called anti-wrinkle creams and moisturizing products can be much better absorbed by the skin after the application of M OF THE FACE which means they can act more efficiently on the skin and the skin can better benefit from these products.

How should different types of skin be treated with M OF THE FACE

Looking at the different types of skin it is clear that one skin maybe thinner and more permeable than another type of skin. The osmosis process is much stronger with dry skin (because this type of skin is more permeable) than with other skin types.

Oily or mixed skin is not so permeable by nature and should be pretreatened with a steamer or a damp compress to open up cells before applying the mask. The skin then will be much more receptive to the osmosis process and the benefits that M OF THE FACE provides for you.

How often should I apply M OF THE FACE?

The number of applications of the mask is not dependent of the skin type but of the skin problem. With acne or oily skin for example you can apply the mask as a cure treatment and several times a week.

With normal skin for the beginning apply M OF THE FACE twice a week to clear skin up and after a few weeks 1-2 applications per week are sufficient to maintain the good condition of the skin.
