Using Too Much or Too Little Skincare Product? Here’s How to Apply for Optimal Results

Using Too Much or Too Little Skincare Product? Here’s How to Apply for Optimal Results

You already know that skincare application order matters, but details like how much product you use and where you apply it can make just as big of a difference. From extending application down the neck and chest to using the correct amount, these small steps play a major role in how effective your routine truly is.

When it comes to the amount of cleanser, serum, and moisturizer you use, the key is finding the sweet spot. Too little, and your skin never fully benefits from powerful active ingredients. Too much, and you risk wasting product and money.

Here’s exactly when, where, and how to use each Reflekt product so you can maximize your routine in minimal steps.


Reflekt 1 Daily Exfoliating Face Wash

When: ☼ and ☽

Where: Entire face, neck, and décolletage

How: Squeeze a quarter-sized dollop onto fingertips. Massage onto skin in a circular motion (avoiding your eye area) until the jojoba esters have melted. Rinse thoroughly and pat dry with a clean towel.

Reflekt 2 Collagen Boost Vitamin C Brightening Serum

When: ☼ and ☽

Where: Entire face, neck, and décolletage

How: Pump a dime-sized amount onto fingertips and press onto skin for a fast-absorbing brightness boost courtesy of high-quality vitamin C.

Reflekt 3 Power Peptide Sculpting Face Cream

When: ☼ and ☽

Where: Entire face, neck, and décolletage

How: Scoop a nickel-sized amount onto fingertips and pat onto skin (don’t pull) for an intensely firmed and replenished complexion.

Reflekt 4 Smoothing Squalane Eye & Lip Treatment Cream

When: ☼ and ☽

Where: Around your eyes and lips

How: Gently dab a pea-sized amount onto the entire eye area with your ring finger — from the inner to the outer corners, then up toward your lids and brow bones. Apply excess product around (not on) the lips.

Restorative Lip Balm

When: As needed

Where: On the lips

How: Apply generously to lips throughout the day and before bedtime as needed for instant and long-lasting hydration.
