In which order should you use skincare products?

July 30 2024 – Katarzyna Zielinska

I would like to help you use your favourite cosmetics in the best way possible. Layering them correctly and knowing the difference between products ensures that your skin receives all the benefits.

Makeup remover - if you wear makeup or sunscreen I would recommend it as a first step of double cleansing. It could be done with micellar water, cleansing balm, cleansing oil or dual-phase makeup remover.

It will help to dissolve your makeup, skincare products and dirt after long day.

Cleanser - make sure that you wash every part of your face, take your time and rub your skin very gently. Rinse your face with water to make sure that you remove all the product. If you feel like some excess of makeup or dirt is left, you could wash your face a second time. You should wash your face once or twice a day, depends on skin needs. It could be done with gel, foam or cleansing cream.

Cleaning your skin efficiently should minimize pore clodges, pimples and let your other products work better.

Exfoliator/peeling - use it 1-2 times a week. You could use physical exfoliator with sugar, seeds, etc., chemical exfoliator with enzymes or acids or products which combine both.

Make sure that you rub your skin very gentle to avoid irritation. Removing dead skin cells helps you bring brightnes, glow and healthy look to your skin. It also makes the next steps more effective.

Face mask - if you have a wash off face mask, that's the perfect time for it. You don't need to use it every day. If you have an overnight face mask, use it instead of face cream.

Toner - Using a toner will help your skin achieve its natural pH level after every face wash. It's not for cleansing; instead, a toner helps restore balance and allows your skin to absorb more active ingredients from skincare products. Apply it directly to your face or use cotton pads. You can use liquid, gel, cream toners, or hydrosols (such as rose water, lavender water, etc.).

It brings skin to balance and lets the next products work more effectively.

Eye serum and face serum - serums are products with a high concentation of active ingredience. Usually they have more specific results than cream, you could use it every day or when needed. It could be named as a serum, booster or essence.

It serves to the skins extra needs - you can use different serums depending on your skin condition and expected results. Moisturizing, cleansing pores, anti-ageing, etc. Or focus on specific ingredients like vit. C, niacynamide, peptides etc.

Eye cream and face cream - the basics of skin care that give you a daily portion of active ingredients, hydration and protection. Recommended to use daily, you could have night and day cream or one product for both purposes.

Good creams suitable for your needs would be a great everyday contibution to your skin health and good apperance.

Sunscreen - apply a solid layer of sunscreen at the very end of your skincare routine to ensure a good level of UV protection.
