The Complete Routine

with rice and peony root powders

The first key to healthy skin is to rid the epidermis of everything that clogs it. Makeup removal, although invisible to the naked eye, removes layers of makeup, sebum, and lipophilic sunscreens that accumulate throughout the day.

Starting with a powdery texture that is gentle yet effective helps maintain the skin's balance while beginning a deep cleansing process.

This step paves the way for complete purification without damaging or drying out the skin.

Double cleansing, a refined legacy of Asian traditions, consists of first removing makeup and then cleansing with water.

This second step removes hydrophilic impurities (dust, perspiration, pollution) and any residue from the makeup remover, leaving the skin perfectly clean, soothed, and receptive to subsequent skincare products.

This step is essential for restoring the skin's natural breathing process without compromising its hydrolipidic film.

Freshly cleansed skin is like dry soil: it absorbs water better than cream.

Applying a hydrating lotion immediately restores moisture lost during cleansing and prepares the skin to receive active skincare products. Whether in a light mist or lotion form, it acts as a carrier: active ingredients penetrate deeper, and the skin is plumped up from the very first application.

This step is often overlooked, yet it is fundamental to the effectiveness of the routine.

Often mistaken for a simple toner, micellar vinegar actually plays a profound rebalancing role.

Thanks to its slightly acidic nature, it instantly restores the skin's pH balance disrupted by cleansing, closes pores, and removes traces of hard water.

Perfect as a complement or alternative to hydrating preparations, it energizes the complexion and strengthens the skin barrier, while providing a clarifying sensation of freshness.

It is at this precise moment in the routine that the skin receives its targeted treatment.

Serums and concentrates deliver powerful active ingredients that penetrate deeply to meet the specific needs of the skin: radiance, firmness, uniformity, and regeneration. A good treatment not only transforms the quality of the skin, but also its immediate appearance.

In the tradition of dermocosmetics, this step is considered the "masterful" gesture, the one that determines the effectiveness of the routine.

with squalene, jojoba oil, and vegetable glycerin

No routine is complete without a final moisturizing step. It seals in all the previous treatments, strengthens the skin barrier, and ensures lasting comfort throughout the day or night.

Good hydration does more than just nourish: it protects, balances, and enhances. In the COTTAN tradition, this step is inspired by textures from the past—light, melt-in-the-mouth, yet infinitely nourishing.

with vegetable glycerin, shea butter, and marshmallow root

Often overlooked, our hands are nevertheless the primary messengers of our daily lives. Exposed to cold, water, friction, and external aggressions, they deserve special attention.

Incorporating a specific treatment into your routine, morning and evening or during the day, helps to repair, nourish, and preserve their beauty over the long term.

A true extension of facial care, this comforting kalodermal gesture soothes dry skin, beautifies contours, and offers a delicate signature scent. A useful, sensory, essential caress.
