<\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nHave you ever wondered if the order that you perform your skin care routine actually makes a difference on the effectiveness of the products? Why do we always cleanse our skin before using a moisturizer, or does it change anything if a serum is applied after the moisturizer instead of before?\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
What Does An Effective Skin Care Routine Consist Of?<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nBefore we talk about the order of your skin care routine, and why you should perform it in that order, let\u2019s talk a little about what an effective skin care routine really looks like.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
At its most bare bones, a skin care routine should consist of two different but equally important components:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
\r\n- A cleanser<\/li>\r\n
- A moisturizer<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
While that may seem simple, that\u2019s where everyone should start putting together their own<\/em> skin care routine. But why are those the most important components?<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
A cleanser is essential for being able to make sure that you\u2019re working with a clean, blank slate when applying any other products you may be using. If you don\u2019t cleanse your skin, you\u2019re working through a barrier that may include makeup, dead skin cells, and other environmental build up. This essentially clogs the pores and stops any products from making their way through and being effective. That\u2019s why, as we\u2019ll discuss next, a cleanser should always be the first step in your skin care routine (with one, very important exception).\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
A good quality moisturizer is the book end on the other side of an effective skin care routine. Once you\u2019re done with your products and are ready to either head out for the day or get into bed, moisturizers help to keep the skin protected and hydrated. This is important because the vast majority of age-related concerns are multiplied by dry, dehydrated skin. When you\u2019re able to keep in all that essential moisture, you help your skin help itself.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
The Best Order For Your Skin Care Products and Why<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nOk, so you know you should always use a cleanser and a moisturizer. But are there other products that you should be including, and what order should you put them on?\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Makeup Remover<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nWhile cleanser is the best first step in any skin care routine, if you wear makeup, you want to make sure that you take that off before you cleanse. Doubling cleansing has become popular, especially in the Korean beauty culture, for exactly this reason.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
For cleansing to really be effective, it needs to be able to touch the skin and break down all of those oils and dead skin cells. If it\u2019s working against a layer of makeup, you likely aren\u2019t able to really thoroughly cleanse the skin.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Micellar water<\/a>, which you may not have heard of before, is a great first step to take before cleansing. Essentially, micellar water consists of micelles (which are tiny balls of oil molecules that were designed for cleansing) that are suspended in \u201csoft\u201d water. Those micelles are naturally attracted to oil and dirt, so they can draw them out of the skin and prepare it for cleansing, all without drying out the skin.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Cleanser<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nAs we briefly touched on above, a cleanser that works with your specific skin type is an absolutely essential part of the skin care process. Without cleansing, everything else that you do in your skin care routine is futile.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Cleansers come in all different varieties.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
People who have oily or combination skin should try to find a clay or gel cleanser, while those with dry or sensitive skin will likely do better with a milky, cream, or oil-based cleanser. It can sometimes require a little trial and error, but finding a cleanser that works with your specific skin type really can be a game changer.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
After cleansing your skin, make sure that you pat it dry instead of rubbing. This is a common mistake that many people make, but rubbing the skin can not only irritate it and make it red, but also quicken the development of sagging, fine lines, and wrinkles.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Toner<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nWhile this isn\u2019t necessarily for everyone, many people have been adding the additional step of using a toner after their cleanser but before moving on to the next part of the routine.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Toners aren\u2019t at all the harsh drying formulas they used to be. Gone are the toners of the 1980s and 1990s that were all alcohol-based and burned as soon as they were applied. The newer breed of toners were designed to be specific to skin types, and many don\u2019t contain any alcohol at all.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Essentially, toners work as a second \u201cpass\u201d at helping to remove any remaining dead skin cells from the pores before moving on to applying products. Many toners also work as chemical exfoliants, really helping to encourage the skin to start renewing itself quicker. It\u2019s a great step to consider adding into your skin care routine.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Serums<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nAfter the skin has been prepared for skin care products, the best place to start is with your serums. Specifically, you\u2019ll want to first apply any targeted serums, like MiamiMD\u2019s Intensive Eye Repair Serum<\/a> or Dark Spot Corrector<\/a>. This allows them to work directly on your areas of concern, and not have to fight through another serum to be effective.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Moisturizer<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nThe final step in a good skin care routine is a moisturizer (with the exception of a potential additional step, which we\u2019ll discuss next).\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
A quality moisturizer helps seal in both moisture and the products that you\u2019ve applied, as well as helps to keep external, environmental influences out. The factor that this relates to as much is something that is often referred to as the skin\u2019s moisture barrier<\/a>. Nearly everything that we do is trying to protect this essential, protective part of the skin.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Consider a multi-tasking cream like MiamiMD\u2019s Age-Defying Lift & Firm Cream<\/a>. We designed this cream as part of our focus on functional beauty — it provides visible benefits within minutes of application as well as providing additional, compounded benefits with long-term use. Your skin can look firmer and have more elasticity every time you use it, further rolling back the clock with each application.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Sunscreen<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nIf you\u2019re performing your skin care routine before heading out for the day, your last step should always be to apply sunscreen. The number one cause of age-related concerns, other than the skin\u2019s natural aging process, is sun exposure. The sun breaks down collagen, slows down the body\u2019s ability to replace it, and makes the skin lose its natural elasticity much quicker than it normally would.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
A good sunscreen<\/a> should include at least 30 SPF, be waterproof, and be able fight off both UV-A and UV-B rays (referred to as being \u201cbroad spectrum\u201d). There are plenty of moisturizers and foundations that include sunscreen now, but make sure that you add one if the products that you use do not have one naturally built in. It\u2019s one of the easiest ways to protect yourself and keep your skin looking as young and radiant as possible for as long as it can.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
In Conclusion\u2026<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nNo matter which MiamiMD<\/a> skin care products that you use, make sure to apply them in the right order: cleanser, serums, then moisturizer (with a few added steps, if they apply to you!). This can make your routine the most efficient it can possibly be.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The sun breaks down collagen, slows down the body\u2019s ability to replace it, and makes the skin lose its natural elasticity much quicker than it normally would.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
A good sunscreen<\/a> should include at least 30 SPF, be waterproof, and be able fight off both UV-A and UV-B rays (referred to as being \u201cbroad spectrum\u201d). There are plenty of moisturizers and foundations that include sunscreen now, but make sure that you add one if the products that you use do not have one naturally built in. It\u2019s one of the easiest ways to protect yourself and keep your skin looking as young and radiant as possible for as long as it can.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
