FAQ Layering Skincare

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What if I am using a very creamy cleanser?

Be careful that a very creamy cleanser does not leave a film on the skin, which will prevent absorption of products. Use a foaming cleanser after it if you must use a creamy cleanser.

Q: Do I always have to wait between steps?

Yes, it’s important to let each product absorb before applying the next. This ensures your skin is able to benefit fully from each product and also will reduce any stickiness.

Q: Can I use facial oils during the day?

It is better to apply facial oils at night because they can degrade sunscreen.

Q: Can I use devices like LED or microcurrent with any products?

No, it’s important to avoid using retinol, acids or high levels of ascorbic acid under LED. With microcurrent, you can layer your favorite serums under a conductive gel.

Q: What if my skin is sensitive?

It's essential to listen to your skin. If you experience irritation, reduce the frequency of use or contact a skincare professional. You can also use a very basic conductive gel if you do not want to use nourishing serums.

Q: Can I mix copper peptides and vitamin C?

It's best to avoid using them at the same time, use them at different times of the day to maximize their effectiveness.
