The Art of Skincare Layering

The first step in any skincare routine is to start with a clean canvas. Begin by cleansing your face with a gentle cleanser that suits your skin type.

This helps remove dirt, oil, and impurities, preparing your skin for the subsequent steps.

Incorporate a cleanser into your night routine, daily for best results.

If you're incorporating exfoliation into your routine, choose a product that suits your skin's needs, whether it's a physical exfoliant like our Jojoba Bean Natural Exfoliant or a chemical exfoliant (a type of exfoliant that works deeper in the skin) like our Jojoba & Enzyme Radiance Mask.

Exfoliation helps slough away dead skin cells, revealing a smoother and brighter complexion.

Incorporate an exfoliant into your routine 1-3 times a week for best results.

Face masks provide an extra boost of targeted treatment for your skin. Whether you're looking to hydrate, purify, or rejuvenate, face masks can address various skin concerns.

Choose a mask that suits your needs, such as a hydrating sheet mask or a clay mask to draw out impurities.

Apply the mask evenly across your face, avoiding the eye and lip areas. Allow it to work its magic for the recommended time before gently rinsing or removing the mask.

Incorporate face masks into your routine once or twice for best results.

After cleansing, it's time to restore your skin's pH balance. Toning is an essential step that not only rebalances your skin but also preps it for better absorption of subsequent products.

Look for a toner that suits your skin type and concerns, whether it's hydrating, clarifying, or soothing. Try our Jojoba Water Toning Mist for a light, hydrating toner that won’t strip or dry out your skin.

Incorporate a toner into your routine morning and night for best results.

Eye serums are targeted formulations designed to address specific concerns such as fine lines, puffiness, and dark circles.

Choose an eye serum rich in antioxidants, peptides, or hyaluronic acid, depending on your needs. Gently dab a small amount around the orbital bone, using your ring finger to avoid excessive pressure.

Incorporate eye serums into your routine morning and night, daily for best results.

Once your skin is toned, it's time to address specific concerns with targeted treatments.

Serums and essences packed with active ingredients like hyaluronic acid, vitamin C, or retinol can address issues such as hydration, brightening, or anti-ageing. Apply these products with gentle patting motions to encourage absorption.

Incorporate serums into your routine morning and night, daily for best results.

Facial oil is a luxurious and nourishing step in skincare layering. Rich in essential fatty acids and antioxidants, facial oils provide deep hydration and help seal in moisture.

Apply a few drops onto your palms, warm it between your hands, and gently press it onto your face, neck, and décolletage. Allow the oil to absorb fully before proceeding.

Incorporate a facial oil into your routine morning and night, daily for best results.

Moisture is the key to maintaining a healthy complexion. After treating your skin, it's important to lock in hydration with a moisturiser suitable for your skin type.

Look for a product that provides the right balance of moisture without feeling heavy or greasy. If you have specific concerns like dryness or oily skin, choose a moisturiser formulated to address those needs.

Incorporate a moisturiser into your routine morning and night, daily for best results.

No skincare routine is complete without sun protection. Apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of 15 for incidental sun exposure (or higher for direct and long term sun exposure) as the final layer in your morning routine.

Sunscreen shields your skin from harmful UV rays, preventing premature ageing, sunburns, and potential skin damage.

Opt for a lightweight formula that can be easily incorporated into your skincare layering routine.

Incorporate SPF into your morning routine, daily, in any weather for best results.
