THE ONLY SCIENCE-BACKED SKINCARE ROUTINE YOU NEED (4 STEPS)

Skincare doesn’t need to be complicated to work. In this video, I’m breaking down a simple, science-backed 4-step routine that covers 95% of what your skin actually needs without clutter, hype, or 10-step confusion.

✅ Step 1: Cleanser (remove oil, sunscreen, makeup, pollution)
✅ Step 2: Serum (pick actives based on your goal)
✅ Step 3: Moisturizer (barrier support = better results, less irritation)
✅ Step 4: Sunscreen (daily, SPF50, and broad-spectrum)

If you master these four consistently, everything else is optional.

  1. Hi doc. I use like this: cleanser then azaelic acid then moisture then sunscreen.
    I plan to add retinoid into my routine. I saw a bunch of your vedios but I couldn’t figure out how to incorporate retinoids into this routine. Can you help me with that?
    Thank you.

  2. Im an ethiopian teenager n i hv soo much discoloration over my face n body n also I’m more of a light skin but the years of sun we het have left me looking like im dark skin with discoloration any solutions for that(pls reply)

  3. Finally a routine that skips the 12-step nonsense and explains the actual reasoning behind each product. Appreciate that you mentioned when things like retinoids are worth it versus overhyped.
