I know the HY-OL and Phytoactives are a 2-step routine, but how do they work?
Are you supposed to cleanse with the oil, wash, and then re-cleanse with the Phytoactive - or - do you use the Phytoactive to emulsify the oil rather than using water??
Thanks for ya help! |

I went to St.Domingo last July and spent the money that I won at casino at the spa everyday. My body & face were spoiled for 5 days and taken care of well after staying 3,4 hours at the beach. The spa intropduced me with this cleanser during the session.
First apply HY-OL (oil-soluble phase) on to the dry skin and massage to cleanses the pores,dirt, any excess sebum then apply Phytoactive (water-soluble phase) over the HY-OL and blend them well. Moisten your fingers with cool water and emulsify untill a milky emulsion is formed. This method produces an outstanding cleasing effect without leaving the dryness. But I feel like there is still oil left on my skin, so I use Dermalogica cleaser after this to have a extra fresh feel. I've used it everynight since last july,there is still one month supply left. It lasts a long time. |

I had a sample of the Babor duo and really liked it! I already like the Decleor cleansing oil but I felt that this was better. I applied one, then the other, then emulsified with water and then rinsed

| You use the cleansing oil to massage first, then pump phytoactive to add to the oil and continue to massage, then add some water to emulsify and rinse off. |
