What is Skin cycling?
You may have heard of this trend from TikTok, but it is in fact often used and recommended in the Dermatological field.
Rotating products in your skincare routine means you are not using the same products every day. This is beneficial mainly for those who use often more “aggressive” serums like those for exfoliation, products containing retinoids, or products that should not be combined. This will save your skin from over-exfoliation, irritation and other side effects.
Simply put, your skin needs a day off and using our Active-Free Day Cream which will provide you extra nourishment whilst still allowing your skin to recover.
In practice, there are 4 cycles, resulting in 4 nights of skin cycling. An example nighttime routine could look like this:
-
Cleanser – Whatever type you prefer.
-
Serums – For targeted treatment based on your needs. See our range of Booster Serums.
-
Cycling – Products that may be too harsh for daily use, or cannot be combined with others such as Niacinamide, Vitamin C, and Retinol.
-
Recovery – Moisturizing only. This is where the Active-Free Day Cream № 152 shines.
