##### 🫧 Step 1 – Cleanse Gently (AM)

Start your day with a cleanser that respects your skin barrier. Avoid foaming cleansers with harsh sulfates — instead, look for low-pH formulas with hydrating agents.

Dermatologist Tip:

“Massage your cleanser for at least 60 seconds — it’s the sweet spot for removing overnight oil
without irritation.”

Recommended ingredients:

- Glycerin
- Centella Asiatica
- Panthenol

##### 💧 Step 2 – Hydrate with Toner

Start your day with a cleanser that respects your skin barrier. Avoid foaming cleansers with harsh sulfates — instead, look for low-pH formulas with hydrating agents.

Best formulas:

- Hyaluronic Acid (multi-weight)
- Beta-glucan
- Allantoin

Pro tip: Apply your toner within 30 seconds after cleansing — when skin is still slightly damp — to lock in moisture.

##### 🌿 Step 3 – Treat with Serum

Morning serums focus on protection, not repair. Choose actives that defend your skin from environmental stressors.

Layering rule:

Light → Heavy, Water-based → Oil-based

Don’t mix:

Avoid pairing strong exfoliating acids with Vitamin C in the same routine.

##### 💦 Step 4 – Moisturize Properly

Seal everything in with a lightweight moisturizer. Even oily skin needs moisture — skipping this step causes dehydration and rebound oil.

Checklist for day cream:

- Lightweight gel texture
- Ceramides
- Non-comedogenic formula

Quick hack:

If your office AC dries out your skin, press a small amount on your cheekbones mid-day for an instant refresh.

##### ☀️ Step 5 – Don’t Skip SPF

No matter the weather, SPF is non-negotiable. UV rays cause 80% of premature aging — and yes, they pass through windows.

How to apply correctly:

- Two-finger rule
- Reapply every 2–3 hours if exposed to sunlight
- Broad spectrum SPF 50+

🌤️ Derm-approved pick: fluid textures with Vitamin E or Niacinamide — easy to layer over makeup.

##### ⚠️ Common Mistakes

- Using too many actives in one routine.
- Skipping moisturizer because of oily skin.
- Not cleansing properly before sunscreen.
- Rubbing toner with cotton instead of patting.

“Simplify. The fewer products you use, the more consistent you’ll be — and that’s where results happen.”
— Dr. Anna Le
