Caroline- I know you may leave TH-cam, but could you at least keep doing these BRAND OVERVIEWS? I, and many others, think this is the best thing since pockets!!
If you haven't already, would you do a video on facial massage? Specifically when to do it in your routine, good products to use for facial massage, benefits, etc. Love your blog and videos! You introduced me to acid toning and it has changed my skin!
I agree with Jessie, I remember you covering facial massages in your blog (as well as TH-cam) but maybe, if you are up for it, doing a hands on video where you're wearing the oil in your face if it's ok 🤗🤓
Hi! I just have to say that you look absolutely gorgeous! I don't know if it's the new haircut or the light, camera or something else, but you are absolutely glowing! And I just have to tell you the following: The other day I was driving a 2 hours drive and was absolutely bored, when the best idea hit me. Caroline Hirons should have had a PODCAST! I mean your knowledge + your humor = genius podcast. Could you please do it? Like tomorrow? I have another long drive coming up next week...
I’m trained in Oskia, from my space nk days, i loved hearing georgie’s story from someone else. Its a beautiful brand with AMAZING products, thank for you sharing your thoughts with us i love it all !! Xxxxxx
Really enjoying these brand overviews, so interesting to hear where a brand has come from and the story behind it alongside your brilliant (as always!) advice. All wrapped up in the beautiful, funny and charming Hirons style, I could listen to you all day!
Really interesting video! MSM has been widely available and recommended for joint health here for many, many years. I had no idea it would benefit the skin. Thanks so much for another terrific video - always informative and entertaining!
Oh wow that booster is really interesting! I only knew Estee Lauder were using EUK134 in their renutriv line (and some random men's product, weird). And the Ordinary too has just released a EUK134 booster (after being invested by Lauder, hmm) so it might be a ... "dupe" for anyone on a budget however I can see the city life booster is so much more than just that ingredient, I need to try it! Thanks for introducing this line and your hair inspires me to crack on half bottle of conditioner when I wash it.
Caroline, you look really lovely at the moment. 😍😍😍 And I love your hair like this (though I'd l to see you as more of a dark blonde, but that's simply because I am too ha). I tried the Renaissance cleanser and my skin would never feel clean afterwards, there would always be a residue unless I went in with a second cleanser which seemed like a waste. Still love their MSM ethos.
Same. It left a very thick residue on my skin. I did my best to try and use it up on my body, but in the end I just binned it. Saying that, I do like their Renaissance mask. :)
I really love this brand and listening to Georgie talk about her passion in building it is fascinating. Think I might have to try the capsules to see if they work! Xx
Erica G Yes, that would be really good as I’m sure there are quite a few viewers who are on a budget. There must be good skin care that doesn’t cost £30 plus!
The city life range sounds like a dream! Can you please do a special video/lecture on anti-pollution/city skincare? Especially a list of ingredients to look out for, what BS to ignore and product recommendations!!
Thank you for existing Caroline! I don't know what i would do without you (although my credit card and my husband wouldn't agree with me :-) ) By the way, you look amazing!
Hi Caroline, Watched this on the train into London this morning - and i knew nothing about Oskia apart from the brand name before watching it - so informative and to the point and you identified a couple of gaps in my skincare i wished to try oskia for - the 25% off was a great pull to try a new brand - and just placed my first order with them - thanks and keep up the 'no nonsense to the point' blogs and vlogs, Preet x
I adore Renaissance Cleansing Gel, as does everyone I've introduced to it. I use it as a mask when I'm chilling in the bath, it's absolute bliss. Your hair is looking sooo healthy these days. I'm losing mine so suffering from major hair envy 😩
carolineeeeeee ☺️ could you do a winter weather change up routine..in skin care. My skin is suffering dry patches dry spots.. am sure there’s loads of us. Introduced - oils. Can you talk about which oils best for different skin types OR overnight masks etc etc.
