Your 5-Step Starter Regimen
Step 1 — Cleanse — Advanced Foaming Cleanser
What it is: AHA/BHA exfoliating face wash for oily, congested-looking skin.
Why it’s here: Creates a fresh, clean starting point by helping remove excess oil, daily debris, and surface buildup.
Step 2 — Tone — Environmental Defense Toner Mist
What it is: Refreshing toner mist included as a complimentary gift when Steps 1, 3 & 4 are purchased together.
Why it’s here: Helps the routine feel more complete by softening, refreshing, and preparing the skin after cleansing.
Step 3 — Refine — Pore Perfector
What it is: Refining support for oily, congested, or visibly clogged-looking skin.
Why it’s here: Targets the look of congestion and shine after cleansing and misting, without making the starter routine feel overly aggressive.
Step 4 — Hydrate — Tea Tree Hydrating Gel
What it is: Lightweight hydration for oily, congested, or shiny-looking skin.
Why it’s here: Oily skin still needs hydration. This step helps skin feel balanced without a heavy or greasy finish.
Step 5 — Protect — Sun Guard – Tinted
What it is: Char-recommended daytime finish — or use your own SPF.
Why it’s here: Sun protection is a must either way when using this regimen during the day, especially with exfoliating and refining steps.
