1. How to use Dr.Leo acne buster ?(Dr. Leo Acne Drying Lotion)

This is your ultimate overnight weapon for stubborn pimples and deep bumps. Because it features a specialized bi-phase formula designed to target specific spots, application requires one absolute rule: Do not shake the bottle.

How to Apply Acne Drying Lotion Step by Step

• Step 1: Let the bottle sit on a flat surface until the liquid and powder fully separate into two distinct layers.
• Step 2: After finishing your cleansing (or basic skincare) routine, dip a clean cotton swab straight down into the pink powder layer at the bottom.
• Step 3: Pull the swab straight out and dab it directly onto the active pimple.

How Long Should You Leave Drying Lotion On?

• Leave the treatment on the skin for at least 1 hour or overnight.
• In the morning, rinse off gently with lukewarm water. Do not scrub or rub harshly to remove the pink residue, as the dried powder will dissolve easily with water.

How to Remove Drying Lotion Without Irritating Skin

• Shaking the bottle before use: If the layers mix, the product won't work correctly. If shaken, simply place the bottle on a flat surface and wait for the powder to completely settle to the bottom again before using.
• Applying all over the face: This is a strict, concentrated spot treatment.
• Layering over retinol: To prevent severe dryness, peeling, or barrier irritation, do not mix or layer this product with retinol treatments on the same area.

2. How to Use Dr. Leo Volcano Clay Stick for Clogged Pores

Perfect for targeting excess sebum and clearing clogged pores in the T-zone without the mess of traditional clay masks. It is designed to glide on smoothly and rinse off clean.

How Long Should You Leave a Clay Stick Mask On?

• Step 1: Cleanse your face first to remove surface oil, dirt, and sunscreen.
• Step 2: Leave your skin slightly damp. Apply the clay stick evenly across the T-zone and any other pore-prone areas.

How to Remove:

• Leave the formula on your skin for 5–10 minutes until it sets.
• Rinse thoroughly with plenty of water, using gentle, circular motions with your fingertips to dissolve the clay completely.

How to Wash Off a Clay Stick Mask Properly

• Applying to completely dry skin: The stick needs slight moisture on the skin surface to glide smoothly without tugging.
• Scrubbing too hard: Gentle application and removal are all it takes to activate the volcano clay.
• Using it to remove makeup: This is a deep-cleansing skin treatment, not a makeup remover. Always remove makeup before use.

3. How to Apply Dr. Leo Amazonian White Clay Mask

Your intensive weekly treatment designed to draw out stubborn impurities, surface blackheads, and instantly reset your skin's clarity

How Often Should You Use a Clay Mask?

• Step 1: After cleansing, apply an even, smooth layer to clean, dry skin.
• Step 2: Spread it carefully across the face, making sure to avoid the sensitive eye area.

How to Remove a Clay Mask Without Drying Your Skin

• Leave the mask on for 10–15 minutes, then rinse thoroughly with warm water until the skin is completely clear
• Post-Removal Tip: If any blackheads have been drawn to the skin surface after rinsing, gently use a clean cotton swab to wipe them away.
• Frequency: Use only 1–2 times per week.

⚠️ Crucial Warnings (What to Avoid):

• Leaving it on until it fully cracks and hurts: Do not let the mask dry out completely until it feels tight or painful. Remove it while it is still slightly tacky to prevent stripping your skin's natural moisture.
• Using it too often because skin looks cleaner right away: Overusing deep detox masks will compromise your skin barrier. Stick strictly to 1–2 times per week for long-term skin health.
