How Long Does It Take To See Results From Skincare Products?

How Long Does It Take To See Results From Skincare Products?

Longer than you think!

Have you ever purchased a new skincare product and couldn’t wait to open it because you were dying to see how it would change your skin? Or applied one of your sheet masks and expected to see the most amazing results in 20 minutes flat? Hate to break to you but that’s not how skincare works. You can only achieve long-lasting results by realizing that skincare is all about consistency. But, that begs the question “how long does it take to see results from skincare products?” Here’s a quick guide on what to expect.

🌱  WHEN TO EXPECT RESULTS

CLEANSER

Cleansers are meant to rid the skin of unwanted bacteria that could potentially cause acne and breakouts.

 

When it comes to results, if you weren’t cleansing properly before, you should start seeing results immediately. The skin will begin to appear healthier, smoother, and clearer in just a few days.

TONER

The main goal of your toner should be to balance the skin’s pH levels and provide a lightweight layer of hydration.

 

The timeline for results can vary. This is because there are a number of different types of toners — from exfoliating, pore-refining, and basic hydration. But, generally, toners can provide an instant boost of hydration. If you’re looking to soothe redness or target breakouts though, they’ll need at least 2 to 4 weeks to show any positive effects.

EXFOLIATOR

We’re talking about your acids whether you’re using AHAs, BHAs, or PHAs — these functional ingredients are meant to boost your skin’s cell turnover to reveal brighter, smoother, more luminous skin.

 

This is where things get a bit tricky! Exfoliants can get to work overnight taking your skin from rough and dull to smooth and supple. But, to really reap the long term benefits —including decreased breakouts, smoother texture, minimized pore size — you’ll want to give it at least 7-14 days.

SERUM

We love a good serum! This is the step where you typically target your skin concerns either fading hyperpigmentation, smoothing fine lines, fighting acne, or boosting firmness.

 

Ironically, this step takes the longest to see results.

🗹 ACNE PRODUCTS

If fighting acne is your goal, you’ll need to be in it for the long haul. It takes at least 4 to 6 weeks to see results.

 

🗹 VITAMIN C

All about brightening your skin? Your vitamin C serum needs AT LEAST 6 to 12 weeks to even your skin tone and texture.  

 

🗹 RETINOL

Looking to achieve smoother, firmer, more youthful skin? Buckle in as it can take 2 to 3 months of consistent use to see any major changes. But, the results are worth the wait!

MOISTURIZER

When in doubt, NEVER skip your moisturizer! Hydrating your skin is one of the most important parts of your routine. It’ll help to fortify your skin’s moisture barrier and keep it as healthy as possible.

 

Moisturizers can give you an overnight result leaving you with healthier, smoother skin than the day before. But, if you’re using a specific one geared towards anti-aging you’ll want to give it some extra time to show you those results. We’d suggest trying it out for at least four weeks before moving onto another one!

Our favorite cleanser is the Rice Cleansing Sorbet. Unlike traditional foam or gel cleansers, this oil-based balm gently cleanses and nourishes the skin at the same time. You’ll be left with incredibly smooth, hydrated skin that is ready for the rest of your routine. Plus, it won’t waste your time — the formula melts within seconds of contact with your skin quickly getting rid of impurities without the hassle.

On lazy mornings, we like to reach for a toner like the Bitter Green Essence Toner as it has the balancing power of a toner and the potency of the essence so you’re getting the functionality of two products in one easy step. We love that this purifying toner helps to balance oil production, soothe inflammation, and provide the skin with max hydration. It’s everything you need for clear, radiant skin.

When it comes to moisturizers we love reaching for those that are lightweight and grease-free but pack a punch of moisturizing power. The Salmon Cream is one of our holy grails as it provides the nourishment your skin needs while infusing it with anti-aging must-haves like salmon caviar, firming adenosine, and collagen-boosting peptides. It’s more than just an everyday moisturizer — it’s the key to healthy, youthful skin.

Pro tip: Don’t forget to follow up with SPF! It is essential that you protect your skin so no matter how tired you are be sure to add a decent layer of sunscreen at the end of your routine.

💛It needs to be said again — skincare shouldn’t be complicated. The easier your routine is the more likely you are to stick to it. So, don’t make things hard on yourself and create a routine that works for you.

LONG STORY SHORT

It may seem a bit complicated but when it boils down to it skincare is all about long-term consistency. If you really want to reap benefits, the general rule of thumb is to give each product a solid 4 to 6 weeks before making up your mind! You got this!
