It is so important to be familiar with MK’s order of application. I have heard many variations on when to apply what. This is directly from InTouch. It used to be on our PWS’s as well, but I don’t see it there anymore:

Order of Application

Here is a handy application guide for your customers’ day and night skin care routines. More than likely, they will not use all of these products. Simply identify the products they do use and instruct them to apply them in the following order. Oil-Free Eye Makeup Remover TimeWise® 3-In-1 Cleanser or TimeWise® 3-In-1 Cleansing Bar or TimeWise® Microdermabrasion Set* Step 1: Refine and Step 2: Replenish Acne Treatment† Products TimeWise® Even Complexion Essence TimeWise® Day Solution Sunscreen SPF 25† Mary Kay® SPF 30† Sunscreen TimeWise® Night Solution TimeWise® Age-Fighting Moisturizer or TimeWise® Age-Fighting Moisturizer Sunscreen SPF 15† Additional Moisturizers (Intense Moisturizing Cream, Oil-Free Hydrating Gel or Advanced Moisture Renewal® Treatment Cream) Oil Mattifier Satin Lips® (mask and balm) TimeWise® Targeted-Action™ Eye Revitalizer or Indulge™ Soothing Eye Gel TimeWise® Firming Eye Cream or TimeWise® Age-Fighting Eye Cream TimeWise® Targeted-Action™ Line Reducer Concealer Foundation MK Signature™ Eye Primer TimeWise® Age-Fighting Lip Primer MK Signature™ Facial Highlighting Pen Powder Color Cosmetics *Use day or night, two or three times per week. Do not follow with acne treatment products. †Over-the-counter drug product

Keep in mind that acne treatment products should be used as close to the skin as possible, therefore, it is best applied immediately after cleansing. When you use Microdermabrasion, acne treatment products should not be applied as the skin will be tender and sensitive to the benzoyl peroxide and salicylic acid.
