The Ultimate Guide to Layering Skincare Products: What Goes On First?

You may have heard the term layering as it relates to your skincare routine.  Every skincare product that you use on your face is important in its own right, so what is layering skincare?

The name may be a bit deceiving.  While there is some level of layering happening, what layering skincare the proper way is referring to is making sure you are applying your skincare in the correct order in order to maximize the effectiveness and ensure that they are penetrating your skin properly.  This technique is used by many to make sure they are getting the most out of their skincare.

It is a technique that we encourage when using the entire Earthen Skincare System.  If you have a skincare routine you have already taken a step in the right direction, but now it is important that you are layering your skincare products properly so that they are as effective as they possibly can be.

So, take the Earthen Skincare System and start the process of layering it with these steps so you can make sure you get the most out of every use of these products and have your skin looking youthful in no time.

Layer #1: Our Vegan Daily Facial Cleanser.  The first and most important step of any layering process is to make sure you are wiping away the makeup from the day and cleaning away any dirt or grime that has built up on your face.  Starting with this gentle cleanser that is formulated to not dry out your skin will get you started on the right foot.

Layer #2: Repair & Lift:  This anti-wrinkle and moisturizing serum is a good next step in the process for layering your skincare.  Utilizing this uniquely developed serum will help you sculpt the appearance of unwanted wrinkles.

Layer #3: Eye Cream: Before applying this layer you will want to make sure you identify what type of issues you are experiencing around your eyes.  Are you experiencing dark circles or are you experiencing puffiness and wrinkles around your eyes.  Determining this will allow you to pick the correct eye cream for this layer of your skincare routine.

Layer #4: Moisturizer: Once again before adding this to your layered skincare approach you will want to figure out what type of skin you have.  Is your skin oily or normal or dry?  You will want to identify that first and then select the appropriate moisturizer for your skin type.

Taking the approach of layering your skincare will allow you to get the most out of your skincare routine and skincare products.  If you just apply them in any old order you may find yourself minimizing the profound effects these products can have on your overall skin health.  Start layering your skincare products and before you know it your skin will look fresh and youthful.
