How to use
It says it in the name, you CAN rely on this guy. This has been formulated to serve as the foundation of your skincare routine. You can dial up your moisturizer needs during cold winter days by adding a layer of hydrating serum underneath.
MORNING & NIGHT
This formula is layer friendly for both your morning and evening routine. A little bit goes a long way - just one pump will do the trick!
WHAT STEP IN THE ROUTINE?
The formula can be used both morning and night. For minimalists, this can be your one and done. For layerists, use Mr. Reliable after your serum step and before your face oil/balm step.
Pssst...did you know?
Mr. Reliable 2.0 took over two years to formulate because the chemists got greedy and wanted all the actives. That's two years of chemists' blood, sweat, and tears that went into the bottle. (figuratively of course)
