How many products do I need?
It's important to keep in mind that everyone's skin is unique, so what works for one person may not work for another. However a good starting point is to think of your regimen in three steps: Prepare, Manage, and Protect. This can help ensure that you're covering all the bases when it comes to taking care of your skin. It's important to address the distinction between a regimen and a routine. When we say regimen, we’re talking about the whole skincare process including Night & Day (AM & PM) and may span multiple days in the week. A routine on the other hand are the products that are used in one application. AM routine or PM routine.
Step 1: Prepare
The Prepare stage is where you want to cleanse your skin and prepare it to receive active ingredients. Whether you want to start the day fresh or unwind from partying all night, it all starts with a great cleanser.
Consider using our Nature's Enzyme Cleanser to effectively cleanse the skin whilst maintaining the skin’s moisture barrier. If makeup is a concern our balancing Gentle Milk Cleanser removes the day’s pollutants, excess oils, and makeup without stripping the skin of natural oils. It features a mix of protective desert lime, emu apple, hydrating rosehip oil, and healing aloe vera.
Step 2: Manage
The Manage stage is where you address specific skin concerns using targeted ingredients. This includes eye serums/gels, toning mists, face serums, and face oils which means you may have multiple management products in your regimen.
When layering skincare, the general rule is to apply products from lightest to heaviest in texture to ensure optimal delivery of key ingredients to your skin. The format is also a factor. You’ll want to apply water-based treatments first, followed by anhydrous (water-free) solutions or oil formulations, followed by creams or suspensions.
Step 3: Protect
The Protect stage is where you lock in the benefits of the treatments and support the skin barrier. Our Light Moisturiser with Hyaluronic Acid features desert lime to boost moisture retention for firm, youthful skin and refresh dull complexions, along with antioxidant-rich green tea bringing calming vibes. We also offer a nourishing moisturiser, Renewal Lotion or Night Radiance Cream allowing your skin to repair and provide a restful nights sleep. Depending on your skin type and skin’s needs, there is something for everyone.
Applying SPF should always be the last step in your morning skincare routine. This helps to protect against UV damage.
Additional Regimen Information

We recommend allowing each product to fully absorb into the skin before applying the next one.
When can I expect to see results?
Everyone’s skin is different, everyone will have a unique response to new skincare products. The important thing is to be patient and consistent.
What is an Emulsion?
Emulsions are a mixture of two or more substances until they are homogenised. Our products are serum emulsions and cream emulsions, be sure to follow the thinnest to thickest rule in determining where they fit.
How to stop skincare pilling?
To reduce the chances of pilling, apply less product than you think necessary (2-3 drops) and allow it to fully absorb into your skin before applying the next one.