When there are 10 000 reviews of something, yours is the only one I need. If there is 10 000 mentions of something and you don’t mention it I am more sceptical 😅
Thank you Carolin! Beautiful review of one of my favorite brands 😍 My first product was Renaissance Cleansing Gel (surprise, surprise 😂) and then I got “addicted’ to Get Up & Glow among all other Oskia products (I also use Get Up & Glow on the top of my makeup as a finishing touch.... It makes my skin look so radiant 😊 and I feel as if I’m 25 again 😊 and that was long time ago 😂 21 years ago to be more precise 🤣). Loads of love to you, Željka
I just finished week two of Vitner's Daughter. My skin is really changing. Boy is it pricey and I was worried my expectations would be too high but I was wrong. Totally worth the money. Thanks for the rec.
I learned a great deal about this skincare line & I find it's approach refreshing. Not sure if it's available in Canada but it's worth checking out. I have the Kate Somerville goat cleanser & absolutely love what it does for my skin. I just shake the container before applying & its perfection. Hoping this cleanser comes back in the future.
Hi Caroline! Thank you for your reviews! I'm on my second bottle of Brightlight, and I've noticed it's started separating and looking a tad darker. Would. You. Believe. that after eons of doing my research and reading up on products, the dated jar/arrow symbol thingie has never registered? Being from the US, I've always expected an expiration stamp on the product and if there was none, I ignored the issue. Those slumbering brain cells suddenly woke up in alarm, and I cursed myself for throwing the box out as surely an expiration would be on it. Well, long story short it's past the expiration date. I suppose it's the Vitamin C that's turned, so should I toss it? I've read conflicting info regarding using products with Vitamin C past its prime, as in it actually is harmful rather than ineffective. Also, are there any product ingredients in general that refrigeration would harm? Cuz well, greedy little pig here purchased too many bright and shiny things all around the same time, and I will never get through them before they all expire together. Goodness, that sounded rather dire! Thanks in advance.
good morning Caroline, I have dry dehydrated skin, I was looking into oskia, but do you have better recommendations? although oskia is a very good brand., but nothing in their descriptions targets dry sin!. if I am going to invest in skincare, I'd like to know what it targets. dry mature skin, would love your recommendations. thanks again.. xoxo.. love you chanel and content lol especially your sense of humor... or should I say humour? I miss living in London! all my best . Sarah
Oh my GOODNESS! I've never genuinely laughed so loud at a video than when you said you wouldn't waist it on Mr. Hiron's hairy bottom!! 😂 thanks for the review!
Hi Caroline! I am really interested in the citylife booster but I wanted to ask you about the limonene inside! Isn’t it causing photosensitivity/phototoxicity to the skin? Isn’t it fighting against the antioxidants in the product? Thanks!
Caroline, Caroline, Caroline. Please stop making me laugh. You are toooooo naughty. Poor Mr Hirons. You are such a treasure. Love your brand reviews. N x
So Good!!! I like these types of videos it really gives me ideas of product lines are out there! Could you do omorovicza next? I remember you saying very positive things a couple yeas ago about the balm....
Thanks for review Caroline! Is CityLife range safe to use with/after acids? I heard that EUK134 is not compatible with any direct acid. I exfoliate with 2% Salicylic acid every morning and evening, can I apply the Facial mist and CityLife booster after that in my routine? Thanks!
