How do I use my nimue homecare starterkit?

Go slow! Your new products are active! Here you'll find specific guidelines for nimue starterkits: Environmentally damaged – Hyperpigmented – Problematic

New clients who use nimue often experience a certain imbalance in the skin during the first 4-6 weeks - this we call the transitional period.

Switching to a new skin care brand is not always without problems. No two brands are the same, and this is especially true of nimue, which aims to treat the cause of the skin condition and not just soothe the symptoms or soothe it on the surface. 

The transitional period can begin to show on the skin within the first 2-4 weeks of using nimue home care products, and will usually last up to 4-6 weeks. The symptoms of this period may vary from person to person. Learn more about this transitional period HERE

 

To keep the transitional period short and light, please consider this advice:

Go slow! Don't overwhelm the skin with 5-6 new products in a day or two, it's too many signals, orders and too much new learning for the skin's cells in too short a time. More time and patience is adviced - the skin problems didn't happen in a week and won't go away in a week, so gradually replace the current products with new ones from nimue.
Give the skin time to "digest" the new learning and see this switch as exactly that, a re-education and re-training of the skin to take better care of itself, show what it can do and become more independent!

 

This is how you should start up with nimue on normal, ageing, acne or hyperpigmented skin, either with full size products or the starter kit:

  • Day 1 – Cleansing Gel + (Day) Cream morning and evening + Spf 40 in morning on top of day cream *
  • Day 2 – Cleansing Gel + (Day) Cream morning and evening + Spf 40 in morning on top of day cream
  • Day 3 – Cleansing Gel + (Day) Cream morning and (Night) Cream in the evening + Spf 40 in morning on top of day cream
  • Day 4 – Cleansing Gel + (Day) Cream morning and (Night) Cream in the evening + Spf 40 in morning on top of day cream
  • Day 5 – now it’s time to ad the Exfoliating Enzyme to your weekly routine, can be used any time off the day after cleansing gel and before any cream. Use the peeling 2-3 times a week for perfect smooth skin
  • Day 6 or 7 – Add the Conditioner morning and evening after Cleansing gel and before any cream. On the Exfoliation days, the Conditioner is used after cleanser and BEFORE the Exfoliating Enzyme, the Conditioner is strong, prepares for the enzymes – it’s not just a mild balancing toner 

nimue should only be used as directed by a certified professional nimue practitioner and dealer. You can't guess at a correct nimue programme, it requires advice and constant adaptation and adjustment as you build on the care routine. You start in nimue Phase 1, if all goes well, after 4-6 weeks you will add Phase 2, an extra active night serum and after 2-4 weeks with this addition it will be time for Phase 3 - the really active rejuvenating and renewing Fruit Acid treatments.
