Makeup Remover

As needed, typically in the PM or post-activity (sweating, heavy SPF, makeup)

What They Are
Gentle, water- or oil-based products used to lift makeup, sunscreen, and surface buildup before cleansing—without stripping the skin.

Masks

Masks 1–2x/week
(Hydrating masks: 2–3x/week if needed)
(Exfoliating/clarifying: weekly or less)

What They Are (1–2x/week, after exfoliation or instead of it)
Concentrated treatments applied to the skin for a short period to boost hydration, clarify, exfoliate, or soothe—depending on the formula.

Treatments

As needed, PM preferred
(Frequency depends on concern + product strength)

What They Are
Targeted formulas made to address specific skin concerns like breakouts, dark spots, irritation, or uneven texture—applied only where needed.

Sunscreen (SPF)

Daily, AM (and reapply every 2 hours if exposed)

What They Are
A daily essential that protects your skin from UV damage and supports barrier health especially when using active treatments.

Cleansers

Daily, AM + PM

What They Are
Products used to remove dirt, oil, makeup, sunscreen, and buildup from the skin without disrupting its natural barrier.

Toners

Daily, AM + PM
(Exfoliating toners: 2–4x/week depending on skin)

What They Are
A lightweight liquid step used after cleansing to rehydrate the skin, support barrier health, and enhance absorption of what comes next.

Eye Creams

Daily, AM + PM
(Retinol-based: PM only, 2–3x/week)

What They Are
Targeted creams, gels, or serums formulated specifically for the delicate skin around the eyes.

Extras That Matter

As needed
(Mists: throughout the day or post-treatment
Balms: PM or when barrier is compromised
Oils: final step in PM or layered when skin feels dry)

What They Are
Products used to supplement your core routine—often for hydration, protection, or comfort.

Exfoliants

1–3x/week, PM only
(Enzymes may allow more frequent use than acids)

What They Are (2–3x/week)
Products that remove dead skin cells to smooth texture, clear pores, and support a more even, refined appearance.

Serums

Daily, AM, PM, or both: based on formula

What They Are
Concentrated formulas made to deliver targeted ingredients deeper into the skin. They’re typically lightweight in texture and designed to absorb quickly without sitting on the surface.

Moisturizers

Daily, AM + PM
(May layer or switch texture based on time of day/season)

What They Are
Creams, gels, or lotions designed to help skin retain water and strengthen the barrier. They seal in hydration, prevent water loss, and protect against external stressors.

Facial Tools

As needed, most tools 2–5x/week

What They Are
At home facial tools that help enhance product absorption, calm inflammation, and improve skin function.
