Apply face serum before moisturiser. After cleansing, use your serum, follow with moisturiser, and finish with sunscreen in the morning. If you use a prescribed skin treatment, follow your clinician's instructions about where it belongs in your routine.
The order is easy to remember: cleanse, serum, moisturise, protect. Berrg's two products fit into the middle of that routine—a 30 ml face serum followed by a 50 g gel moisturiser.
What does each step do?
A serum is a separate formula that you choose for a particular cosmetic goal and texture. A moisturiser adds a moisturising step. Choosing a serum does not remove the need to consider hydration and daytime sun protection.
| Step | Berrg product | How to use it |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Serum | Kashmiri Saffron & Ashwagandha Face Serum | Apply 2–3 drops to clean, dry skin, following the directions on the label. |
| 2. Moisturiser | Saffron & Ashwagandha Gel Moisturiser | Gently apply a small amount to the face and neck. |
A simple morning routine
- Cleanse gently and pat your face dry.
- Apply the serum as directed on its packaging, avoiding the eye area.
- Follow with moisturiser.
- Use a suitable sunscreen. The American Academy of Dermatology recommends broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher, alongside other sun-protection measures.
A simple evening routine
Cleanse, then apply serum and moisturiser as directed. Introduce a new product gradually instead of adding several unfamiliar formulas on the same evening. More products do not automatically make a routine more effective.
How long should you wait between serum and moisturiser?
Follow any waiting time specified on your product labels. Otherwise, let the serum settle enough to spread moisturiser comfortably. There is no Berrg-specific clinical test on this page establishing an exact number of minutes. If products pill, try a smaller amount and give each layer a little more time to settle.
Starting a new routine
Test new products before regular use and introduce one at a time so you can identify a formula that does not suit your skin. Stop using a product that causes irritation. Read the complete ingredient list on the packaging if you have known sensitivities, and seek professional advice if you are managing a skin condition.
