HOW TO LAYER
YOUR SKINCARE

Recommended from our Farmacist®

Recommended from our Farmacist®

By layering your skincare in the right order you can boost product absorption, product effectiveness, and avoid pilling! A general rule? Start with the thinnest and finish with the thickest consistency.

1. cleansing balm
or face wash

Double-cleanse if you’d like! Start with a cleansing balm to remove makeup, then a face wash.

Why you need it

Daily facial washing helps remove impurities, dirt and makeup that can irritate skin.

2. exfoliator

Remember to exfoliate using circular motions. Don’t skip over the fine lines around eyes and mouth.

Why you need it

Exfoliating removes flaky skin, helping treatments and products penetrate deeper.

3. mask

Mask all over or target areas like the t-zone. Some of our cooling masks also depuff undereyes.

Why you need it

Masks often contain a high concentration of active ingredients with diverse benefits based on the mask type.

4. treatment

Apply peel pads, acne solutions and prescriptions using circular motions starting at the forehead down to the décolleté.

Why you need it

Treat your acne while protecting your skin from future damage and scarring.

5. tonic

Mist over face and neck after cleansing - and throughout your day. Try spritzing over makeup for a quick refresh.

Why you need it

Our facial tonics deliver refreshing hydration and enhance layers that 
come after.

6. booster

Boosters are thin formulas that should be applied evenly to face, undereye area and as far down as the décolleté.

Why you need it

Boosters target specific skin concerns like enlarged pores, dehydration and dullness (with so many added benefits)

7. serum

Serums are slightly thicker. Place small dots around your face, neck, and eye area. Smooth in until thoroughly absorbed

Why you need it

Serums treat the deepest layers of the skin to reveal a more youthful healthy looking complexion.

8. moisturizer

Apply over a serum to lock in its benefits. Try a different moisturizer at night when your skin is working overtime.

Why you need it

Helps maintain your skin’s moisture barrier and protect against environmental damage. Some even repair while you sleep..

9. eye cream

Place small dots around the eye, above the browbone and between eyebrows. Smooth in until thoroughly absorbed.

Why you need it

The skin around the eyes is fragile, more prone to dryness and quicker to show age and fatigue.

10. spf

Apply our mineral sunscreen before outdoor activities. You may also blend with your daily moisturizer.

Why you need it

Used daily sunscreen can help prevent sunburn, skin cancer, and premature aging.
