Welcome to Skincare School the podcast, your ultimate skincare study guide. Join Adore Beauty’s Senior Editor Amy Clark and Dr. Michelle Wong from Lab Muffin Beauty Science as they take things right back to basics to make skin care simple and F-U-N!

What’s on this episode? We’re glad you asked…

How to Start a Skincare Routine

Now you know your skin type, let's get started on how to actually build a skincare routine from scratch. Michelle explains why cleanser, moisturiser and sunscreen are arguably the three most important products in any good skincare routine, and the best place to start your ~journey~ with skin care.

Plus, we bust some common myths in our Pop Quiz around whether double cleansing is necessary and if you really need day AND night moisturisers. And Amy takes us through the best-selling products for your skin type in our Best In Class segment.
