Epiduo, hada labo and moisturizer order

In what order should i be using these three: Epiduo (1% adapalene & 2.5 BP), Hada Labo hydrating Lotion, and some cream moisturizer? Im on my second week of epiduo. Thanks! (I’m a Southeast asian, if that helps)

Epiduo is a spot treatment i thought. So this you can use it after moisturizer or before. It depends on your skin. Sometimes acne spot treatment can make your skin dry, so put it on before moisturizer step. For hadalabo lotion, this is moisturizer too. It depends on your skin too. This maybe light for your skin, cream type maybe thick and heavy for your skin. I don't know which do you like, you must try them first to decide which one more suitable for your skin and make it comfortable.

If epiduo is too drying for you, use the hydrating moisturizer first, then epiduo and lock the moisture in with the cream based moisturizer. if it’s not too drying, then use from thinnest to thickest.

So it’s okay to put hyaluronic acid toner before epiduo?

It really depends on how you tolerate the irritation but for starters, you can cleanse, tone (if you really want to), moisturize then let it fully dry. Then you can apply epiduo. I would assume that you know that epiduo is not a spot treatment. Goodluck!

Since hada labo lotion is toner like consistency but is considered as moisturizer, I use it before Adapalene (BP in my case), then moisturizer in cream consistency.
