CORRECT ORDER TO APPLY SKINCARE
MORNING ROUTINE:
- Cleanse- Sake Balm Cleanser or Exfoliating Face Wash (one cleanse is enough for the morning)
- Triple Acid Brightening Toner 3-4X a week (listen to your skin, start with 1-2 days a week and move up as tolerated) - Let completely dry down into skin before moving on to next step. AM or PM BUT PLEASE SEE NOTE BELOW REGARDING PM
- Hydra-Plump Longevity Essence
- Advanced Lightening Brightening Serum AM, PM or BOTH
- CE Ferulic Serum or Triple C with Tranexamic Acid Serum
- Ceramide with Hyaluronic Acid Serum
- Rejuvenating Eye Cream
- Moisturizer (Sake Extract Face moisturizer or Hydrating Water Gel
- SPF
NIGHT-TIME ROUTINE:
- Double Cleanse First with the Sake Balm Cleanser and Second with the Exfoliating Cleanser (or whatever cleanser you use)
- Triple Acid Brightening Toner 3-4X a week (listen to your skin; start with 1-2 days a week and move up as tolerated) - Let the toner completely dry before moving on to the next step. **THIS IS A NIGHTTIME STEP ONLY IF YOU ARE WILLING TO WAIT 25 MINUTES + BEFORE USING THE COPPER SERUM OR IF YOU ARE NOT USING THE COPPER SERUM AT ALL. (reason- copper likes a neutral pH, and the toner is acidic- waiting 25 min, plus gives your skin a chance to restore its natural (neutral) pH.
- Hydra-Plump Longevity Essence
- Advanced Brightening Lightening Serum
- Ceramide with Hyaluronic Acid Serum
- Copper Serum
- EGF Serum
- Triple C with Tranexamic Acid Serum
- Rejuvenating Eye Cream
- Advanced Retinoid Renewal Cream - this can be your moisturizer. If you need more hydration, add a moisturizer on top of it - this cream should be enough in our experience.
- Moisturizer - Sake Extract Face moisturizer or Hydrating Water Gel
Follow this based on the products you have; skip any step(s) you don't use and continue to the next step.
Pumpkin Enzyme Mask: Apply in the morning or at night. During the day, apply the mask, leave it on for as long as your skin tolerates, rinse, and continue with your morning skincare routine.
At night, after cleansing, leave it on as long as your skin tolerates, up to 15 minutes. You can wipe off with a clean towel, leaving the residual behind. Apply moisturizer. If your skin is more sensitive, rinse it off, and then continue with your nighttime regimen. * Same rule as the toner regarding the copper serum- if you rinse the mask off and choose to continue with your nighttime regimen, wait 25 min + before applying your copper serum, or just discontinue the copper serum the night you use the mask. Read the directions on the jar!
If you use prescription Tretinoin, apply it at night after your serums and moisturizer. If your skin is dry and peeling, you can apply the moisturizer, Tretinoin, and more moisturizer. (Discontinue the advanced retinoid renewal cream on nights you are using Tretinoin).
