Quick answer
Apply the Daily Green Juice Antioxidant Super Serum first, let it absorb, then follow with the Everyday Radiance Vitamin C Lightweight Moisturizer. This order lets the thinner antioxidant serum reach the skin before the moisturizer seals in hydration.
Why the serum goes first
Serums are formulated to deliver concentrated ingredients and are typically thinner than moisturizers. Applying the green juice serum first gives its antioxidant-rich blend—including goji peptidoglycans, ergothioneine mushroom complex, and green tea oil—a chance to absorb before the moisturizer creates a barrier. The vitamin C moisturizer then adds hydration and helps lock in what you have already applied.
If you reverse the order, the moisturizer can interfere with the serum's absorption, and you may be more likely to experience pilling or a less even finish.
When to adjust for your skin
If your skin is very dry or reactive, start with the serum every other day and build up to daily use. If you notice stinging or redness, reduce frequency or apply the moisturizer first as a buffer—though this may slightly reduce the serum's immediate effect. Always patch test new products, especially if you use other active ingredients like retinoids or exfoliating acids.
Step-by-step layering routine
- Start with clean skin: Cleanse gently and pat dry. Apply to slightly damp skin if your skin tends to feel tight. Avoid harsh scrubs or cleansing brushes before layering—they can irritate skin and make active ingredients sting.
- Apply the antioxidant serum: Dispense 2–3 drops of Daily Green Juice Antioxidant Super Serum and press gently over face and neck. Wait 30–60 seconds until it feels mostly absorbed. Don't rub vigorously; pressing helps avoid tugging and ensures even coverage.
- Follow with the moisturizer: Smooth a pea-sized amount of Everyday Radiance Vitamin C Lightweight Moisturizer over the serum, using upward strokes. If you see white flakes or pilling, you likely applied too much or didn't let the serum dry enough—use less product next time.
- Finish with sunscreen in the morning: If it's your AM routine, apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen as the final step. Vitamin C and antioxidants work best when paired with sun protection—don't skip it.
