THE NIGHT BEFORE

This can be done physically or chemically about 2-3 times a week. Cleanser | Wash your face as this will prepare your skin for your nighttime regimen. Toner | Pick a toner that targets your specific skincare issues (for example, dry skin, acne, etc.) Serum | A highly concentrated dose of active ingredients that move deep into your pores where they are best absorbed. Eye Cream | an eye cream is a moisturizer made specifically for the thinner skin both on and under your eyelids. Aim to find something for fine lines, dark circles and/or puffiness.
