Skin Routines: What’s the Best Order for Your Products?
Serums, moisturizers, retinol, antioxidants, sunscreen, eye cream… Where do you start, and what goes on first?
The key to an effective skin care routine is understanding that one size does not fit all. Your routine should be tailored to your preferences and lifestyle. If a multi-step regimen isn’t for you, don’t worry! There’s no need to invest in numerous products that will end up collecting dust. The most important factor is finding a routine that works for you and staying consistent. Consistency is as essential as the products you choose
The Order of Application: “Thin to Thick” Rule
To simplify things, always apply products from the thinnest to the thickest consistency. This ensures that each product absorbs properly and maximizes its benefits.
Step-by-Step Guide to Your Skin Care Routine:
- Cleanser: Start with a high-quality cleanser to remove makeup, oil, and impurities that build up throughout the day.
- Serums: Apply lightweight serums next, as they penetrate the skin quickly. Serums can include peptides, hyaluronic acid, or Vitamin C for targeted skin benefits. One of our favorites is SkinBeautica’s Peptide 9, known for softening wrinkles. Hyaluronic acid is excellent for hydration, especially in dry climates, while Vitamin C serves as a powerful antioxidant that helps repair UV damage.
- Eye Cream: Apply eye cream to target the delicate skin around the eyes. These creams are specifically formulated to address issues like dark circles and fine lines.
- Retinol vs. Moisturizer: Retinol absorbs rapidly and is most effective when applied before moisturizer. However, if you have sensitive skin, applying a moisturizer first can help buffer the retinol and reduce irritation.