Really enjoying these brand videos you are doing lots of good products and tips and with that 25% off voucher that my Christmas presents for my girl friends sorted out xx
the renaissance cleansing gel is quite fragranced IMO, it definitely lingers on my skin, (beautiful rose scent), but for those who are particularly sensitive to 'added' fragrance, as it is indeed 'added' ingredient and not simply a result of the essential oil content of the cleanser itself, this product is not something i would recommend
Hi Caroline this was a brilliant informative video, have never used oskia but very interested to try it after watching this! Would you take the exfoliating scrub off with a flannel the way you would a cleanser? X
If I can afford only one - which one should I choose? I have clarins new product and LOVE it -without your recommendation I would never bite a bullet. I also went for AVON night cream. Or any followers? If you could buy only one? I have sensitive but combination skin. Thank you
Smooth straight blond hair look fabulous! Like your humor a lot , hair are enhancing your bright nice skin , love oskia it is so indulging and cosmetically elegant , keep it up Caroline you are so vital ,God bless you Madam 💜💜💜💛💛💛💚💚💚💙💙💙💗💗💗💖💖💖💖💖
Really enjoy these videos! yikes to the international shipping cost being over $25 (or $200+ min for free ship😳)...makes me even more appreciative of last week's free shipping from Merumaya w/ such a low min & all the more glad I ended up placing an order! I initially wavered & then saw it as a sign when the code still worked Wed several hours after the deadline😉. Can't wait to try the new goodies when they arrive! Back to THIS video though, I definitely do hope to try several of these products in the future; if I recall correctly I believe they're carried on either Cult or BeautyBay so may look into getting a thing or two from them (as even w/ the discount factored in, that will end up less pricey). As always, thanks for the video! You're looking especially fab today! Cheers, Melissa🔆 (Ohio, USA)
A really lovely video as always Caroline , I just wanted to know as I think I missed it was the an age demographic that it is meant for or can any age use the products ? :)
Hey Caroline! Have been watching your channel for a while and my skin has completely changed since I've started following your tips :) Question for you. I am planning to travel around southeast Asia for around 3-6 months and have limited space to pack. I have my skincare essentials already (cleanser, moisturizer and sunscreen). If I have 1 more product I can fit in my bag, what would you suggest? An acid of some sort or something hydrating?
Caroline, I love you videos so much. I also have a question. I am 19 and have sensitive skin that is oily with the occasional blemish or 2. What is a good basic skin care routine you would recommend? I live in the US so keep that in mind as well. Thanks so much!
Caroline, can you add the main enchilada product into a moisturizing sunscreen?? In the am I do a vitamin C, followed by a 10% niacinamide mixwd into a tiny bit of moisturizer, followed by my moisturizing SPF30. I’d love to turn H & O into water on my skin, please. Thoughts?
Love love this vid just wondering is there any products I should give a miss in this range as I got reactive skin where it feels like sun burn many thanks Caroline xxxx
Hello, Caroline!!! Your fan from Taiwan. I’ve been breaking in my forehead and between my eyebrows, sometimes along the jawline with those big hard acnes. In that case, could I still put on the blue cocoon? Thanks so much!!! Xxx
I didn't think to check other places besides the trusty Sephora & Ulta. So I bit the preverbial bullet & paid the shipping cost. I just hope it doesn't take a month to get to me.
Just found your blog and vlog because of your Instagram post with Lisa Potter Dixon and am now binge watching your vlog and reading your blog. Have you ever review Liz Earle? When would I add Pixi Glow Tonic to my skincare regime?
Is BRIGHTLIGHT better for hyperpigmentation than Drunk Elephant C-Derma? Also, in addition to BRIGHTLIGHT, can you recommend a fabulous, or your favorite VITAMIN C product?
+Caroline Hirons, Hi Caroline, I am in the States and just finding the Oskia brand as I am researching for new skincare products. Finding your video, I was curious if you are still using these products.
@@CarolineHirons01 Thank you. I just ordered some of their products and can't wait to try these beautiful goodies. Your video was so thorough that I couldn't resist.
I would love to know how you get everything done as a successful business women , mother and wife . Would you ever consider doing a video ? Also love your top , where is it from ? 👍
The Renaissance Cleanser leaves a film on my face, even though I use a flannel. Glossier Milky Jelly does the same. I can't seem to pinpoint the ingredient that is causing it. Any idea?
I'm interested in some of these moisturizers, but I always come back to the same question. Moisturizers go on last to seal in serums, oils, treatments. So HOW to they make it through all those barriers and into the skin???
I’ve wondered this as well, this is why I tend to save money on moisturizer and not get a “treatment” one just basic moisturizer and use serums for treatments like retinol, vitamin c or niacinamide. I’m sticking to this logic until someone can convince me otherwise.
