The 4-Step Routine Your Skin Actually Needs

More steps don't equal better skin. In fact, over-cleansing and over-exfoliating are two of the most common causes of irritation we hear about. A simple, consistent routine almost always outperforms a complicated one.

Step one: cleanse with a goat milk bar suited to your skin type. Step two: while skin is still damp, apply a hydrating layer. Step three: seal with a cream or oil. Step four (mornings): protect with SPF.

That's it. Adjust frequency to your skin's needs and let consistency do the heavy lifting.
