This is how often to use your skincare products

Not sure how to build the perfect skincare routine? Here’s a quick guide to help you get the most out of your products without overdoing it:

Exfoliators: 1-2x weekly

  • Overuse can damage your skin barrier, so stick to once a week or twice if you have very oily skin

Retinol: Nightly (eventually!)

  • Start slow to build tolerance and avoid irritation

Face Masks: 1-2x weekly

  • For medicated masks with active ingredients, once a week is usually enough

Benzoyl Peroxide: 3-5x weekly

  • Use as a topical treatment or daily in a face wash, depending on your skin's needs

Hydrating Toners: Twice daily

  • Apply right after washing your face to lock in moisture

Vitamin C Serum: Every morning

  • Brightens and protects your skin throughout the day

SPF 30+: Every. Single. Day.

  • Rain or shine, don’t skip it!