Great question! So serums, generally speaking, have a smaller molecular structure to penetrate deeper into your skin, and work from the inside, out, to correct the condition of the skin. Moisturizers are designed for your skin type, as an occlusive, and to treat your skin more on a surface level. This being said, well-formulated products have a specific delivery system designed so ingredients can penetrate and create change. And this can be in corrective serums or moisturizers and such. Serums are like your main course in a meal; it will satisfy you and treat your skin. But if I can treat my skin in multiple different ways, with cleansers, toners, acids, serums, and moisturizers, why wouldn’t I? I want to have an appetizer, a main course, wine, and dessert, thank you very much. Hope this helps.
Devon, Thanks for spending so much time explaining all this to me. I definitely got the answer to my question! This sort of has to do with this brand, as they carry similar products which I will touch on- I just have not tried them yet. If you could answer this BIG question, I think almost everything, after 2 years, would fall into place for me. Items go on thinnest to thickest; however, there are times when I can't tell what's thicker. For example, is Murad's Rapid Age-Spot and Pigment Lightening Serum thicker than say Sunday Riley's Juno Oil? And what about Paula's Choice C15 Booster. Boosters are supposed to go on first to help facilitate the arrival of the next product. Yet, that C15 booster seems thicker than my Drunk Elephant C-Firma Day Serum? UGH!
Jenny, I can’t give you advice on product specifics, with your examples per say, because I haven’t use those before, but here is what you should take away: Yes, in some sense, products are best suited to be used thinnest to thickest. However there are exceptions, and this is kind of the advice that I give to people in the clinic. 1. What is/are the issues are you trying to help or correct? *Based on these products you’ve mentioned, it sounds like your issues are more on pigmentation, so we’ll use that as an example. 2. You probably have water based products and oil based products. Water and oil don’t mix well, and if you’re using a facial oil first and than your water based serums second, they won’t penetrate very well, because it’s hard to get through an oil. 3. Follow the instructions...for the most part. I don’t know too much about “booster” products-to be quite frank they seem a little gimmicky to me-if it works and is really designed to help your treatment products penetrate better, than I would apply it first. 4. That Murad product sounds like a pigment brightener/melanin suppressant, so if pigmentation is your main concern I would apply that first, if it’s the most important to you to treat. 5. The drunk elephant product is a vitamin C product so I would apply that afterward, as vitamin C is a great antioxidant that helps with preventing the synthesis of pigmentation, and underlying redness associated with broken capillaries, or sun damage and will boost your protection from the environment and the sun. 6. Wack on a moisturizer or facial oil, for your skin type. If it’s also treatment product, great, if not, that’s okay, and then just slap on a good SPF. So to wrap it up, my recommendation is to follow directions, whether you see a professional therapist for treatments or you’re reading from the box. Make sure you’re mindful of the type of products you’re putting on your skin in your specific routine; too many actives-depending on the products-at once may do more harm than good. And as far as layering-which was your main question-try not to overthink it. Use your water based treatment products first-thinnest to thickest and/or also by skin concern, and then if you like facial oils use them afterward, and then slap on SPF. I’m not sure, but I think you may be trying to do too much at once. Let me know if any of this makes sense, or if it doesn’t and I will try to clarify. I’m always open for questions.
Devon, I am curious about your thoughts on this layering routine, which actually has the oil seru, going first: www.infiore.net/blogs/in-vigilare/114382596-the-right-way-to-layer-your-in-fiore I don't use these products specifically, but it has gotten me curious!
i simply adore you!! you're too funny. thanks for introducing me to another amazing looking and sounding brand though my bank account is not going to be so impressed.. must check out their products!! have a fab monday x x
Caroline, and not that you didn't before, but you're looking absolutely incredible right now. Glowing xx
was just thinking the same thing!🔆
agree
Caroline- I know you may leave TH-cam, but could you at least keep doing these BRAND OVERVIEWS? I, and many others, think this is the best thing since pockets!!
+jenny koppy I’m not going anywhere. 😘
Caroline Hirons a moment of panic 😱
Would love to see a "best in each skin care category" video.
If you haven't already, would you do a video on facial massage? Specifically when to do it in your routine, good products to use for facial massage, benefits, etc. Love your blog and videos! You introduced me to acid toning and it has changed my skin!
