Whether you're a skincare beginner or an advanced enthusiast, Rodial’s guide to crafting the perfect morning routine will help you streamline your steps for maximum results. Discover how to build a daily ritual that cleanses, treats, hydrates, and protects—tailored to your skill level and skin goals.

Tailor Your Routine by Experience

Beginner Routine: Start with the essentials—cleanse, exfoliate, and SPF moisturiser. This foundation sets the tone for healthy, glowing skin.

Intermediate Routine: Level up with masks and serums added between cleansing and moisturizing. Try brightening treatments or lightweight essences to deepen the glow.

Advanced Routine: Everything the previous steps include, plus eye care and targeted serums. This layered structure ensures each product optimally delivers its benefits.

The Six-Step Daytime Routine

  1. Cleanse
    Remove impurities and prep skin with a gentle cleanser like the Vit C Brightening Cleanser—rich with vitamin C and fruit acids for a vibrant, smooth base.

  2. Exfoliate / Tone
    Use BHA or AHA treatments—like Vit C Brightening Cleansing Pads—to sweep away dead skin and reveal a brighter, fresh complexion.

  3. Mask
    Treat your skin with a sheet mask like the Pink Diamond Instant Lifting Face Mask to hydrate, uplift, and fine-tune your texture.

  4. Eye Cream
    Maintain delicate under-eye area using targeted care such as the Dragon’s Blood Eye Gel, infused with hyaluronic acid and brightening botanicals.

  5. Steam Your Serum
    Lock in active ingredients with a tailored serum. Try the Bee Venom Super Serum, powered by peptide technology and ethically sourced bee venom to visibly firm, smooth fine lines, and deeply hydrate for a plump, youthful glow.

  6. Moisturize & SPF
    Finish with a hydrating, skin-barrier sealing formula like the Dragon’s Blood Hyaluronic Moisturiser SPF 15. On high-sun days, layer your usual moisturizer with the SPF 50 Drops for enhanced protection.
