Layering Oils and Creams Correctly

Hey, it's Bob, Today’s tip is about layering—the right way to combine oils, serums, and creams so your skin gets the most benefit.

A simple rule: apply from **thinnest to thickest**. After cleansing with Island Rx, if you’re using a treatment oil like Reflex ProBiome Serum, apply it first to slightly damp skin. This allows the smaller, lighter oil molecules to penetrate more deeply. Give it a minute to absorb.

Next, apply a lotion or cream like Luminos on top. The Agave Aloe Vera and richer oils lock in the treatment while adding their own hydration and anti-aging benefits. Around the eye area, Eye Butter goes on last, acting as both treatment and a gentle occlusive to protect that delicate tissue.

On the body, you can do something similar: Nextra Body first as a collagen-supporting base, Tortuga second as your heavy-duty moisture and barrier shield—especially at night or in very dry environments.

Layering this way makes each product more effective and prevents pilling or that heavy, suffocated feeling.

Think like a chef building flavors—each layer in the right order creates a better result.
