Achieving optimal skin health involves not only selecting the right products but also applying them in the correct sequence. Proper layering ensures that each product works effectively, leading you closer to your skincare goals. Here’s a comprehensive guide on how to layer your SKN LAB products for maximum benefit:
Step 1: Cleanse
Begin both your morning and evening routines with a thorough cleanse to remove makeup, SPF, and impurities. This step prepares your skin for the subsequent products. For a gentle yet effective cleanse, consider using SKN LAB’s Multi-Fruit Enzyme Cleanser. Formulated with Green Tea Extract, Cucumber Fruit Extract, and Papaya Fruit Ferment Extract, it not only cleanses but also provides gentle exfoliation, leaving your skin refreshed and radiant.

Effortless Makeup Removal: Dissolves makeup for a clean canvas, no harsh rubbing needed.
Clear Congestion: Combats clogged pores and reduces breakouts for a more even skin tone.
Step 2: Hydrate
Hydration is crucial for maintaining skin elasticity and barrier function. After cleansing, apply a hydrating serum to replenish moisture. SKN LAB’s Trinity H-HA 10% + Matrixyl 3000 serum combines three types of Hyaluronic Acid with the Matrixyl 3000 peptide, delivering deep hydration and promoting skin firmness. Apply a few drops to your face and neck, allowing it to absorb fully before proceeding.
Step 3: Treat
This step targets specific skin concerns with concentrated formulations. Depending on your needs, choose from the following SKN LAB treatments:
Brightening and Antioxidant Support: The Brightening Complex: Vit C 22% + Ferulic Acid combines 22% L-Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C) with Ferulic Acid and Vitamin E to combat oxidative stress and enhance skin radiance.
Pore Minimisation and Texture Refinement: The Cellular Repair Plant Stem Cell Serum features 10% Niacinamide, Panthenol (Vitamin B5), and Oat Silk to reduce pore size, improve texture, and diminish dark spots.
Exfoliation and Blemish Control: The BHA – Resurfacing Exfoliant Serum contains 2% Salicylic Acid, Green Tea Extract, Allantoin, and Panthenol to exfoliate, soothe, and address blemishes.
Apply the chosen treatment serum to clean, dry skin, focusing on areas of concern. Allow it to absorb completely before moving to the next step.
Step 4: Moisturise
Sealing in hydration and active ingredients is essential for maintaining a healthy skin barrier. Apply a suitable moisturiser to lock in the benefits of the previous steps. While SKN LAB offers various moisturisers, the Thirsty Skin – Leave On Jelly Mask serves as an excellent overnight treatment. Infused with a Multi-Peptide Complex, Aloe Vera, Organic Hemp Oil, and Watermelon Seed Oil, it provides intense hydration and nourishment. Apply a thin layer in the evening, allowing it to work overnight for a refreshed complexion by morning.
Step 5: Protect
Sun protection is a non-negotiable step in any daytime skincare routine. Applying a broad-spectrum SPF shields your skin from harmful UV rays, preventing premature ageing and hyperpigmentation. Ensure to apply sunscreen as the final step in your morning routine, reapplying as necessary throughout the day.
Additional Tips:
Product Absorption: Allow each product to fully absorb before applying the next to prevent pilling and ensure maximum efficacy.
Patch Testing: Before introducing new products into your routine, perform a patch test to check for any adverse reactions.
Consistency: Maintain a consistent routine to achieve and sustain desired results.
By following this structured approach and utilising SKN LAB’s range of products, you can create an effective skincare regimen tailored to your specific needs.
