Is a 10-step routine really necessary?

A lot of skincare routines online have 8–10 products, but in reality most people don’t need that many steps.

A simple routine like this often works well:

Morning

• Cleanser

• Moisturizer

• Sunscreen

Night

• Cleanser

• Treatment serum

• Moisturizer

Sometimes adding too many products can actually irritate the skin rather than improve it.
