Key steps to take in the morning

1. Wash with water

First up in the morning, cleanse your skin only with water, not a cleanser.
Water will remove a few impurities easily and will keep the skin hydrated

2. Toner

To balance the pH levels of the skin, it is important to apply a toner, otherwise skin will become dry and dehydrated.
Toner will further allow other products to be absorbed.

3. Essence

Essence is a hybrid between a toner and a serum, It will aid cellular turnover and hydrate the complexion.

4. Ampoule

Ampoules provide a higher nutrition as they contain a higher number of active ingredients to target specific skincare concerns.
Use it if and when your skin needs that extra help

5. Serum

Specific concerns like wrinkles, dark spots and dehydration can be eliminated with daily usage of serums.
Serums contain unprecedented amount of active ingredients through concentrated formulae

 

6. Eye Cream

Eyes and areas around the eyes including the brows and the socket bone is the first area anyone notices.
To keep this area smooth, hydrated and protected all day long is most important.
A light eye cream across the brow and the socket bone moving from inner to outer corner of the eye will help in achieving great results by giving you the look you deserve.

7. Moisturizer

A light layer of soothing moisturizer to keep the skin hydrated for longer
