1. Cleanser

Use your morning face wash again to remove buildup.

2. Treatment Serum (Optional)

At night you can use serums targeting concerns:
• Vitamin C (brightening)

• Retinol (anti-ageing, use a few times a week only)

(Tip: Patch test stronger actives first and reduce frequency if your skin feels sensitive.)
