How do I introduce silk skincare to my night-time routine?

Answer: Whether you’ve chosen a single Seresilk formulation or intend to embrace the full collection, begin with intention and gentle observation. Rather than a strict hierarchy, focus on understanding your skin’s current needs and the unique qualities of each product.

Identify your starting point

If you’re new to Seresilk and only wish to try one step, select the product that addresses your primary concern—be it a gentle cleanse, targeted exfoliation, nourishing serum or hydrating cream. If you already enjoy a complete routine, exercise patience with each step by applying carefully rather than rushing to layer everything at once.

Patch-test and observe

Before incorporating any new item into your regimen, apply a small amount to your jawline or inner forearm. Wait 24–48 hours to confirm there’s no sensitivity or redness. A brief acclimation period lets you appreciate both how silk-based actives feel and how your skin responds.

Listen to your skin

Should any redness or tightness arise, pause that product for a night or two. Often, slight adjustments (using with less frequency or applying a thinner layer of product) restores balance swiftly.

Ease in

If you’re experimenting with a single product, use it every second night at first. Note how your complexion reacts—hydration, texture or subtle firmness—then, after a week or two, increase to nightly application if no irritation occurs. You may consider introducing multiple products to your routine over one to two weeks.

Adjust to lifestyle factors

During travel or seasonal change, your skin may react differently. If you’ve introduced multiple serums and creams and suddenly experience dryness or congestion, revert to the single product that makes the most impact for you.

How do I maximise results using Seresilk?

Answer: No matter how many products you own, resist the temptation to start everything simultaneously. Prioritise skin comfort and integrity, and increase usage only once the previous step feels fully integrated.

Layer from thinnest to thickest

Always apply lighter, water-based formulations first (e.g., cleanser → serum), then follow with richer creams and oils. This ensures each ingredient is absorbed in sequence.

Avoid over-exfoliation

The Pure Silk Exfoliator is potent; limit its use to 2–3 times per week to maintain barrier health. If you notice sensitivity, simply reduce frequency rather than discontinuing entirely.

Gentle application techniques

Use a press-and-pat method rather than rubbing for Silk Night Serum and apply Silk Night Cream in upward, feather-light strokes to stimulate circulation without tugging on delicate areas.

Consistency and patience

Each silk-infused formula works beneath the surface—visible improvements often emerge after one to two skin cycles (4–8 weeks). Remain consistent in your evening routine to reveal the full transformative potential.

Protect your investment

Although Seresilk’s focus is an evening ritual, daytime SPF remains essential. Follow your morning cleanse with a broad-spectrum sun protection to safeguard the regenerated barrier and prevent premature ageing.