I agree with Jessie, I remember you covering facial massages in your blog (as well as TH-cam) but maybe, if you are up for it, doing a hands on video where you're wearing the oil in your face if it's ok 🤗🤓
There is one quick video th-cam.com/video/m4VpzSWd0uo/w-d-xo.html
Thank You!
You look so lovely here Caroline 😍! Could you please do a video on facial massage techniques that we could do at home?
Hi! I just have to say that you look absolutely gorgeous! I don't know if it's the new haircut or the light, camera or something else, but you are absolutely glowing!
And I just have to tell you the following: The other day I was driving a 2 hours drive and was absolutely bored, when the best idea hit me. Caroline Hirons should have had a PODCAST!

Lactic acid opens the barn door for a PAR-TAY! I could NOT love you more, Ms. Hirons!
"Tough Tits" I'm so done 😂😂😂💀💀💀Thank you for an awesome video on something I've never heard of and now am dying to try 💞💞💞😘☺😘
Caroline, you look really lovely at the moment. 😍😍😍
And I love your hair like this (though I'd l to see you as more of a dark blonde, but that's simply because I am too ha).

Yes I think her hair like this makes her look younger!

Your hair is specially nice like that!
I really love this brand and listening to Georgie talk about her passion in building it is fascinating. Think I might have to try the capsules to see if they work! Xx
Thanks for the review! That blue top looks amazing on you!
Caroline, are you able to do some reviews on more affordable skin care? Also, Will you be vlogging soon? Absolutely love the vlogs x
She has reviewed the Ordinary but I would love if she gave her thoughts on drugstore skincare, for those of us on a budget!!!!
Erica G Yes, that would be really good as I’m sure there are quite a few viewers who are on a budget. There must be good skin care that doesn’t cost £30 plus!
The city life range sounds like a dream! Can you please do a special video/lecture on anti-pollution/city skincare? Especially a list of ingredients to look out for, what BS to ignore and product recommendations!!
Thank you for existing Caroline! I don't know what i would do without you (although my credit card and my husband wouldn't agree with me :-) ) By the way, you look amazing!

Your brand overviews are fab, so useful and I’m finding out about great brands I didn’t know existed!
Haven't even watched it yet, but a Hirons vid is always smile-making
I adore Renaissance Cleansing Gel, as does everyone I've introduced to it. I use it as a mask when I'm chilling in the bath, it's absolute bliss.
Your hair is looking sooo healthy these days. I'm losing mine so suffering from major hair envy 😩
carolineeeeeee ☺️ could you do a winter weather change up routine..in skin care. My skin is suffering dry patches dry spots.. am sure there’s loads of us. Introduced - oils. Can you talk about which oils best for different skin types OR overnight masks etc etc.
Moisturiser etc too.
Salma Khan there's a great video by gothamista. She explains what oil is good for each skin type and skin routine for each season
When there are 10 000 reviews of something, yours is the only one I need. If there is 10 000 mentions of something and you don’t mention it I am more sceptical 😅

Currently feeling like I need to get myself trying out some Oskia and pronto! Great review.
Hirons~ I know we would all love a video about your health journey (i.e. weight loss). You look beautiful and healthy,
I learned a great deal about this skincare line & I find it's approach refreshing. Not sure if it's available in Canada but it's worth checking out. I have the Kate Somerville goat cleanser & absolutely love what it does for my skin. I just shake the container before applying & its perfection. Hoping this cleanser comes back in the future.
Hi Caroline, with Christmas party season coming up could you do a video on how to tackle bacne? I hate putting on tan to cover it up. Thanks a mil.
Hi Caroline! Thank you for your reviews! I'm on my second bottle of Brightlight, and I've noticed it's started separating and looking a tad darker. Would. You.

Why would anyone (in North America) shop directly on the Oskia site when Cultbeauty carries the brand and offers free shipping over 40pounds?
good morning Caroline, I have dry dehydrated skin, I was looking into oskia, but do you have better recommendations? although oskia is a very good brand., but nothing in their descriptions targets dry sin!. if I am going to invest in skincare, I'd like to know what it targets. dry mature skin, would love your recommendations. thanks again.. xoxo.. love you chanel and content lol especially your sense of humor... or should I say humour? I miss living in London! all my best .

