The Swedish blog Go Green Makeup & Skincare by Jeanette has written how se does her Marina Miracle home facial routine:
1 - Rosehip Peeling Mask
A clay mask containing rosehip, sea buckthorn, sunflower oil, clay and acids and probiotics from broccoli. The peeling grains comes from sugar cane. Rosehip Peeling Mask is recommended for normal / oily / combination skin type. Applied to dry, thoroughly cleansed skin. The mask has a creamy consistency. Leave on for 15-30 minutes.
Towards the end of the working time I apply some drops of water on my fingertips to make the peeling grains easier to massage into skin. Then I rinse with lukewarm water and pat dry with a soft towel. The mask does not dry out the skin, it makes it feel soft and comfortable during the entire duration of the mask. The skin feels soft and without irritation. Although this exfoliating mask is for normal to oily / combination skin type, I think it also works well on my skin with a tendency to get dry.

2 - SHEA HYDRATION MASK
A moisturizing mask with Aloe Vera, white tea, shea butter, rosehip, hemp, mix of fruit and herb extracts in vegetable glycerine. The texture is fluffy and has a scent of green apples. The soft fluffy texture makes it easy to apply on your face. Shea Hydration Mask becomes transparent on the skin. The duration time is 15-30 minutes, or even overnight. Rinse off with lukewarm water. My skin absorbs this mask so it's usually not that much to rinse off. I have tried to sleep with the mask and it worked really well. The skin feels significantly moisturized afterwards. I can feel a slight irritation of the skin in some places but it passes quickly.
3 - AMARANTH FACE OIL
A luxurious anti-aging face oil containing Amaranth oil which naturally has a very high content of squalene. The face oil also contains jojoba, wild rose oil, rose water, hemp, ginger, cardamom and saffron.
It is important to shake the bottle to mix the ingredients thoroughly. The bottle comes with a pipette. Take 5-6 drops in the palm of your hand and then apply to your face with a gentle massaging action. This oil can substitute regular cream or can be used as a serum under your face cream. The oil has a mixed floral and spice / herbal scent. It has a heavy consistency, I think, but my skin absorbes gratefully in these luxurious drops.
