How to Layer Skincare Correctly — The Right Order for Glowing Results

Even the best products won’t work properly if you don’t apply them in the right order.
Skincare layering matters — it affects absorption, results, and how comfortable your skin feels.
Here’s the exact routine order to help your skin glow ✨👇


✅ Step-by-Step Skincare Order

1️⃣ Cleanser
Start fresh by removing makeup, oil, and dirt.
Clean canvas = better product absorption ✅

2️⃣ Toner or Essence
Hydrates and preps the skin so active ingredients work better.

3️⃣ Serums (Active Ingredients)
Lightest → heaviest formula
Target your skin concerns here:

  • Vitamin C: Brightening

  • Hyaluronic Acid: Hydration

  • Niacinamide: Pore + Oil control

4️⃣ Eye Cream
Tap gently under eyes — never rub! 👀

5️⃣ Moisturizer
Locks in all the hydration and nourishment you just applied.

6️⃣ Sunscreen (AM only ☀️)
SPF is always the final layer in daytime skincare.
Protects against wrinkles, sun damage, and dark spots!


🌙 Night Routine Adjustment

Replace sunscreen with:
Retinol or Overnight Mask
(But never mix strong actives without guidance!)


⭐ Pro Tips

  • Apply from thinnest to thickest texture

  • Let each layer absorb before the next

  • Patch test strong actives first

The right order = better glow, better protection, better results 💛
