Arcona’s Basic 5 Regimen

It has been over a month since my first Arcona facial, and I desperately need to go back. Not only for the facial itself, but to supply myself with the entire line of their products! They gave me samples, and I ran out weeks ago. Of course, I have a ton of other products, so my face was well taken care of, but Arcona’s products have completely changed my skin, and I want to continue on that path. They have a basic 5 regimen that includes a cleanser, moisturizer, exfoliating scrub, a “solution” that regenerates new cells and a toner. There is a myriad of choices to suit your skin type, but the ones I got were the Kiwi Cleansing Bar, Magic White Ice Moisturizer, Golden Grain Gomage scrub, Gentle Solution (cell regenerator) and Desert Mist (a toner that protects against the environment), all of which you get for $198 (all full sizes). Their products are all plant based and are made with a cold process, which is essential to retain the goodness of the ingredients. It makes sense. Just like the vegetables you eat, if you cook them to death they loose all of their nutritional properties. The cold process requires that they produce in very small batches, and that is why the big manufacturers don’t do it. All of Arcona’s products are made in the United States in labs that are under their control. The first change that I have seen, is the brightness of my face. My main problem is proper hydration, and my constant slathering of products has made it dull. After only my second facial, I am a changed woman. I finally have the peachy cream skin I’ve always wanted! Now I just have to get rid of all my freckles, which is in the works, as well. They have a product called Lightening Drops ($35) that pulls pigmentation to the surface and then sluffs off. I will review that after I’ve used it to see if it works.
