The frequency of using skincare products depends on the type of product and your skin's specific needs. Here’s a general guideline:
Cleanser: Use twice daily, morning and night, to remove impurities, oil, and makeup that accumulate throughout the day and night.
Toner: Use after cleansing, ideally twice a day. Toners help to balance the skin’s pH and prepare it for the next steps in your routine.
Serum: Apply once or twice daily, depending on the formula and your skin goals. Serums are potent treatments targeting specific concerns like hydration, brightening, or anti-aging.
Moisturizer: Use twice a day, in the morning and at night, to keep skin hydrated and protect its barrier.
Sunscreen: Apply every morning, even on cloudy days or indoors, and reapply every two hours if you're outdoors.
Exfoliator: Use 1-3 times a week, depending on your skin type and the strength of the exfoliant. Over-exfoliating can damage the skin barrier, so it’s essential to find a balance.
Face Masks: Use once a week or as needed. Masks can target hydration, detoxification, or calming the skin, depending on your needs.
However, always check product labels, pay attention to your skin’s needs, and adjust frequency based on how your skin is feeling.
