The Dermoplant Protocol
Dermoplant offers you natural, organic skin care products with long-lasting effects for all skin, types at any age, and with any issue you might encounter. While the quality of the ingredients, texture and concentration are important, applying our cosmetics in the correct way plays a significant role in achieving the best results possible.
By choosing the range that addresses the particular needs of your skin and following consistently the right protocols, you will not only be giving your skin the care that it needs but it will maximise the impact of any other products you apply.
There are studies suggesting that because our skin’s metabolism slows overnight, the self exfoliation rhythm drops off and regeneration needs a boost. This is why making time for a beauty ritual right before bedtime is not a luxury but a necessity and it will give your body the best conditions in which to regenerate and heal.
Each of our ranges address a specific need or issue, so the beauty rituals might differ. Also, some of our products, like Céleste Tonic lotion or Céleste Make-up remover are formulated to be used at all ages, and this is why sometimes the ranges overlap in the same ritual.
Complete protocol of the HydraIntense range
The HydraIntense range is made to boost hydration, which helps to prevent the signs of ageing by actively fighting against cell dehydration.The range nourishes, moisturizes, and protects the skin on the surface as well as in depth and it is intended to be used after the age of 30 or when the first signs of ageing appear.
Steps to follow
1. Cleaning
Purpose – To prepare your skin to be fully receptive to the next treatment. It is important to clean your skin every day to remove impurities, but in a gentle way, in order to respect its balance and protect the natural layer of sebum which plays an essential role of protection. We added active ingredients in our makeup remover so it has not only a functional role, but also to start the skin care process from the first step.
Product to use – Céleste Cleansing Milk – Quick view
When – Cleaning should always be the first step in your beauty ritual, especially at the end of the day, even if you didn’t wear make-up. If your skin is properly cleaned in the evening, you can skip this step in the morning skin care session.
How – The best way to do it is in the shower. Put a dollop of Céleste Cleansing Milk in your palms and gently massage your wet face and neck, then rinse generously with clear water. You can repeat the process if you wear heavy silicone make-up. Finish with drying your skin by gently patting it with a clean cotton cloth or fine tissue.
2. In-depth cleaning
Purpose – To help the exfoliation process of your skin in order to accelerate the regeneration process and prepare the skin to be fully receptive to the regular treatment or an occasional one. Céleste Scrub will gently remove dead cells and surface impurities without affecting the skin’s natural protective thin layer. As with all of our products, we added active ingredients in this one too, for a multifunctional approach. This step is meant to accelerate cell renewal and to moisturize while refining the skin surface and preparing it for other layers of care.
Product to use – Céleste Gentle Scrub – Quick view
When – This step should be used only occasionally as part of the ritual care, ideally once a month and not more than 2 times per month just after the cleansing step.
How – Wet your face, then put a dollop of Céleste Gentle Exfoliating Scrub on your palm and gently massage your face for approximately 2 minutes insisting on the oily areas, neck, and neckline. Rinse with clear water and dry by gently patting with a clean cotton cloth or a soft tissue.
3. Toning
Purpose – This step helps close pores and tighten cell gaps after cleansing, reducing the penetration of impurities and environmental contaminants into the skin. While protecting and removing chlorine and minerals present in tap water, our toner also acts like a moisturizer, boosting the cells in order to receive the next layers of care and intensify their effects.
Product to use – Céleste Tonic Lotion – Quick view
When – In the morning before HydraIntense Cream and in the evening before HydraIntense Serum.
How – Place 2-3 drops of Céleste Toner Lotion into palms and apply on the face, neck, and neckline, gently massaging until the whole surface is treated.
4. Boosting
Purpose – In this step, the skin will receive a powerful boost of hydration that will help it regain its balance in a short amount of time. The result: visibly smoothed and harmonized skin.
Product to use – HydraIntense Serum – Quick view
When – As sebum production is more intense during the night, the best time to apply a serum is in the evening. If the skin is severely dehydrated, apply in the morning as well, before HydraIntense Cream.
How – Put a drop or two of HydraIntense Serum on your hands and spread it around the eyes on the face, neck, and neckline. To obtain a better result, wait for absorption before passing to the next step.
5. Emolliation
Purpose – To moisturize and prevent the aging process of the skin while providing an extra emollient layer which will protect the skin from external aggressions during the day.
Product to use – HydraIntense Cream – Quick view
When – We firmly believe that using HydraIntense Cream in the morning is sufficient for skin care if it is applied daily. In order to let the skin perform its natural process of sebum production, it is not necessary to apply cream in the evening. That way, the skin breathes freely during the resting period and the creation of sebum is not inhibited. (An application of HydraIntense Serum is perfectly sufficient in the evening, as its waterless formula and its active ingredients deeply penetrate the skin and do not obstruct the pores.)
How – One press on the HydraIntense pump will release the sufficient dose to spread on the face, neck, and neckline. Gently massage from downwards to upwards until absorption is complete.
Complete protocol of the Céleste range
A natural alternative to botox, with the same effectiveness, but no side effects, the Céleste range is made to help rejuvenate mature (over 45 years old) and tired skin. The Céleste care protocol has been formulated to provide deep moisturizing and a visible lifting effect.
The active ingredients in Céleste skin care products reduce the size and depth of wrinkles, plump the skin from the inside by strengthening the skin’s own structure, and relax the contraction of fine muscles to delay ageing.

How – Place 2-3 drops of Céleste Toner Lotion into palms and apply on the face, neck, and neckline, gently massaging until the whole surface is treated.
