Essence after serum? 😱

Hi! I'm new in this app and I make my morning routine which contains Tiam Snail & Azulene Water Essence and Tiam Vita B3 Source. All this time I thought that the correct order is Cleanser > Toner > Essence > Serum > Moisturizer > Sunscreen, but Picky says I should use B3 Source before Water Essence and now I'm unsure what should I do. Could it be because Water Essence is a little bit denser than B3 Source? I know it's important too, to use your products from lighter to thicker but I thought it's valid separately only within the serums, essences, toners etc. I'm sorry for my bad English and thank you all the help.

Where does it show that picky is saying the essence goes before serum? Because picky does not have that feature yet. Plus I also have both the Tiam Snail and azulene plus the Tiam B3 source. You correct in saying Essence first then the B3. Also correct thinnest to thickest first.

I will definitely go with the essence first but I can't see anything bad if you do it the other way. I by the way loooove this essence. 😍🥰

there is not one way or not a rules how to do it , but i would personally go from thinnest to thickest ! sometimes the terms essences etc can be very confusing bcs a lot lf brand seem to have a different understand wht an essence or serum is like ! the exception would be actives which usually come right after cleansing !

I know, right? Sometimes I'm so confused about serums and essences (as you can see) beacuse the brands jus couldn't decide which one is the specific product 😅 But I try to remember to not stick to the strict rules and use it based on consistence, thank you so much (・∀・)
