BEAUTY GUIDE
Why is skin cleansing so important?
C◗Cleansing is the first step
Facial cleansing is a basic element of women's
beauty regime.It is a prerequisite for proper
skincare.Cleansing the face prepares the skin for
other treatments such as moisturising,deep
cleansing or nourishing.
If you do not cleanse your skin properly,the pores
may clog up,possibly causing blackheads or
blemishes,or a residue may develop which slows
down the natural process of sloughing off skin
cells.
◗The benefits of exfoliation
The purpose of exfoliating is to remove dead skin
cells to reveal a radiant,youthful skin.Exfoliation
makes room at the skin's surface to allow the
deeper layer of newer,less dry skin cells to reach
the surface of the skin.Dried-up skin cells left on
the surface of the skin too long can produce a
dull,uneven and flaky layer.
Removing these dead skin cells can make a huge
difference to the appearance of the face and
lends a fresher look to the skin.The more you
stimulate the normal process of exfoliation of skin
cells,the less cell debris can fill up and clog the
pores,the easier blackheads can be removed and
the more radiant your skin will look.
ENGLISH4

Thus,a thorough but gentle facial cleansing is
essential to preserve your skin by preventing skin
breakouts and by keeping your skin healthier.
How doesVisapure guarantee an optimal
(thorough and gentle) cleansing?
Together with the Philips Personal Care Institute
(a network of research and testing institutes
around the world) and dermatologists,we
carefully develop our Philips beauty products to
help make women's beauty routine more
effective and more enjoyable.
C◗Unique brushes
The newVisapure has specially developed soft
brushes which gently rotate to deeply cleanse
your skin.They can be used every day with your
regular cleansing product or for special intensive
cleansing.The brushes remove dirt and dead skin
cells,leaving your skin smooth and radiant.
C◗Soft Pressure Sensor
A built-in system automatically adjusts the
pressure of the brush on your face to guarantee
optimal and gentle cleansing.Two different
intensity settings are available:you can use the soft
setting (left) for a gentle treatment and the
intensive setting (right) for a deeper cleansing.
These settings also allow you to adjust the
intensity of the treatment to the sensitivity of
your skin,the soft setting being more pleasant on
a sensitive skin.
