The correct order to do a simple yet effective skincare routine is:
-
Cleanser: Use a gentle cleanser to remove dirt, oil, and makeup from your skin.
-
Toner: Apply toner to your skin to help balance your skin's pH and prepare your skin for the next steps in your skincare routine.
-
Serum: Apply a serum that is targeted to your specific skin concerns. Serums are lightweight and contain a high concentration of active ingredients that can penetrate deeply into the skin.
-
Eye Cream: Apply a small amount of eye cream to the delicate skin around your eyes to help hydrate and protect the area.
-
Moisturizer: Apply a moisturizer to your skin to help lock in moisture and keep your skin hydrated.
-
Sunscreen: Apply sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30 to protect your skin from UV damage.
It's important to note that not all steps are necessary for everyone & the order may vary depending on your specific skincare needs. For example, some people may choose to skip the toner step, while others may prefer to use a facial oil before applying moisturizer. Additionally, if you use any prescription-strength skincare products, it's important to follow your doctor's or dermatologist's instructions on how to incorporate them into your skincare routine.
