Skin Cycling may be new to Gen Z influencers and #skintok content creators, but it’s actually a well-known (and evidence-based) treatment protocol in dermatology.
Long before it was a trending hashtag, those in the skincare business have seen the benefits of using products strategically and creating a well-calculated regime that targets specific skin concerns without damaging the epidermal barrier or causing irritation.
By now, you’ve probably got a good grasp of the basics for an effective, everyday skincare regime, which should include a cleanser, moisturiser, and SPF.
It’s incorporating exfoliants and serums with active ingredients that makes things a bit tricky.
If you find yourself thinking, “If only there were a simple formula I could follow” then Skin Cycling is the answer you’ve been looking for.
Skin Cycling is a four-night skincare regime that you essentially cycle through; exfoliating on night one, applying retinoids on night two, and focusing on hydration and barrier repair on nights three and four, making the second half of the cycle a ‘recovery’ period for your skin.
The result? You should feel less sensitivity, reduced irritation and redness, as well as the “achievement of a filter-like complexion”, according to those who make a living by turning the camera on themselves.
It is worth noting though, that the proof is in the…patience.
Skin Cycling isn’t something you try for a week or two and then ditch in favour of whatever new skincare trend catches your eye mid-scroll.
The truth is, results won’t show immediately but if you trust the process, stick to it consistently and don’t skip a day, you’ll see the benefits from about week eight or 12.
Some of the benefits you can expect from Skin Cycling include pores appearing smaller, skin tone evening out and a level-up in both your radiance and glow.
