Your Skin Routine, Perfected with Intoxicated Serums

A great skincare routine is more than just a few products on your shelf; it's a daily ritual that keeps your skin healthy, radiant, and resilient. When your routine is consistent and thoughtfully structured, you're giving your skin the care it truly needs, helping to prevent dryness, irritation, and the appearance of fine lines.

At Intoxicated Cosmetics, our serums are designed to work together to support your skin’s overall health. While we recommend incorporting all three serums, Snake, Snail, and Bee, into your routine over time, it is totally normal to wonder which to try first. That is where our Perfect Serum Quiz comes in, a fun, interactive way to determine which serum might be the best starting point for your skin type and goals. But remember: the quiz is just a guide, and following a consistent routine is equally important for long-term results.

Step 1: Cleanse

Every effective routine starts with a clean canvas. The Clean Queen Glycolic Cleanser is a luxurious glycolic-based formula that removes pore-clogging debris, balances your skin’s pH, and brightens your complexion, all without stripping moisture. Use it morning and night to prep your skin for the serums that follow. 

Step 2: Exfoliate (1-3x per week):

Exfoliation is key to revealing smooth, radiant skin and allowing your serum to penetrate deeply. 

• Start with the Power Wash Peel Pads for gentle exfoliation. 

• When you are ready for deeper treatment, step up to the Power Correct Peel Pads, infused with six acids and niacinamide to resurface, correct tone, and boost collagen 

Pro Tip: If you are new to exfoliating, introduce Peel Pads gradually; your skin will thank you. 

Step 3: Start with E.C.Dysis Serum

For a radiant, even-toned base, apply E.C.Dysis Serum first. This potent antioxidant formula: 

• Brightens complexion & reduces hyperpigmentation with 15% Vitamin C.

• Targets fine lines & wrinkles with SYN-AKE.

• Supports firmness & hydration with Hydraprotectol & Hyaluronic Acid.

E.C.Dysis preps your skin, enhancing the effectiveness of your other serums while giving your skin a glowing, youthful appearance. 

Step 4: Apply Your Serum or Serums 

All three Intoxicated Cosmetics Serums offer unique benefits: 

• Snake Serum: anti-aging powerhouse for smoothing fine lines & strengthening the skin barrier. 

• Snail Serum: deep hydration & regeneration for plump, luminous skin. 

• Bee Serum: clarifying, oil-controlling, & anti-aging benefits for combination or oily skin. 

If you are trying to decide which serum to start with, the Perfect Serum Quiz (at the end of this blog) can help guide your choice. No matter what you pick first, using a serum consistently is the key to seeing real results. 

Step 5: Targeted Eye Care

The delicate eye area often needs extra attention. Snake Eyes Eye Serum targets fine lines, dark circles, puffiness, and sagging skin with clinical peptides and a plant-based retinol alternative, all without irritation.

Step 6: Moisturize

Lock in your serum’s benefits with Antidote Moisturizer. This luxurious finishing touch provides long-lasting hydration, boosts collagen, smooths fine lines, and keeps your skin glowing all day. 

Why the Routine Matters

Skincare is most effective when it's consistent and complete. Cleansing, exfoliating, applying a Vitamin C, using target serums, caring for your eyes, and moisturizing. These steps work together to transform your skin over time. While choosing the right serum can enhance results, the routine itself is what builds lasting healthy skin.
