The Art of the Layer: How to Layer Your Skincare Serums Like a Pro 🧪

If you've ever stared at your serums wondering which one to apply first, you're not alone. Layering skincare products can be a tricky business, but getting it right is the secret to unlocking their full potential. The good news? It's easier than you think. ✨
Here at Skin Shot, we've simplified the process. Our serums are designed to be easily layered so you can customize a routine that gives you the best results. The Golden Rules of Skincare Layering ✨
The most important rule is to apply products from thinnest to thickest consistency. This ensures that lighter, more liquid formulas can penetrate your skin first without being blocked by heavier creams.
💧 Water-Based First:  Always apply your water-based serums and toners before any oil-based products.
⏳ Wait a Moment: ⏳ Give each product a minute or two to absorb before moving on to the next one.
☀️ SPF Last: ☀️ Sunscreen is the final and most crucial step of your morning routine.
