Product Basics
Complete SeneGence Skincare Routine
Choose the Core 4 for skin type, then build a clear morning and evening rhythm with preparation, one targeted treatment, moisture, and protection.
card 01
Start with the Core 4

for the marketer
A complete routine needs a steady center. The Core 4 gives morning and night the same dependable foundation.
for the professional
The Core 4 is 3-in-1 Cleanser, DayTime Moisturizer, Evening Moisturizer, and EyeCreme. Choose the cleanser and moisturizers for skin type; keep the eye step consistent. This is the daily foundation before optional essences, serums, masks, or color enter the plan.
for the skintellectual
The architecture follows the day's rhythm. Cleansing removes what would interfere with even contact. The daytime seal supports comfort under protection and color. The evening seal gives the routine a richer overnight finish. The eye step serves a zone with different texture and lipid needs. Four roles make the routine complete without making it crowded.
card 02
Choose the right skin-type system

for the marketer
Fit comes before extras. Choose the system that matches how skin behaves, then add only what the concern needs.
for the professional
Use the Dry system for persistent tightness and low oil; Normal to Dry for comfortable skin that needs more reserve; Normal to Oily for visible T-zone shine or combination behavior; and the Microbiome system for sensitive or problem-prone skin. Keep cleanser and moisturizers in the same skin-type lane.
for the skintellectual
The branch is about surface behavior, not a permanent label. A Normal to Oily 3-in-1 Cleanser supports a combination or oil-prone routine without turning every step harsh. A microbiome-focused branch prioritizes barrier comfort and balance. Recheck the fit when climate, season, health, or life stage changes how skin feels; the routine can stay structured while the variant changes.

Build the morning routine

for the marketer
Morning has one mission: prepare, hydrate, target, moisturize, protect. Then color can perform on top.
for the professional
Build morning in this order:
The sequence moves from light preparation to treatment, then moisture and protection.
for the skintellectual
Morning order balances penetration with surface defense. The light hydration layer prepares the stratum corneum; the treatment step gets direct contact; moisturizer slows water loss; labeled sun protection keeps its own directions and tested use; complexion layers finish the visible surface. The Mechanical Shield is the daytime color architecture, not another name for the hydration step.
card 04
Build the evening routine

for the marketer
Evening resets the surface, places the treatment, and seals comfort in for the night.
for the professional
Remove long-wear color first, then cleanse. Apply eye care, Climate Control, and the treatment chosen for the evening. If facial Nangai Oil is part of the plan, place it after treatments and before moisturizer. Finish with the matching Evening Moisturizer; add an optional overnight finish only when its directions call for it.
for the skintellectual
Evening care removes daytime films before rebuilding hydration and treatment contact. Nangai Oil sits between treatment and moisturizer because it adds a lipid-support layer without replacing the final cream. The richer finish then slows overnight water loss. Retinoid routines also keep their labeled frequency, buffering, and morning sun-protection instructions; more steps are not automatically more effective.
card 05
Add one treatment with a purpose

for the marketer
The routine becomes personal at treatment. Choose one concern, then choose the formula that earns that spot.
for the professional
Hydration, visible brightness, the look of uneven tone, fine-line care, or barrier comfort each call for a different treatment plan. Start with one targeted step and use it consistently before stacking another. The Triple Cell Renewal Trio has its own current order; learn it in [How to Layer the Trio](/learn/ingredients-clinicals/the-factor-stack).
for the skintellectual
A treatment slot is a decision, not an inventory. Keep finished-product directions, ingredient tolerability, day-versus-night use, and evidence scope attached to the chosen formula. Introducing one change at a time also makes response easier to read. [Why Skincare Application Order Matters](/learn/product-basics/molecular-weight-layering) explains the Dalton logic; here the focus is the practical morning-and-evening choice.
card 06
One technology connects the routine

for the marketer
SenePlex+ is the connective technology across virtually every skincare formula, giving the routine one shared point of view.
for the professional
That connection is why cleanser, treatment, and moisture layers feel like one system instead of unrelated steps. Each formula keeps its own job, while the shared technology carries the SeneGence skin-quality philosophy across the routine. Original LipSense remains a deliberate formula exception with its own color-and-gloss architecture.
for the skintellectual
Eight-week clinical evaluation and consumer agreement support visible skin quality. [See the skin-quality evidence](/evidence/seneplex-regimen-skin-quality-week-8).

Your complete routine, at a glance
for the marketer
Morning prepares and protects. Evening removes, treats, and restores. Consistency turns the two into one routine.
for the professional
Use this final check:
- AM JOB
- prepare → treat → moisturize → protect
- PM JOB
- remove → cleanse → treat → moisturize
- FIT
- cleanser and moisturizers match skin type
- FOCUS
- one targeted treatment starts the plan
- ORDER
- lighter contact before the richer seal
Keep the architecture; adjust the variant and treatment as skin changes.
for the skintellectual
A complete routine is complete because every necessary job has an owner, not because every bottle is present. The Core 4 supplies daily continuity. Preparation and treatment personalize the middle. Protection closes the morning; richer moisture closes the evening. Review the sequence in [Why Skincare Application Order Matters](/learn/product-basics/molecular-weight-layering), then refine one branch at a time.
