New Customers! (Please Read)
Thank you for trying Skin By Yani. I am Happy that you made the decision to switch to plant-based skin care. However, it is not a good idea to buy a whole skin care routine and start using all of your new products all at once. Your face can go into shock and this will result in breakouts and other unpleasant skin reactions.
Transitioning into new skin care products:
Similar to any big change in life, new products should be transitioned into your current skin care routine, one product at a time.
I always recommend starting with a cleanser, toner, or astringent. Use the new product for 2-4 weeks along with your current products. Once your skin is adjusted, this product has earned its way into your routine and it is safe to add in the next new product using the same protocol.
Example:
You currently use a cleanser, toner, serum, and moisturizer from a different company but you want to switch over to all of my products instead. In this case, you would only stop using your current cleanser and start using one of my cleansers, along with the rest of your old products. After a few weeks of using my cleanser, you can move on to the next product that you want to replace in your old routine. You would keep repeating the same process for each product, replacing each product one at a time, until your entire old routine is in the trash.
A complete routine swap should take anywhere from 4 - 6 months.
Even when transitioning, you may still experience a breakout with your new products. That is because your skin is literally detoxing and getting rid of the old toxins and bacteria. Your skin will get worse before it gets better. Nothing yields positive results immediately. Thats why having the patience to transition is so important.
As always, feel free to hit my contact tab if you have any questions on the transitioning process.
