From cleansers to serums, toners to moisturizers, it’s easy to get confused about skincare product orders. Using all the products in the correct order is necessary for maximizing their effectiveness.

Cleansing

Always begin with a clean canvas. Choose a gentle cleanser that matches your skin type to effectively remove dirt, oil, and makeup. Cleansing helps prepare your skin to absorb the active ingredients in the products that follow.

Toning

After cleansing, apply a toner. Toners help balance your skin’s pH and remove any lingering impurities. They also provide a base layer of hydration and prepare your skin for the next steps.

Serums

Serums are concentrated treatments that can improve specific skin woes such as wrinkles, dark spots, or dullness. Apply your serum after toning as it allows it to fully absorb into your skin.

Eye Cream

The skin around your eyes is sensitive and frequently needs extra care. Apply an eye cream to tackle puffiness, dark circles, or fine lines. Use your ring finger to gently pat it in, minimizing any pulling on the delicate skin.

Moisturizer

Next, seal in all the previous steps with a moisturizer. This step helps to seal in hydration and create a protective barrier on your skin. Choose a moisturizer that suits your skin type, whether it’s oily, dry, or combination.

Sunscreen

The last step in your morning routine should always be sunscreen. Sunscreen protects your skin from harmful UV rays. It can prevent premature aging and reduce the risk of skin cancer. Select a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30.
