Using, or layering the wrong products on top of each other can strip your skin barrier.
There seems to be some confusion with regards to the order in which you are meant to clean your skin. This is because the once-golden skincare three-step rule of “cleanse, tone and moisturise” no longer applies. Some videos posted online will also have you believe that more than three steps are needed, however, specialist dermatologist Dr Vanessa Lapiner says multi-step skincare routines aren’t necessary.
So, instead of “cleanse, tone and moisturise,” you may need to consider “cleanse, moisturise and protect ”. Citing a figure from a study Dr Lapiner read after this period, it is estimated that people wore about 30% less makeup during lockdown. According to Dr Lapiner, using the wrong kind of cleanser could put your skincare routine on the backfoot right from the beginning.
“I think smart skincare is functional skincare where you can use it in lots of different ways and today’s cleansers are so much more than just a cleansing step, or they should be.”
