Routines

The perfect order for your facial care

The MERME Guide helps you get the most out of your skincare routine. As a general rule: always apply the lightest product first and then work your way up to the richest.

Are two complete routines too much for you? Then pay particular attention to your evening routine, because your skin works at full speed to regenerate itself at night. This is when your products can be absorbed best.

General morning routine

In the morning, your skin is usually free of dirt or makeup that needs removing. Therefore, you can start directly with your favorite cleansing product, such as a gel or foam . Rinse it off with warm water to create a clean base for your subsequent routine.

This is a crucial step in balancing your skin's pH level – and for more effective absorption of subsequent products. MERME's Facial Antioxidant Mist can be sprayed directly onto the skin or onto a cotton pad to remove any residue.

The high concentration of active ingredients in a serum is best absorbed by the skin at this time. Apply the serum, such as the MERME Facial Hydration Serum made with pure hyaluronic acid, and wait 15 minutes until it is absorbed.

Eye care products should be applied before moisturizer for maximum effectiveness. MERME's Advanced Eye Therapy is a rich, roll-on oil that is perfect for caring for this delicate area.

Now apply your facial oil, like one of our elixirs (Beauty, Balancing, or Healing), to lock in the previous skincare products. You can also apply a cream now.

A light sunscreen should be the last product you apply before putting on your makeup.

Finally, apply your makeup as usual.

General evening routine

For a thorough double cleanse, start with a makeup remover or an oil-based cleanser like MERME's Facial Cleansing Oil . It's perfect for gently removing dirt and makeup (even waterproof mascara!). Follow with a cleansing foam or gel to remove any remaining residue.

This is a crucial step in balancing your skin's pH level – and for more effective absorption of subsequent products. MERME's Facial Antioxidant Mist can be sprayed directly onto the skin or onto a cotton pad to remove any residue from cleanser or makeup.

We recommend using a mask or scrub once or twice a week, depending on how clogged your pores are. Try our Deep Clean Facial Mask for a gentle, deep cleanse and to remove dead skin cells.

Treatments, just like masks, don't need to be applied every day, but should always be used in this order for optimal results. These can be partial treatments or L-ascorbic acid products like MERME's Facial Brightening Vitamin-C Powder . When using our vitamin C powder, wait 20 minutes before applying your serum for maximum results. You can also apply the vitamin C powder in the morning to protect your skin from free radicals caused by pollution throughout the day.

The high concentration of active ingredients in a serum is best absorbed by the skin at this time. Apply the serum, such as the MERME Facial Hydration Serum made with pure hyaluronic acid, and wait 15 minutes until it is absorbed. While you sleep, it draws moisture from the air into your skin to intensely hydrate and smooth it overnight.

Eye care products should be applied before moisturizer for maximum effectiveness. MERME's Advanced Eye Therapy is a rich, roll-on oil that is perfect for caring for this delicate area.

Now apply your facial oil, such as one of our elixirs ( Beauty , Balancing , or Healing ), to lock in the previous skincare products. You can also apply a cream now. If you're using one of our elixirs with a skin booster, we recommend applying it in the evening.
