Some helpful tips from the Nimue team

THE BEST WAY TO APPLY AN EYE CREAM

The skin around the eye area is very delicate and it is essential to apply your eye cream correctly. Always apply gently with your ring finger on the upper and lower lid following the bone area of the eyes.

APPLY EXCESS PRODUCT ON THE BACK OF HANDS

After applying your serum and moisturiser to your face, apply any excess product left to the back of your hands for younger and more even toned skin. After all, your hands tend to give away your age.

PAIRING NIMUE’S PROFESSIONAL TREATMENTS WITH HOMECARE PRODUCTS IMPROVES SKIN HEALTH

Combining homecare products with professional treatments results in a 50% improvement in visible results. Professional treatments also enhance the penetration of active ingredients in prescribed homecare products.

NIMUE RECOMMENDS GUAZE INSTEAD OF COTTON WOOL

Gauze effectively removes any traces of makeup and delicately assists in the natural exfoliation action of the skin, leaving skin feeling fresh and clean. Cotton wool absorbs more product than gauze which leads to product wastage and is less hygienic than gauze.

WHAT DAMAGES MY SKIN BARRIER AND HOW DO I PROTECT IT?

Medication, sun exposure, air conditioners, harsh product use, excessive hot or cold temperatures are factors that damage the skin barrier.
Nimue’s Element Barrier moisturises the upper layer of your skin and provides long lasting hydration thereby protecting your natural skin barrier.

WHY DOES MY SKIN NEED MORE MOISTURE IN WINTER?

External influences such as heaters and cold temperatures dehydrate the skin, and therefore extra hydration is needed.
Nimue’s Super Hydrating Serum provides intense hydration and restores the skin’s suppleness.

HOW DO I TREAT AGE SPOTS?

Natural skin ageing, as well as sun damage from earlier years show up as “age spots” on the skin. Nimue’s Fade Treatment reduces appearance of sun and age spots.

WHY DO I AGE SO QUICKLY AROUND MY EYES?

The delicate skin around the eyes has very little fatty tissue which reduces with the ageing process, thereby loosing volume or plumpness.

MY EYES ARE ALWAYS PUFFY AND I HAVE DARK CIRCLES, HOW CAN I IMPROVE THIS?

Puffiness and dark circles may develop because of toxin build up and genetic pre-disposition. Nimue’s Eye Serum helps to brighten the area around the eye, reducing wrinkles and dark circles.

HOW TO APPLY NIMUE ENVIRONMENTAL SHIELD SPF 50 CORRECTLY?

Apply a pea size and massage gently into the face, neck and decollate for 30 to 45 seconds.

CAN TOO MUCH SWEAT CAUSE AN OUTBREAK?

While exercise is great for your health, excessive sweating, combined with heat, perspiration, friction and friction can aggravate an acne outbreak on your forehead, chest, back, and other parts of your body.

DO I NEED TO APPLY MOISTURISER IF I HAVE OILY SKIN?

Applying moisturizer on your face is good for your skin because it keeps your skin hydrated and helps to balance the oil production within the skin. If you don’t apply a moisturizer to your skin, it will dry out and trigger your glands to produce more oil. This oil will clog your pores and cause an acne outbreak.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF USING ANTI-AGEING PRODUCTS AT A YOUNG AGE?

Early preventative measures and consistently using the right skincare products for your skin reduces short term and long term effects of ageing. Our qualified Nimue Skincare Therapists will guide you on the correct anti-ageing products for your skin after doing a professional skincare analysis. 

IS A QUALIFIED NIMUE SKINCARE THERAPIST THE SAME AS A BEAUTICIAN?

Skincare therapists are not beauticians. Skincare therapists study for 3 years and are qualified in the health and chemistry of the skin and the health of the skin. Qualified Nimue Skincare Therapists also guide you through various phases of your prescription, educate you on the steps you need to follow as well as the products you need to use to restore and maintain optimal health of your skin.
