AM/PM Skincare Routine Steps

Skincare Notes

  • WAIT 15 minutes after applying actives (25% Vitamin C serums)
  • In the daytime, pat aloe vera gel on face in between toner and essence
  • At night, use a sheet mask in between essence and serum
  • Store rose water, aloe vera gel, vegetable glycerine, sheet masks, toners, hydrosols, and serums ( especially vitamin c serums!! ) in the mini fridge
  • Throw away vitamin C serums that are oxidized, it'll look yellow/orange-amber and might have a tacky smell. It should look transparent and have zero smell
  • Essences always have a watery liquid consistency whereas serums will always be more thicker and and a bit more viscous
  • Thinner/watery/easily-absorbed products go first and heavier/thicker/ products are last
  • Never mix Copper Peptides with Vitamin C as they will cancel each other out. Use copper peptides serums at night and vitamin C in the morning.

  • Use gua sha for 10 minutes after putting on actives (use while waiting the 15 minutes) AND for 5 minutes after applying facial oil