Oh my GOODNESS! I've never genuinely laughed so loud at a video than when you said you wouldn't waist it on Mr. Hiron's hairy bottom!! 😂 thanks for the review!
Thank you for that overview, I'm a 49 year old woman I've been using Oskia for 12 months I really like it. should I be using something else?
Absolutely fabulous brand, Oskia!
Hi Caroline! I am really interested in the citylife booster but I wanted to ask you about the limonene inside! Isn’t it causing photosensitivity/phototoxicity to the skin? Isn’t it fighting against the antioxidants in the product? Thanks!
I'm all over this brand if they ship to the US! Looks incredible and I love the philosophy behind the brand.
C Ross they’re on Cult Beauty which will ship for free. Hopefully this code makes up for shipping directly from the company’s site!
Caroline, Caroline, Caroline. Please stop making me laugh. You are toooooo naughty. Poor Mr Hirons. You are such a treasure. Love your brand reviews. N x
Thank you for doing this video. I always learn so much from you!
You are looking fab Caroline! Which would i use with red irritated skin? Thanks x
So Good!!! I like these types of videos it really gives me ideas of product lines are out there! Could you do omorovicza next? I remember you saying very positive things a couple yeas ago about the balm....

Hello, Caroline!!! Your fan from Taiwan. I’ve been breaking in my forehead and between my eyebrows, sometimes along the jawline with those big hard acnes. In that case, could I still put on the blue cocoon? Thanks so much!!! Xxx
I have the "Get up and glow" serum from this brand. THE MOST excellent product after a hangover or jetlag.
Mrs H. Will you please talk to Oskia about selling their products in the US!! Even with discounts, shipping is expensive.
Yes!! I'm dying to try out their products but I cant seem to justify spending over $25 on shipping!!!
I didn't think to check other places besides the trusty Sephora & Ulta. So I bit the preverbial bullet & paid the shipping cost. I just hope it doesn't take a month to get to me.
Beauty bay
space nk, beautybay and cult beauty have it for USA
Just found your blog and vlog because of your Instagram post with Lisa Potter Dixon and am now binge watching your vlog and reading your blog. Have you ever review Liz Earle? When would I add Pixi Glow Tonic to my skincare regime?
Is BRIGHTLIGHT better for hyperpigmentation than Drunk Elephant C-Derma? Also, in addition to BRIGHTLIGHT, can you recommend a fabulous, or your favorite VITAMIN C product?
+Caroline Hirons, Hi Caroline, I am in the States and just finding the Oskia brand as I am researching for new skincare products. Finding your video, I was curious if you are still using these products.
I love Oskia. Will always use them
@@CarolineHirons01 Thank you. I just ordered some of their products and can't wait to try these beautiful goodies. Your video was so thorough that I couldn't resist.

Really enjoyed this one, thank you :) also, if you decided not to do youtube, but did a podcast instead, i would be VERY into that.
my glow got up and went omg
Looking fab Caroline!! 👌🏻👌🏻
Woo! I love this hair style on you. The hairy bottom comment was brill, ha
The Renaissance Cleanser leaves a film on my face, even though I use a flannel. Glossier Milky Jelly does the same. I can't seem to pinpoint the ingredient that is causing it. Any idea?
Hi could you please do one on Elemis. I would be very interested to see what your opinion of them is
Hi is the city range eye and lip cream for use in the evenings only as it has retinol in it? Tks!
So generous! Caroline, can you give us, your loyals, a recovery routine for those rare nights when one sleeps in one's makeup? Asking for a friend 😬😬😬
I'm interested in some of these moisturizers, but I always come back to the same question. Moisturizers go on last to seal in serums, oils, treatments. So HOW to they make it through all those barriers and into the skin???
I’ve wondered this as well, this is why I tend to save money on moisturizer and not get a “treatment” one just basic moisturizer and use serums for treatments like retinol, vitamin c or niacinamide. I’m sticking to this logic until someone can convince me otherwise.