4. Lifting boost
Purpose – To rejuvenate aged skin with an instant lifting effect by strengthening skin’s own structure and reducing the length and depth of wrinkles. Its moisturizing and smoothing power is reinforced by the application of Céleste Lifting Cream.
Product to use – Céleste Lifting Serum – Quick view
When – As sebum production is more intense during the night, the best time to apply a serum is in the evening. If the skin is severely affected by age, apply in the morning as well, before Céleste Cream.
How – Put a drop or two of Céleste Serum on fingertips and spread onto face, neck, and neckline. To obtain a better result, wait for it to penetrate the skin before going to the next step.
5. Emolliation
Purpose – This step serves to actively fight against ageing by reducing wrinkles, toning the skin, and illuminating your face. The emollient action of the cream protects the skin against free radicals and daily aggressions. The active ingredients penetrate quickly and provide hydration, leaving skin supple and soft without leaving any oily residue.
Product to use – Céleste Lifting Cream – Quick view or Céleste Lifting Winter Cream – Quick view
When – We firmly believe that using Céleste Lifting Cream in the morning is sufficient if it is applied daily. In order to let the skin maintain and subsequently perform its natural process of sebum production, it is not necessary to apply cream in the evening. That way, the skin breathes freely during the resting period and the production of sebum is not inhibited. (An application of Céleste Lifting Serum is perfectly sufficient in the evening for most skin types. Its waterless formula and its active ingredients deeply penetrate the skin and do not obstruct the pores.) However, for severely dehydrated skin or skin affected by old age, a twice a day application of the Céleste Lifting Cream could be necessary. To find out if that is the case, start with applying the cream once a day for one week, observe the results and then progress to two applications per day if you feel that your skin requests more.
For severely dehydrated skin, we have formulated the Winter version of Céleste Lifting Cream, intended to be used on skin with “winter-like” behaviour. It brings an extra emollient effect and it is particularly recommended for when the natural production of sebum has stopped or is very low. To identify correctly the soothing needs of your skin, start by using Céleste Lifting Cream and observe the effects. If the skin feels dry after two hours or less from application, it might be a sign that Céleste Lifting Cream Winter might be needed.
How – One pump press releases the dose of Céleste Lifting Cream that we think is sufficient to spread on the face, neck, and neckline. Gently massage from downwards to upwards until absorption is completed.
Complete protocol of the Céleste range
The CicArgent therapeutic line is formulated to be a deeply healing and calming care protocol for problematic skin. It not only helps manage and heal acne, rashes, and irritations but also other problems that affect sensitive skin. With a focus on healing and deep cure action, this line is designed to help restore skin’s natural balance and strength. CicArgent products are meant to be used to cure and for a few months only, until the correct balance is restored, the skin has regained its functions as a protective barrier of the body, and it is ready to receive other types of cosmetic care.
We do not recommend the use of an exfoliation step in the treatment of damaged skin. Scrubs irritate acne-prone skin type unnecessarily. Irritation of acne-prone skin leads to worsening acne lesions.

You can repeat the process if you wear heavy silicone make-up. Finish with drying your skin by gently patting it with a clean cotton cloth or fine tissue.
Toning
Purpose – Using a toning lotion when you have blemished skin is essential as it improves the overall condition of the skin and prepares it for the application of serums and creams. The toner is used after the cleansing and make-up removal, to perfect the elimination of impurities that obstruct the pores and prevent the epidermis from oxygenation. This step helps close pores and tighten cell gaps after cleansing, reducing the penetration of impurities and environmental contaminants into the skin. While protecting and removing chlorine and minerals present in tap water, our toner also acts like a moisturizer, boosting the cells in order to receive the next layers of care and intensify their effects.
Product to use – Céleste Tonic Lotion – Quick view
When – In the morning, before applying CicArgent Cream and in the evening, before CicArgent Serum.
How – Place 2-3 drops of Céleste Toner Lotion into palms and apply to the face, neck, and neckline, gently massaging until the whole surface is treated.
Treatment
Purpose – To smooth and resorb the imperfections developed such as blackheads or blemishes, while deeply hydrating the skin. This step helps accelerate healing and reduce inflammation while calming itching or stinging sensations associated with rashes and irritations. Ultimately, the treatment refines the appearance of skin and restores radiance.
Product to use – CicArgent Serum – Quick view
When – Best to be applied in the evening. The waterless formula, with a high concentration of active ingredients, works best during sleep while your own skin healing processes are more intense. If the skin is severely dehydrated or heavily affected, apply in the morning as well, before CicArgent Cream.
How – Put a drop or two of CicArgent Serum on fingertips with the dropper and spread on the face, neck, and neckline. To obtain a better result, wait for it to penetrate the skin before going to the next step.
Treatment consolidation and emolliation
Purpose – To moisturize and repair the skin while providing an emollient layer which will protect the skin from external aggressions during the day.
Product to use – CicArgent Cream – Quick view
When – Apply preferably in the morning, on toned skin. Applying CicArgent Cream in the morning is sufficient for skin care if it is applied daily. Especially avoid layering it on oily skin in the evening, as it is necessary to let the skin act naturally, and the creation of sebum should not be inhibited. However, if the skin is severely dehydrated or affected by age and the sebum production is low, you can use the cream in the evening too.
How – A dose of CicArgent Cream released by a single pump press is sufficient to spread on the face, neck, and neckline. Gently massage from downwards to upwards until absorption is completed.
