Absorption is Key: Imagine your skin as a layered cake. Thicker, creamier products form a barrier on the surface. Applying thinner, water-based products first allows them to penetrate deeper layers where they can work their magic.

Think Consistency: Serums and essences have a lighter consistency, allowing them to deliver concentrated ingredients deep into the skin. Heavier moisturizers and creams lock in hydration and benefits from the previous layers.

Cleanse: Wash away dirt, oil, and makeup to create a clean canvas.

Treat: Apply lightweight serums or treatments like acne spot treatment to target specific concerns.

Tone (Optional): Use a toner for additional cleansing or to balance your skin's pH.
