Yes, it’s a good idea! Your daytime moisturizer should have that sunscreen we talked about. Its main job is to protect you. Your nighttime moisturizer is different. At night, your skin works to repair itself. A good night cream is richer and gives your skin the extra nutrients and hydration it needs to do that repair work. Think of it as active recovery while you sleep.

Washing twice daily is the essential first step that makes everything else work. Clean skin is like a clean canvas—it allows your toner, serum, moisturizer, and treatments to soak in properly and do their job. If you apply these great products on dirty skin, they can’t work as well. Think of it as the non-negotiable foundation of your entire skincare strategy. It’s a simple habit that maximizes the results from all your other products.

First, unfollow accounts that constantly make you feel you need to buy something. Next, set a “one in, one out” rule. If you bring in a new product, finish or remove an old one. Most importantly, celebrate the products you already have and love! Notice how your skin feels with your steady routine. Saving money and seeing your skin become calm and happy is more rewarding than the temporary thrill of a new purchase.
