Even if you're not on board with the rigorous multi-step skincare people swear by, you're likely using more than one product in your a.m. routine.

Even if it's just a basic moisturizer and an SPF, it's crucial to apply them in the right order to avoid negating the benefits. Truthfully, it could be wasteful of your time, money, and effort if you don't apply products in the right order.

If you put on a heavier cream, it will usually have a wax in it, so any water-based material applied after will have a hard time getting through. The best rule is to apply your products from lightest or thinnest to heaviest or thickest. The only exceptions are oils and sunscreen. Even though they feel runny, oils should go toward the end, right before sunscreen, which is always last.

Assuming you've already washed your face, let the following list serve as your layering guide. Don't freak out if you're not applying everything below. Simply organize what you do use based on the order and be happy.
Toner or Essence Banner

Start with anything that has the same fluidity as water. This allows the thin fluid to sink deeply into the skin and also preps for the following step. Water is a great solvent, so if your skin is moist, you are opening more channels for it to receive other products.

Serum Banner

Serums are usually packed with strong ingredients that can really change the skin - they're the workhorse of skincare products. As such, it's best to apply them as early as possible so the skin can directly absorb as much of the product as possible.

While some lotions are on the thicker, heavier side, most formulas are fairly thin. You may not use a lotion, but if your skin is particularly dry, consider applying it pre cream or oil.

In general, the thicker the cream, the more likely it is to rely on waxy ingredients that create a moisture-retaining barrier. Creams really lock in hydration.

Oil Banner

This is your sealant. Oils act as barrier protection, essentially working to keep moisture in and the bad stuff out. While they do add a little hydration, it's not nearly as much as a thick cream that contains glycerin or hyaluronic acid. They also deliver instant softness, leaving your skin silky smooth.

SPF Banner

No matter whether your preferred formula is light or heavy, sunscreen should always be applied last. It forms a uniform film on top of the skin to shield it. If you put anything other than makeup on top, you may disrupt the film and open it up for the sun to penetrate.

Give your skin a few minutes to settle and for some of the extra moisture in the formulas to evaporate (they're meant to) before diving into your foundation.

Are there certain combinations to avoid?

Every once in a while, certain ingredients don't play nice together and can cause a reaction on your skin. If you're going to layer multiple strong ingredients that all have the potential to irritate, like benzoyl peroxide, glycolic acid, retinol, and vitamin C, do a small patch first behind your ear to see if your skin can withstand it.
