Which comes first, serum or moisturizer?

Unless you’re a die-hard skin care junkie, it can be difficult to remember product order in your skin care regimen. To help with this it’s a good idea to keep products lined up in order of use near the bathroom sink. In addition, print out your weekly skin care regimen and keep it in the bathroom, so you don’t forget about or overuse certain products.

For a very basic routine:

1. Cleanser
2. Toner
3. Eye Cream
4. Moisturizer

For an at-home facial featuring all of the major players, this is the order to follow:

1. Cleanser
2. Exfoliant
3. Mask
4. Toner
5. Serum (Note: Herbal Hydrating Serum should go on after moisturizer)
6. Eye Cream
7. Moisturizer

 

Now, you’ll never have to worry about when to use what!

How do you keep your skin care regimen organized?
