What's The Order?
Filed Under Beauty Tips, Skincare
When it comes to skincare, there are so many different products with different names and functions, it can be confusing when to use each one. Here’s a summary of the order of the products to slap onto your face:
DAY
- Cleanser- wash off all the dirt and grime off your face, leaving it clean and let your skin breathe
- Exfoliant- may omit cleanser if using an exfoliant. However, this is not for everyday use as it becomes overly harsh on the skin,
- Toner- the jury is out on the use of a toner.
- Prescription medications- put them on a clean face for the deepest action.
- Anti-oxidant serum
- Eye cream- look for one containing anti-oxidants, SPF and a moisturizing humectant like glycerine or propylene glycol in your day cream.
- Redness reliever- usually containing caffine and/or niacinamide.
- Moisturizer- as it usually contains more oil, applying it last will actually avoid the problem of the above more water based products from sliding off, and it also helps lock in the above products.
- Suncreen
- Makeup Primer
NIGHT
- Makeup remover if you have any makeup on
- Prescription skin care/ Retinoids
- Hydroquinone spot treatments
- Peptide serum
- Eye cream
- Night cream
