SkinCeuticals Top Product Questions: When to Use and How to Apply
SkinCeuticals users often ask two questions: how do I use my SkinCeuticals product, and how do I go about applying it? SkinCeuticals recommends starting each day with an antioxidant product for best results. These products are marked with “prevent” on the bottle, as they are formulated with powerful antioxidants to help keep signs of aging at bay. Once you’ve finished with your antioxidant product and it has fully absorbed into your skin, you can move onto corrective products. These are marked with “correct” on the bottle for their ability to correct visible skin concerns such as aging, discoloration and blemishes. Each morning should start with your antioxidant, followed by any remaining products. For best results, SkinCeuticals recommends applying serum first, followed by gels, lotions, creams and sunscreen. Use 4-5 drops of serum, 2-3 pumps of gels and a pea to dime-sized amount of lotions and creams. Each evening can begin with a PM antioxidant or a SkinCeuticals retinol. Then, you’d apply your products in the same order as you did in your morning routine: 4-5 drops of serum, 2-3 pumps of gel and a pea to dime-sized amount of lotion or cream. Worried about waiting between product applications? Don’t worry! Simply wait a few seconds until your product feels mostly absorbed.
Video Summary
There are two common questions when it comes to SkinCeuticals products: how do I use my product, and how do I apply it?
For best results, SkinCeuticals recommends starting each day with an antioxidant product. These are marked with “prevent” on the bottle. Once your antioxidant has fully absorbed, you can move onto corrective products (marked “correct” on the bottle) like SkinCeuticals Hyaluronic Acid Intensifier Hydrating Serum.
In the morning: Start with your antioxidant product, followed by any remaining products in this order: serums, gels, lotions, creams and sunscreen. For serums, apply 4-5 drops. For gels, apply 2-3 pumps, and for lotions and creams, apply a pea to dime-sized amount.
In the evening: Start with your PM antioxidant or the SkinCeuticals retinol most appropriate for your skin types and concerns, like SkinCeuticals Retinol 1.0 Maximum Strength Refining Night Cream. Next, apply the products in the same order as you did in your AM routine: Serums, gels, lotions and creams. Again, apply 4-5 drops of serum, 2-3 pumps of gel, and a pea to dime-sized amount of lotions or creams.
Don’t worry about waiting between layering products—you only need to wait a few seconds or until they feel mostly absorbed.
