Common questions about night gels for dry and dehydrated skin
As a simple rule, go from the thinnest, most watery products to the thicker, creamier ones. After cleansing, you can apply any water-based serums first, such as a hydrating serum or, on separate nights, a serum with gentle active ingredients if your skin tolerates them. Once those have absorbed slightly, apply your night gel over your whole face and neck. If you need extra richness on certain areas, finish with a small amount of cream or oil just on those spots. It is usually better not to stack many strong actives in one evening; for example, avoid using an exfoliating acid, a strong retinoid, and a new night gel all on the same night if your skin is already dry or sensitive.
