How to Layer Your Skincare

skin care columbus

Skincare products have been around for decades, but skincare has evolved drastically over the years and gained massive popularity in recent years leading many of us to step up our skincare game.

We can all agree that a proper skincare routine is crucial to rejuvenate our skin daily, reduce the impacts of aging (hello sunspots, crows feet, and smile lines), and give us a youthful glow. However, most of us have no clue what the heck we are supposed to do with the extensive amount of skincare products that we have accumulated in our medicine cabinets.

Can you relate? If so, no worries! Boss Gal is here to help.

As if skincare is not confusing enough, there are a couple other elements that you want to keep in mind when perfecting your skincare regime:

  1. Skincare is unique to your skin type and personal skin needs, so there is not a “one-size-fits-all” skincare routine. You should personalize your skincare regime based on the products that give you the best results. Have this conversation with your esthetician at your next appointment at Boss Gal. That’s what we are here for!
  2. Your morning and evening skincare routine will look different since certain products are not necessary in the morning and vice versa in the evening. For example, there is no need to put on SPF at night before bed, and retinol is best to apply in the evening when your skin will not be exposed to the sun.

Now that we have a firm basis of general skincare tips, let’s dive into the good stuff–when, and in what order, to apply your skincare products.

  1. Cleanser
  2. Toner
  3. Serums
