We all know oil and water do not mix. So, you should always apply your water-based products before your oil-based products because the oils may prevent your water-based products from penetrating your skin. A general rule-of-thumb is to let each product absorb before applying the next one.
Different products have different consistency. Start with your thinner products such as toners and water-based serums and end with oil-based serums and moisturizers.
Always apply acidic products first. For example, Vitamin C and Hyaluronic Acid...this is a water-based product with a low pH and should be applied right after your toner.
Types of Skin Care products:
Cleansers - Day and Night
Choosing the right cleanser is the foundation for for your skincare routine. Cleansers help eliminate excess dirt and oils that build up during the day from environmental impurities and while you sleep as a natural function of your skin. Wearing makeup during the day should always be removed.
