Do You Apply a Face Serum and Oil Before or After Moisturiser?

A common question that we receive at Nakin is if a face serum and/or face oil should be applied before or after a moisturiser, and we understand why as there can be differing views on this. When it comes to using our natural anti-ageing face products and the majority of other ranges we always recommend working in the order of serum, face oil, and then moisturiser as the last step. Find out more about how to use these products and the benefits of applying them in this order below.

Do You Apply a Face Serum and Oil Before or After Moisturiser?

Using a good natural face serum, face oil and moisturiser together is an excellent way to give the skin on your face and neck an amazing boost of hydration, healing, nourishment, and anti-ageing benefits. While the main product in any skincare routine will be a moisturiser, you can use a serum and oil plus layer these three products together. As well as giving more hydration it will also boost the anti-ageing benefits for your skin, including overall conditioning and calming.

After cleansing start with the Performance Face Serum and our Eye Cream Complex, so the powerful actives can best reach the skin cells to help with repair and deep hydration. Then apply the Revitalising Face Oil which will further seep into the skin cells to calm and nourish, plus then apply the moisturiser after the oil. The moisturiser will then seal all of the goodness from the serum and oil in, plus provide further conditioning and hydration, along with an invisible layer of protection against stressors such as pollution. Then when going out in the daytime apply SPF on top of this.
