Lanikai Beauty's Ideal Skin Routine
Retinol Serum
Targets fine lines, texture, and cell turnover; best at night.
Vitamin C Serum
Brightens, evens tone, and helps with dullness and environmental stress. Use in the mornings.
Hyaluronic Serum
Hydrates and plumps by attracting moisture to the skin.
Retinol Cream Moisturizer
Combines retinol benefits with moisturization; good for nightly use if serum alone is too strong.
Vitamin C Cleanser
Cleans while delivering brightening antioxidant benefits; use in the morning.
Short and easy:
-
Retinol = renewal & anti-aging (night).
-
Vitamin C = brightening & protection (day).
-
Hyaluronic = hydration. anytime.
-
Cream moisturizer = strength + moisture.
-
Cleanser = clean + boost in mornings
Key Tips
Order matters: Cleanse → serums (thin → thicker) → moisturizer.
Don’t use Vitamin C Serum and Retinol at the same application: They work best separated (Vitamin C in AM; Retinol in PM).
Keep skin slightly damp before serums to improve absorption.
Always pair with sunscreen in the morning, especially when using retinol.