Great question! So serums, generally speaking, have a smaller molecular structure to penetrate deeper into your skin, and work from the inside, out, to correct the condition of the skin. Moisturizers are designed for your skin type, as an occlusive, and to treat your skin more on a surface level.
This being said, well-formulated products have a specific delivery system designed so ingredients can penetrate and create change. And this can be in corrective serums or moisturizers and such.
Serums are like your main course in a meal; it will satisfy you and treat your skin. But if I can treat my skin in multiple different ways, with cleansers, toners, acids, serums, and moisturizers, why wouldn’t I? I want to have an appetizer, a main course, wine, and dessert, thank you very much.
Hope this helps.
Devon, Thanks for spending so much time explaining all this to me. I definitely got the answer to my question! This sort of has to do with this brand, as they carry similar products which I will touch on- I just have not tried them yet. If you could answer this BIG question, I think almost everything, after 2 years, would fall into place for me. Items go on thinnest to thickest; however, there are times when I can't tell what's thicker. For example, is Murad's Rapid Age-Spot and Pigment Lightening Serum thicker than say Sunday Riley's Juno Oil? And what about Paula's Choice C15 Booster. Boosters are supposed to go on first to help facilitate the arrival of the next product. Yet, that C15 booster seems thicker than my Drunk Elephant C-Firma Day Serum? UGH!
Jenny, I can’t give you advice on product specifics, with your examples per say, because I haven’t use those before, but here is what you should take away:
Yes, in some sense, products are best suited to be used thinnest to thickest. However there are exceptions, and this is kind of the advice that I give to people in the clinic.
1. What is/are the issues are you trying to help or correct?
*Based on these products you’ve mentioned, it sounds like your issues are more on pigmentation, so we’ll use that as an example.
2. You probably have water based products and oil based products. Water and oil don’t mix well, and if you’re using a facial oil first and than your water based serums second, they won’t penetrate very well, because it’s hard to get through an oil.
3. Follow the instructions...for the most part. I don’t know too much about “booster” products-to be quite frank they seem a little gimmicky to me-if it works and is really designed to help your treatment products penetrate better, than I would apply it first.
4. That Murad product sounds like a pigment brightener/melanin suppressant, so if pigmentation is your main concern I would apply that first, if it’s the most important to you to treat.
5. The drunk elephant product is a vitamin C product so I would apply that afterward, as vitamin C is a great antioxidant that helps with preventing the synthesis of pigmentation, and underlying redness associated with broken capillaries, or sun damage and will boost your protection from the environment and the sun.
6. Wack on a moisturizer or facial oil, for your skin type. If it’s also treatment product, great, if not, that’s okay, and then just slap on a good SPF.
So to wrap it up, my recommendation is to follow directions, whether you see a professional therapist for treatments or you’re reading from the box. Make sure you’re mindful of the type of products you’re putting on your skin in your specific routine; too many actives-depending on the products-at once may do more harm than good. And as far as layering-which was your main question-try not to overthink it. Use your water based treatment products first-thinnest to thickest and/or also by skin concern, and then if you like facial oils use them afterward, and then slap on SPF.
I’m not sure, but I think you may be trying to do too much at once.
Let me know if any of this makes sense, or if it doesn’t and I will try to clarify. I’m always open for questions.
Devon, I am curious about your thoughts on this layering routine, which actually has the oil seru, going first: www.infiore.net/blogs/in-vigilare/114382596-the-right-way-to-layer-your-in-fiore
I don't use these products specifically, but it has gotten me curious!

You’re hilarious lol best humour in the beauty world.
i simply adore you!! you're too funny. thanks for introducing me to another amazing looking and sounding brand though my bank account is not going to be so impressed.. must check out their products!! have a fab monday x x
Hi Caroline. Am I still able to join the waiting list to have a facial with you? If yes, how do I join the waiting list please? Many thanks.
You pique my interest in this brand again, but I think I will purchase from either Cult Beauty or Beauty Bay later on 😬
Very nice line.
