Daily Mail: How you can conjure the secret of eternal youth out of thin air…

July 27, 2010

We’re really proud to appear in today’s Daily Mail!

“Ever wondered how Sir Richard Branson keeps himself so fresh-looking? Obviously, the 60-year-old Virgin billionaire doesn’t exactly have the same stresses and strains as the rest of us (money concerns for one).

But, in fact, he attributes his youthful appearance to Karin Herzog oxygen masks.

Other celebrities who swear by the treatments include the baby-faced Tom Cruise, the super-smooth Kylie Minogue and perennially young Uma Thurman.”

Read the whole article here.

Our face mask product is called Essential Mask, and contains 2% oxygen. It’s a personal fav of ours here at Karin Herzog HQ, we call it our ‘face lift in a tube’ for its ability to make skin firmer, more hydrated and radiant.  It also has a beautiful fresh aromatic fragrance of mandarin, bilberry, grapefruit and orange.

Use once to three times a week, after cleansing the skin. Apply to the face and neck and allow to act for 10mins. Rince off with lukewarm water. If you have very dry skin you can leave the mask to absorb and simple massage in the residue without rinsing.

Try using 10mins before you apply your make-up for a fresh, wide awake glow!

Essential Mask is suitable for all skin types, but if you need help choosing which oxygen face cream is right for you, look at our handy guide.


Choosing an oxygen cream

July 26, 2010

One of the most common questions we get asked (and most important) is ‘which oxygen cream should I use?’. So here’s our handy guide to make sure you pick the right cream for your skin.

Under 30 years – Oxygen Face Cream

30 years + (1st time users, normal, celtic or fine skin) – Vita-A-Kombi 1

30 years + Acne or Breakouts – Vita-A-Kombi 2

30 years + Dry Skin – Vita-A-Apricot

* Ethnic skins should always use a product with 2% Oxygen
* Hormonal Problematic Skin and women approaching, going through or post menopause use Choco2
* Acne skins should always use a product with 2% Oxygen
* For dry skin we recommend to use Vita-A-Kombi Oil under your oxygen cream

How to apply

Apply to clean skin twice a day. Use only a pea sized amount and apply in small dabs to the face and neck. Join the dots and leave to self penetrate.  DO NOT MASSAGE IN: These products have the power to transport deep down into the skin. For optimum potency and efficiency leave to work for at least 2 minutes, after which time, most of the oxygen will have converted to gas, and penetrated the skin.

Once the product has absorbed you can apply additional products or make-up. With regular use the cream will penetrate quicker as the oxygen levels already contained in your skin increases, however it is still safe to massage in any residue after 2 minutes.

If you’re also using one of our tlc products (for instance Vitamin H or Vita-A-Kombi Oil), apply it under your oxygen cream, this means the oxygen will help transport the additional vitamins and ingredients from these products deep into the skin.

Please note: Avoid the hairline when applying Karin Herzog oxygen products, as oxygen will lift the hair colour with continued use.
