Understanding the Science of Layering Face Oils
The Golden Rule: Thinnest to Thickest
The fundamental principle of skincare layering is to apply products from thinnest to thickest consistency. This ensures each product penetrates effectively without being blocked by heavier formulations.
Where Does Kumkumadi Fit?
Kumkumadi Face Oil, being an oil-based product, should typically be applied as one of the last steps in your routine. However, there are exceptions and variations depending on your skin type and the other products you're using. Let's explore the perfect routines!
Complete Morning Skincare Routine with Kumkumadi
Morning Routine: Glowing Skin All Day
-
Cleanse: Use Salicylic Acid Facewash with Tea Tree to remove overnight oil and impurities. Gently massage for 1 minute, rinse with lukewarm water.
Shop Facewash → - Tone (Optional): Apply rose water or hydrating toner to balance pH and prep skin for better absorption.
-
