Rock paper scissors, bacon lettuce tomato, cleanse tone moisturize. All of the best things come in threes. And if you’re not a skincare fanatic, three steps are all you really have to do to get cleansed and glowing skin.
Let’s dive into the cleanse-tone-moisturize trio and explore how you can make it work for you.
When your beauty routine is composed of just three products, each of them better be pulling their weight. Here’s what each of these heavy hitters is doing for your skin.
This one is obvious. Cleanser keeps your skin clean and fresh after your pretty face is exposed to dust, debris, sweat, makeup and the other detritus of daily life.
When you’re choosing a cleanser, you want to seek something gentle. You’ll be using this product somewhere between one and three times every day, so you don’t want anything that’s abrasive, drying or filled with harsh chemicals.
Since you use cleanser so often, it’s also a good idea to find one that’s packed with other good for your ingredients , like vitamin B to improve skin texture and chamomile to reduce inflammation.
Despite what you may hear from some folks, toner really is an essential part of your skincare routine.
Why? All of the pollutants and irritants that your skin comes across throughout the day throw off your skin’s pH balance. And when your skin’s pH is off, you tend to end up with either overly dry or overly oily skin.
Both of these phenomena are unpleasant on their own, but they become even more troublesome when you take into account the fact that they can contribute to wrinkles and/or acne.
Luckily, toner is here to save the day with it’s amazing pH balancing properties. It also primes your skin for any products you apply after toner, so that they work better. And it can help to remove the minerals and chlorine from the tap water you’re splashing on your skin.
It’s important to avoid toners that use alcohol, as they can excessively dry your skin. And just like with your cleanser, it’s a good idea to choose a toner that does double duty. That’s why we pack ours with galactomyces , a yeast that’s proven to help reduce the signs of aging and maintain a smooth complexion.
Maybe everyone’s favorite product, this feel-good cream is important for keeping your skin hydrated and supple. Not only does this contribute to your glow today, but it can help your skin retain elasticity and form fewer wrinkles tomorrow.
We’ve doubled the anti-aging effect in our moisturizer by formulating it with a peptide blend that improves skin’s firmness and a ceramide complex that locks in much-needed moisture.
For most people, once or twice a day (morning and evening) is completely sufficient for healthy skin.
Some folks prefer not to wash their face in the morning--or they're simply too bleary eyed before their morning coffee to do so--and choose to only tone and moisturize in the A.M.
If you’re someone who works out and gets a sweat on in the middle of the day, or if you’re visiting a sauna or weathering a particularly humid day, you may need to wash your face three times. You don’t want sweat seeping back into your pores and contributing to acne.
However, it’s best not to over wash your face since it can throw off your skin’s pH, so don’t wash unnecessarily.
Here’s a step-by-step guide to your daily three-part routine.
Step 1:Splash lukewarm water onto your face. (Don’t use hot water; it can inflame your skin and aggravate conditions like rosacea.)
Apply a small amount of cleanser to your fingertips and massage it in circles gentle on your skin. Rinse with cool water.
Pat--don’t rub--your face dry with a towel.
Step 2:After your skin is dry, spray toner liberally onto your face. (Or, apply it to a cotton pad and smooth it over your face.)
Step 3:After your toner has absorbed into your skin, massage your moisturizer onto your face. Take special care around the gentle eye area. You may want to use your delicate ring finger to apply moisturizer there.
During the day, always follow up with sunscreen!
Keeping your skin healthy is simpler than you thought. Just three workhorse ingredients and you’re ready to face the day.
Don’t forget to use ingredients that are both potent and natural, so you’re getting your money’s worth without adding toxins to your skin. At Wild Ice, we keep all of our products cold until the moment we ship them to you, so you get the most effective skincare without any harmful preservatives.

The four step process using Wild Ice products starts the day with positive vibes and smiles! Look good, feel good ... be nice ... use Wild Ice!
These products are absolutely amazing. They smell so good, and I’ve noticed a difference in the elasticity of my skin as well as the brightness and the few wrinkles I have. I have acne breakouts sometimes, but there has been a noticeable difference in how big the breakouts are and how fast they heal. Every time I wash my face, I feel like I am truly treating myself, and it feels so so good, especially because it’s all natural. I never want to stop using these products, and I can’t wait to try more! I think Mila is an absolute genius down to packaging her products. (They’re eco friendly.🥲)
DBT Baba Yaga is fantastic. I’m 70+ and this cream makes my skin feel so good. A little bit is all you need.
It’s very refreshing and my skin does not feel oily in the morning
Last year I stumbled upon this product at the Rosemary Beach Farmer's Market and I fell in love. I use it EVERY day. My day doesn't feel right without it. It gives me a natural glow and my skin feels so dewey.
I love how it glides onto my skin. It’s not greasy at all. My skin feels hydrated & glows!
These products are wonderful. My face was distressed after using a very irritating product. A few days of Wild Ice routine and a huge difference. Feels absolutely amazing
I tried this product when I was in Florida at a farmers market and quickly became obsessed! It is the perfect texture and it is doing wonders for my face. I can really tell when I go without, so I try not to! It leaves my skin smooth and hydrated and feeling great!
This is the second purchase.Wew talked to Mila on vacation at the farmers market at her tent.
Wonderful product with a natural glow.Works Great,
Thank you
I am really enjoying my Wild Ice ritual! The Baba Yaga is so light yet effective. I love how smoothly it goes on and how it leaves my skin soft without feeling heavy or greasy.
It's working Great.
Soft and luxiurius.
Love how this product add radiant and makes my skin looks healthier!
At 70+ years old with dry, sensitive skin, I am very pleased with this product. My skin felt smoother and shinier after using as directed. I am delighted with the results from using Yuki-Onna Facial Mask and am recommending it to my friends.
This is my second bottle of this stuff. I use Mila’s 4 step facial wash and care package. I use this toner after the blue minty face wash and before Cryo C and my moisturizer. I can’t say I really know how toner works except to prep my face for my serum and moisturizer. I can say that my complexion is looking better and better and I’d almost swear my wrinkles I’ve acquired during my 40 plus years are disappearing!
I purchased this regimen last October 2022. I noticed my skin is more hydrated, glows and fresh looking without makeup! I’m a satisfied customer!
