Cleanse, tone and moisturise.
We’ve all been told it’s the fundamentals of skincare. The three basic things we need to do every single night. So, where do serums, spot creams and everything else we use come into our routine? And, how do you create a skincare routine that you can repeat night after night?
The basics
OK, let’s start with the order that you should be using products.
If in doubt, you should be using your lightest and thinnest products first and thickest at the end. This means that all of your products have the best chance of being in direct contact with your skin.
And, don’t think you need a 12-step-skincare routine to see a difference. As long as you’re doing the basics (cleansing, toning, treating and moisturising), then your skin will be happy and healthy.
It’s more important to be strategic, picking products that will make the biggest difference to your skin and investing in multi-taskers that save you time. So, what should you be using for your skin type?
