The Skincare Layering Guide

Understanding the chemistry of skin active ingredients ensures maximum results while protecting your delicate skin barrier.

The 3-Step Layering Protocol

01

Prep (Cleanse & Tone)

Prepare skin surface to maximize absorption of active treatments. Use water-based cleansers or mild exfoliating toners.

02

Treat (Targeted Serums)

Apply targeted treatments with active ingredients (Hyaluronic Acid, Niacinamide, Retinal, Peptides) in order of thinnest to thickest texture.

03

Seal (Moisturize & Protect)

Lock in active ingredients and reinforce your skin's natural moisture barrier with lipid-rich creams and sun protection.
