Skincare Stripped: Microbiome Kit Instructions

We are so grateful for your participation in our Skincare Stripped Campaign. Together we are advancing microbiome research and accelerating new skincare technologies that will treat your skin from the inside out. 

We expect this test experience to take a total of 7 days from start to finish. 

Here are your instructions: 

Day 1: 

P.M. Do not apply any skincare products before going to sleep the night before you begin the regimen. You may wash your face and remove any makeup, but refrain from using any product. 

Day 2:

A.M. Do not use any water or apply any skincare products to your face. Use swab #1 first thing in the morning and apply only Dr. EJ skincare products after swabbing. Watch the swab procedure instructional video for more information. Refrain from using any hair products that will come into contact with your face until the study is complete. 

Day 2 to Day 7:

Continue to only use Dr. EJ skincare products and refrain from using any hair products that will come into contact with your face until the study is complete. 

Day 8:

A.M. Do not use any water or apply any skincare products to your face. Use swab #2 first thing in the morning. Afterwards, you can continue your original skincare routine.
