Topic 6 HANDLING OBJECTIONS SECTION 1: TYPICAL CLIENT CONCERNS ACTIVITY When recommending the Skin EssentiA Range to clients, you may encounter some typical client concerns. Some of the questions and queries a client may have: Q Q Q How is it possible for my teenager to start on the same moisturizer as me? I would like to add some of the Skin EssentiA products to my current skincare brand of choice. Will the Skin EssentiA Range be enough for my skin? Q I have never used a pre-cleanser before; is it really necessary? Q Q For my mature skin I prefer an eye cream - will an eye gel be sufficient? How long will these moisturizers last? 32 LEARNER WORKBOOK

Topic 7 QUESTIONS & ANSWERS Q A Q A Q A Q A How is it possible for my teenager to start on the same moisturizer as me? All skin types need to follow the same vitamin A step-up procedure. This Range is aimed at normalizing the appearance of any skin abnormality but all skin types need to be eased onto the vitamin A moisturizers to avoid a retinoid reaction. I would like to add some of the Skin EssentiA products to my current skincare brand of choice. This is not ideal. The Skin EssentiA Range is carefully designed to be used together as a complete skincare program. The formulations complement one another and work synergistically towards creating beautiful, healthy-looking skin. Will the Skin EssentiA Range be enough for my skin? Yes. Skin EssentiA moisturizers are aimed at normalizing the appearance of any skin abnormality and are, therefore, essential for creating healthy-looking skin. Should your skin, however, require more intensive support for a specific skin concern, it is recommended to combine the Skin EssentiA Range with the appropriate product/s from the Environ Specialist Range segments. I have never used a pre-cleanser before; is it really necessary? Preparing the skin is as important as feeding it. When the skin is prepared correctly it allows for the ingredients that follow to be more effective. A pre-cleansing oil effectively cleanses the skin, dissolving any oily surface residue without stripping the skin of its natural oils. The skin will already start looking nourished and refreshed only after this simple step. SKIN ESSENTIA 37
Q A Q A For my mature skin I prefer an eye cream - will an eye gel be sufficient? Absolutely. This eye gel is packed with a powerful combination of vitamins, peptides and antioxidants that assists in softening the appearance of fine lines. This sophisticated gel also contains Panthenol, which is super hydrating and soothing and is gentle enough for sensitive eyes. How long will these moisturizers last? As far as possible, we do not add preseratives to our formulations, therefore our products have a limited shelf life of 10-12 weeks once opened. Environ believes that our products should contain limited amounts of preservatives for consumers to achieve the best results. If your moisturizer lasts longer than the recommended period after opening, it is most likely that you are not following the optimal way of application. 38 LEARNER WORKBOOK
