How-To: Ruhaku's 6-Step Okinawan Beauty Routine
The Ruhaku lineup features age-defying Gettou shell ginger and a host of organic Japanese botanicals. The full line was developed to offer a thorough beauty routine that gets the most out of these little-known yet time-tested ingredients. See the complete routine below and learn how they can fit into your own beauty ritual.
STEP 1
REMOVE with Gettou Reset Cleansing Oil -
Start off your routine by gently removing any make-up and grime while letting your skin breathe and relax.
To Use:
Add a small amount of cleanser to dry hands (around 2 - 3 pumps). Spread across your face using a circular motion. Add a bit of warm water and lightly emulsify. Once sufficiently cleaned, rinse face with warm water. We suggest following this up with a facial cleanser.
STEP 2
CLEANSE with Gettou Clear Soap -
Clean accumulated sebum and dirt from your pores by lathering up with a mild soap that balances oil, preserves moisture, and leaves skin looking radiant.
To Use:
Pre-rinse your makeup-free face with warm water to open pores. Create a rich lather by rubbing the soap between your palms. Gently massage your face with the soap using a washcloth if you prefer a deeper exfoliation. Rinse thoroughly with warm water.
STEP 3
MOISTURIZE with Gettou Balance Lotion -
With skin thoroughly cleansed, it’s time to lock in your skin’s natural moisture with a lightweight lotion. Gettou Balance Lotion is perfect for people with sensitive or dry skin and is strong enough to stand up to the arid conditions in fall and winter.
To Use:
Take a quarter-sized amount of lotion in your hands or use a cotton pad if you prefer. Smooth over your face until you feel that it has been adequately absorbed.
STEP 4
PROTECT with Gettou Day Moist Cream
Gettou Day Moist Cream can be used throughout the day to create a protective barrier that wards off environmental stressors. Take it with you to soften skin while leaving no tacky residue.
To Use:
Add 3 - 5 drops to a clean palm. With the fingertips of your opposite hand, gently massage the cream onto your forehead, nose, cheeks, and chin, making sure to focus on areas where drying is of particular concern.
STEP 5
REPAIR with Gettou Night Repair Oil -
Take full advantage of your beauty rest with a restorative serum that helps to repair dry, age-prone skin. Cold-pressed oils penetrate deeply to gradually improve the firmness and luster of your skin.
To Use:
This healing oil works best when applied to clean skin. With the provided pipette, apply 4-5 drops to the palms of your hands and gently rub them together to warm up the oil. Smooth your palms across your face focusing on age-prone areas. Take the opportunity to give yourself a relaxing face massage!
