HOW TO USE skinbetter science® PRODUCTS

Skincare Regimen Recommended Order of Application

skinbetter science products are easily incorporated into your current routine, even when using other skincare products. A good rule of thumb when applying products is to apply from the lightest to heaviest consistency: serums and gels first, followed by lotions, and then creams. An exception to this rule is that InterFuse Intensive Treatment LINES should always be applied in the order listed below to allow for optimal delivery of this product to the skin.

As you would with any changes to your skincare regimen, we recommend adding one new product at a time and slowly incorporating any additional products.

Please Note:

The following "how-to" videos are listed in the recommended order of application.

Morning Regimen products are shown with black text on a white background.

Evening Regimen products are shown with white text on a black backround.
