Now that you have built your skincare foundation with [BALANCE], [RESCUE], [REPAIR], [HYDRATE] and [HYDRAPROTECT], you have done the most important step which is supporting your skin barrier. Part 1 here of Stress - Free and Effective Skincare for Mums.
Now, it is time to elevate your regime with targeted actives.
For busy Mums, skincare needs to be effective, gentle and easy to maintain. Rest assured our active products provide just that.
Why AMPERNA® Actives Are Different
Our active products are thoughtfully formulated with skin-supporting ingredients including our hero postbiotic Lactococcus Ferment Lysate. This soothing and hydrating ingredient ensures you can introduce actives into your routine in a way that feels calm and nourishing and works with your skin, not against it.
Below are the suggested products you can introduce into your regime once your skin feels comfortable and hydrated.
*Disclaimer: always test patch before applying any new products.
Actives should only be used as part of your nighttime skincare regime.
Introduce active products slowly and one product at a time until your skin adjusts.
Build gradually, increasing usage from once a week to 2-3 times per week, depending on your skins needs. Reach out to our skincare support team at any time for any questions at info@amperna.com

How To Keep It Simple
The goal is not to use everything at once. Slowly build to what your skin needs.
Keep your morning regime as is [BALANCE] → [RESCUE] → [HYDRATE] → [HYDRAPROTECT]
Here are a few suggested rotations you could implement for your night regime. Again, alternating between active nights and nights of barrier support only):
Night 1: [BALANCE] → [EXFOLIATE] → [HYDRATE]
Night 2: (rest) [BALANCE] → [RESCUE] → [HYDRATE]
Night 3: [BALANCE] → [SUPAGLOW] → [HYDRATE]
Night 4: [BALANCE] → [ALT or RX] (depending on your needs) → [HYDRATE]
Night 5: (rest) [BALANCE] → [RESCUE] → [HYDRATE]
Night 6: [BALANCE] → [EXFOLIATE] → [HYDRATE]
Night 7: (rest) [BALANCE] → [RESCUE] → [HYDRATE]
A Gentle Reminder
Skincare does not need to be complicated to be effective.
For mums, it is about small, consistent moments of care that support both your skin and your wellbeing.
With AMPERNA®, you can confidently introduce actives knowing they are designed to work with your skin not against it.
