How to use
The Modern Minimalist Regimen
For use in AM: Apply 2-3 pumps of Cleansing Serum, massaging into moistened face working into a lather to dissolve dirt and makeup. Rinse with lukewarm water and pat dry. Next, apply 2-3 pumps of Sake Nourishing Essence to face and neck with your hands, a cotton pad, or gauze for mild exfoliation. Finish by smoothing 2-4 pumps of Weightless Oil-Free Moisturizer face and neck with upward strokes.
For use in PM: Follow AM routine but apply Retinol Reform to dry skin after Sake Toning Essence and before Weightless Oil-Free Moisturizer. Start with 1-2 times per week and gradually increase as skin tolerates.

The cleansing serum smells good, works very well and doesn't dry out the skin. The toning essence doesn't strip the skin. The oil-free moisturizer is wonderful. It does not leave a greasy feeling and provides moisture throughout the day. I have been using the products for a couple of weeks and my family has commented that my face is glowing.

I love the cleansing serum and toner so much. My skin feels so nice after using them. The moisturizer is good too, sometimes i feel like i need more, because my skin is so dry, but overall i do love this routine and will continue using it

I really like the soft lather of the cleanser but I don’t love the smell. The toner seems like it’s doing what it’s supposed to but I have normal-dry skin and it’s depleting my skin of moisture. In addition to the moisturizer, I have to add another product to put more moisture to my face because it’s sooo dry. I’m disappointed the set didn’t work 100% for me but I plan to try more products from other companies in addition to this set to see if I can get the moisture my skin needs.
