There’s a specific kind of frustration that comes with skincare.
You buy the serum everyone’s talking about. You add the moisturiser. You switch up your toner. And still, your skin isn’t where you want it to be.
The problem usually isn’t the products. It’s the system. The wrong order. The missing step. Two products that cancel each other out without you knowing.
Ife’s Routine removes all of that. You’re getting 6 products and the exact sequence to use them, morning and night.
This is the routine that works, because it’s the one she actually uses.

FAQs
I already own some of these products. Can I buy them individually?
Absolutely. Every product in this set is available individually on the site. The set is just the easiest way to get everything at once.
How quickly will I see results?
Most people notice a difference in skin texture and hydration within 6 weeks. For brightness and even tone, give it 8-12 weeks of consistent use.
Is this safe for darker skin tones?
Yes, and it was formulated with darker skin tones in mind. The azelaic acid and niacinamide are both well-tolerated by melanin-rich skin and are known for fading hyperpigmentation without causing further discolouration.
Will this routine cause purging or breakouts?
This routine is not heavily active-based, so purging is unlikely. The azelaic acid may cause slight sensitivity in the first week for very reactive skin. If that happens, reduce use to once a week and increase frequency gradually.
