The Correct Order To Use Beauty Products

Are you sure you are using the beauty products in the right order? Check here to know the correct order to be followed while using beauty products.

By Rima Chowdhury

Applying your favourite beauty products can help to pamper your skin, but the order in which you apply beauty products is extremely important as well. Thanks to the Korean ritual, where layering of beauty products is taken seriously and hence we decided to take some inspiration from them.

Following a proper order to use beauty products is important, in order to get the maximum benefit and result. Not only order of the product but even the timing of application really matters in a proper skin care routine.

Check out the best order that we must follow while using these various beauty products.

Cleanser

Cleanser

You should always start by using a cleanser. Using a cleanser can help to remove all the dirt and dust from the skin, thus giving you clear and glowing skin.

Most of the experts also recommend for double cleansing, which involves cleansing your skin with a cleansing oil and then washing your face and cleansing again with cleansing milk. Cleansing your face with a cleanser can help you wash off the excess sebum, dirt, and makeup if accumulated on the face.

 Toner

Toner

Most of the people tend to skip the use of a toner, but using a toner is an important part of our beauty regime. Using toners on the skin can help to soothe the skin and avoid irritation.

Most of the toners contain essential vitamins and antioxidants that help to clear clogged pores. Toner contains a high amount of acid that helps to clear the debris from the skin and also keeps your skin fresh.

A Mild Moisturising Cream

Using a cream after the toner is the correct order. Most of them tend to skip the toner and directly apply the cream to get maximum benefits.

You should use a mild moisturising cream on your skin, as it helps to give you a soft and glowing skin while being mild on the skin. Using a mild cream or a skin-lightening cream can help to treat scars on the face and also lighten the acne spots. Massage your face with a mild cream, so that it keeps the skin hydrated and glowing.

Face Serum

Face Serum

Next most important step is to apply a face serum. Generally, serum is applied after using a mild moisturising cream. Serum contains a high amount of concentrated ingredients that help dissolve in the skin easily.

Due to the high concentration of ingredients in serum, it helps to close the pores and give you a hydrated skin. The serum also works as a protective sheet on the skin, which prevents the clogging of pores.

 Use An Eye Cream

Use An Eye Cream

Using an eye cream plays a vital role at least when applied at night before going to bed. Application of an eye cream helps to strengthen the eyelids as well as the skin below the eyes.

If you have dark circles or puffy eyes, using an eye cream can help to treat the problem early. Regular use of eye cream can help to improve elasticity on the skin and also restore the lost collagen as well. It also helps to protect your under-eye skin from UV damage. In order to take care of your eyes during summer days, you should always wear sunglasses and cover the face properly.

Night Creams

Night Creams

Night creams are generally heavy and thick in consistency for the fact that they help boost the production of collagen in the body, thus giving you an improved skin condition. Using night cream before going to bed is extremely important, as it helps in restoring and regenerating the skin cells.

Also, due to active ingredients present in the night cream, it can help to keep your skin hydrated, moist and supple through the night. When you are choosing a night cream, always pay attention to the ingredients used in it. Opt for creams with shea butter, olive oil, honey, Vitamin C, hyaluronic acid or coconut oil. These natural ingredients help to keep your skin protected for a long period of time.

Face Oil

Face Oil

If you are not using a moisturiser or night cream before going to bed, make sure you include a face oil. Face oil helps to give you a glowing and healthy skin and also helps to pull out the dirt and debris from the face.

Massaging with a face oil can help to improve the elasticity of the skin and also prevent the signs of ageing. Regular application of face oil helps to prevent the signs of ageing on skin effectively.
