Evening Skincare Rituals
Between morning and evening, the main difference in skincare rituals are:
- Makeup removal — cleansing oils, cleansing balms or micellar water
- Exfoliation — removing traces of debris and dead skin cells
- More intense hydration & moisturising before going to sleep
- No sunscreen needed after sunset
The number of steps in your routine depends on your skin type, skin concerns, product formulations, season, climate, and personal preference. In general, oily skin types may want to skip more steps or use lighter formulations.
Below are our recommendations for makeup removers, exfoliants/scrubs, masks and intensive moisturisers. For cleansers, toners, essences and serums, see our day recommendations for dry/dehydrated skin & oily skin.
