Think of it in fashion terms. Some women prefer the ease and predictable style of a simple classic “uniform” : a dress and low heels or pants and a jacket, and they’re done.

The right order for product application helps the layering process produce optimum benefits.
For day, the order goes like this:
- cleanser
- exfoliator (once or twice a week unless your cleanser has built-in exfoliating ingredients like glycolic acid)
- toner serums or gels (although alcohol-based toners are too drying for most mature skin)
- eye cream
- redness reliever or moisturizer
- sunscreen (not necessary if your moisturizer has an SPF of 30 or more and you’re working indoors)
- makeup primer (if you use one)
- foundation
For night, the order is:
- cleanser
- Retin-A or a prescription skin-care serum (if you use one)
- eye cream
- night cream/moisturizer without SPF (if this is a dual day/night moisturizer)

Agreed. I never thought I was vain until I had a mastectomy at age 39. I was devastated and told the doc I wanted to wake up with implants. Now at age 60, I am lopsided and wondering if I was just avoiding the inevitable. You get what you get and you
