Best Skincare Routine: Cleansing and Care

You can use the best creams on the market, but if your skin isn't cleansed properly, they won't get a chance to work. Worse — if you cleanse in the wrong way or wrong order, you can push impurities deeper into the skin, and clogged pores and dull skin soon follow.

Your morning routine

In the morning, keep it simple: toner or essence, eye cream, serum, and a final cream. Why only a toner? Your skin didn't get too grimy overnight, so a gentle toner is all it needs.

Your evening routine

In the evening, go for the full cleanse: cleanser, toner or essence, serum, eye cream, and a final cream.

What can you do extra?

• Use a mask 1–2 times a week.

• Use a peeling once a week.

One more tip: skip the tap water

If you really want to take good care of your skin — no plain tap water. It tends to disrupt the skin's protective film and can noticeably affect its condition. Use a toner instead, and save water for when you're rinsing off a cleansing foam or washing gel.

Mini FAQ

Why does cleansing matter so much?
Without proper cleansing, creams can't work — and impurities can get pushed deeper into the skin, leading to clogged pores and dull skin.

Do I need a cleanser in the morning?
No — a toner or essence is enough, since your skin doesn't get very dirty overnight. Save the full cleanse for the evening.
