A breakdown of the correct order to apply your skincare
A dedicated skincare routine with all the holy-grail products is something most of us swear by. However, a subject that a lot of us are seemingly confused by is the correct order of applying these products. Active ingredients, formulation, texture, and type of product can impact where the product needs to be included in your routine. An incorrect order of skincare steps will not give you the desired results and greatly impacts the efficacy of skincare products. Moreover, an incorrect skincare step such as applying a thick creamy layer before a water-based one, may form a barrier that prevents the second product from penetrating, rendering it useless and inactive. Another effect of the wrong order of application of skincare steps is that they may lead to the rise of new skin concerns, for example, layering a serum or face oil on top of a sunscreen will disturb with its protective barrier and dilute it, leaving the skin unprotected and exposed to UV damage.
Numerous articles and videos on skincare perhaps have you feeling a bit confused. We have broken down the correct order to apply your skincare. But remember, every skin type is different so it is always best to consult your dermatologist and understand your skin’s concerns and needs.
