Imagine a soft, squishy sponge, not unlike your favourite comfy pillow. Except this one’s for your face.

Layering skincare can be incredibly confusing because most people’s routines start with 3, 4 or 5 products, but we’ve seen people who use as many as 10 products for their morning routine, and a whole different set for PM. Golly!
