YOUR 3-STEP ROUTINE

Morning

  1. Hydrating Liquid Face Wash
  2. Hyaluronic Hydration Serum
  3. Lightweight Hydrating Face Cream
  4. Sunscreen

Evening

  1. Hydrating Liquid Face Wash
  2. Hyaluronic Hydration Serum
  3. Lightweight Hydrating Face Cream

This gives you a coordinated range where HA is used throughout, but the serum remains the main hydration product while the cream provides the richer moisturising step without being heavy.
