The Ultimate Guide to Layering Your Skincare Products: Step by Step

When it comes to getting the most out of your skincare products, how you layer them makes all the difference. If you’ve ever wondered how to effectively build a routine that maximizes results, this blog is for you!


Layering your skincare products correctly ensures that each product penetrates your skin properly, providing the full benefit of every ingredient.


Here’s a guide to layering your skincare products the right way:

1. Start with an Oil Cleanser

The first step is an oil-based cleanser to remove makeup, sunscreen, and impurities. Oil cleansers are effective at breaking down stubborn products like waterproof mascara while being gentle on the skin. Simply massage the oil cleanser onto dry skin, paying extra attention to your pores. This prepares your skin for the rest of your routine.


2. Follow with a Face Wash Next

Use a natural face wash to cleanse away any remaining dirt and oil from your skin. This ensures that your pores are clean and prepped to absorb the next steps. Opt for a gentle cleanser that doesn’t strip away natural oils but effectively cleans the skin.


3. Apply a Toner

Toning is an often-overlooked but essential step. Toners help balance your skin’s pH, and they prepare the skin to absorb the next layers. Choose a hydrating toner to help replenish moisture. Gently sweep it across your face with a cotton pad or pat it in with your fingers.


4. Use Wonder Serum

Now, it’s time for your hero product: Wonder Serum. This lightweight serum is packed with vitamins A and C, fatty acids, and antioxidants, perfect for rejuvenating your skin. It minimises the appearance of fine lines, scars, acne, and more. Apply a small amount by patting it gently into your skin. This serum penetrates deeply, helping your skin stay hydrated and radiant.

5. Lock it In with Moisturiser

Once your serum has been absorbed, it’s essential to lock in the moisture with a good moisturiser. This helps seal the Wonder Serum’s benefits into your skin and creates a protective barrier to keep your skin hydrated throughout the day or night.


In the morning, opt for a moisturizer that includes SPF to save time and money. Sunscreen is a crucial step in protecting your skin from harmful UV rays, which cause premature aging and other skin issues.


Pro Tip: You don’t need to buy separate products for every step if you’re on a budget. Combining steps like using a moisturiser with SPF for daytime and skipping toner when you need to can make your routine more manageable and affordable without sacrificing results.


Layering Your Skincare Like a Pro

By layering your skincare products in the correct order, you’re giving your skin the best opportunity to absorb each product fully and benefit from its properties.


Cleansing first ensures a clean canvas, while toning and applying serums deliver nutrients directly to your skin. Finally, sealing everything in with moisturiser keeps your skin hydrated and glowing all day long.


Make Wonder Serum a part of your skincare routine to take advantage of its powerful, natural ingredients that treat various skin concerns, leaving your skin soft, smooth, and radiant.
