A Skincare Routine for Your Cycle

Synced Skin serums and balms with a yellow flower on a sunlit stone ledge

Your cycle moves through four phases. Synced Skin brings those chapters into a familiar skincare ritual: a jojoba-based serum first, then a matching tallow balm.

Two pairings for four phases

After your period and around ovulation, use Follicular / Ovulatory. Its serum and balm share a botanical blend of clary sage, lemon and lemongrass. After ovulation and through your period, move to Luteal / Menstrual, with frankincense, spearmint and eucalyptus.

Our four-phase guide shows the rhythm behind the collection, with the pairing for each chapter.

Keep the order simple

Apply a few drops of serum to clean, damp skin. Follow with a small amount of the matching balm. The two products have different textures, but the order stays the same with either pairing. See our two-step application guide for a closer look.

Find your comfortable finish

Begin with a light layer. Add a little more balm where you prefer a richer finish. The Follicular / Ovulatory Balm and Luteal / Menstrual Balm share the same place in the ritual, with different botanical blends.

Read each product’s full ingredient list and label directions before use. Patch test new skincare, especially if you’re sensitive to fragrance.

Begin with the complete kit

The Starter Kit includes both serums and both balms, so you have both pairings ready. Choose Mini or Full Size, then meet the formulas in our pairing guide.
