Level 2: Build My Routine

Combine morning, evening, and situational routines to make them executable daily.

  1. 1

    3-Step Morning Routine

    Cleanse → Light hydration → Sunscreen. Just follow this order, even on busy days.

    • Core 3 steps of a morning routine: Cleansing → Hydration → Sunscreen. Just remember this sequence.
    • On days with no time, light cleanse + hydration + sunscreen is enough for basic care.
    • Build the habit by checking your daily routine checklist every day.

    Try This

    • · If you finished your nighttime routine the evening before, you can do a light cleanse in the morning.
    • · Sunscreen is the final step—apply it right after hydration.

    It's Better to Avoid

    • · Don't exfoliate or use peeling products every morning.
    • · Don't go outside without sunscreen.

    Evening Recovery Routine

    Remove makeup and focus on hydration and skin barrier recovery.

    • Evening routine: Double cleanse (if wearing makeup) → Toner → Serum (optional) → Moisturizer.
    • If you're not wearing makeup, one cleanse is enough.
    • Night is when your skin recovers, so focus on hydration and barrier care.

    Try This

    • · Include sunscreen in your evening double cleanse routine.
    • · Start applying serums and moisturizers to comfortable areas first.

    It's Better to Avoid

    • · Don't skip cleansing just because you're tired.
    • · Don't exfoliate or peel your skin every evening.

    Minimal Routine for Busy Days

    When you're short on time, cleanse + hydrate + sunscreen covers the basics.

    • Minimal routine: Cleanse → Hydration (lotion/moisturizer) → Sunscreen (morning).
    • You can skip toner, serum, and eye cream. Stick to the core 3 steps.
    • A minimal routine on a busy day is far better than doing nothing at all.

    Try This

    • · Decide on a 'minimal set' of cleanse + hydration + sunscreen ahead of time.
    • · 5 minutes before leaving home is enough.

    It's Better to Avoid

    • · Don't skip cleansing, hydration, and sunscreen just because you're busy.
    • · Don't try a new product for the first time on a busy day.

    Pre-Makeup Routine

    Adjust hydration and product layering so your base applies smoothly.

    • Pre-makeup routine: Cleanse → Toner → Light hydration → Wait 2-3 minutes → Primer (optional) → Base.
    • Too much hydration makes your base slip; too little shows dry patches.
    • Keep T-zone hydration light and cheeks well-hydrated.

    Try This

    • · After hydration, lightly mist with toner or facial mist to adjust texture.
    • · You only need to apply primer to the T-zone and pore-prone areas.

    It's Better to Avoid

    • · Don't apply foundation immediately after hydration.
    • · Don't layer 5-6 steps of skincare and base makeup.

    Add One Product at a Time

    Don't switch multiple products at once. Add one at a time and observe your skin's reaction for at least 3 days.

    • When adding a new product, keep your existing routine and swap only one product. Observe your skin's reaction for 3-7 days.
    • If you notice stinging, redness, or breakouts, stop that product and return to your previous routine.
    • We recommend adding products in this order: Serum → Essence → Moisturizer → Sunscreen.

    Try This

    • · Patch test: Apply a small amount on the inside of your arm or behind your ear and check for reactions over 24 hours.
    • · Recording the opening date and expiration date helps you manage when to replace products.

    It's Better to Avoid

    • · Don't switch 5-6 products at once based on social media or reviews.
    • · Don't keep using a product that causes irritation, thinking you'll get used to it.
