How to Combine Your Serum With Other Products in a Simple Skincare Routine

If you’re using a face serum (or thinking about it), you’ve already taken a big step forward.

But what about everything else?

  • When do you apply your serum?

  • Should you use a moisturizer too?

  • What if you’re using sunscreen?

Let’s simplify everything.
Here’s how to combine your serum with other products for a routine that’s powerful—but still easy.

⏱️ Keep It Simple: The 3-Step Rule

A great skincare routine for men doesn’t have to be complicated.
Stick to these three core steps:

1. Cleanse

Wash your face with a gentle, pH-balanced cleanser to remove dirt, oil, and sweat.

🧼 Do this morning and night.

2. Treat (Serum)

Apply your serum directly to clean skin. This step delivers active ingredients that target your skin concerns—like breakouts, oil, and redness.

💡 Apply while your skin is slightly damp for better absorption.

3. Protect

Finish with a lightweight moisturizer and (in the morning) sunscreen to seal in hydration and protect your skin barrier.
