Aysha MD Routine
Your ritual, made simple.
Your complete guide to when and how to use every Aysha MD product, from your morning cleanse to your evening ritual.
Morning RitualFresh & Dewy
About 3 minutes. Cleanse, hydrate, glow, protect.
Your morning, step by step
- Cleanse with Black Silk. Wet your face with warm water, massage a small amount into a lather, and rinse well.
- Hydrate with Dew Silk. Pat 2–3 drops onto slightly damp skin.
- Glow with Pearl Glow. Apply 2–4 pumps over face and neck and massage until absorbed.
- Refine with Satin Glow. Tap a pea-sized amount onto face and neck.
- Moisturize with Velvet Renew. Massage a dime-sized amount into face and neck.
- Protect with SPF 30+. Finish with your favourite broad-spectrum sunscreen, every morning.
Short on time? Black Silk, one serum and Velvet Renew make a great quick routine. Just don't skip the SPF.
Evening RitualRepair & Restore
About 4 minutes, plus wind-down time.
Your evening, step by step
- Cleanse with Black Silk. Cleanse once, or twice if you wore makeup or sunscreen.
- Hydrate with Dew Silk. 2–3 drops on slightly damp skin.
- Glow with Pearl Glow. 2–4 pumps over face and neck.
-
Treat with tonight's serum. Use just one, following the weekly schedule below:
- Golden Hour (vitamin C): a small amount on brightening nights.
- Midnight Silk (retinol): shake well, then 3–4 drops on renewal nights.
- Satin Glow (niacinamide): a pea-sized amount on rest nights.
- Seal with Dream Glow. Apply about ¼ tsp to face and neck 45–60 minutes before bed.
Your weekly night schedule
- Monday: Midnight Silk
- Tuesday: Golden Hour
- Wednesday: Satin Glow
- Thursday: Midnight Silk
- Friday: Golden Hour
- Saturday: Midnight Silk (once your skin is used to it; otherwise Satin Glow)
- Sunday: Satin Glow
New to retinol? Start Midnight Silk on Monday and Thursday only. If your skin feels comfortable after 2–3 weeks, add Saturday.
Body RitualA little care, head to toe.
Daily: Shower ritual
-
Cleanse with a bar.
- Spice Glow Bar for a brightening clean: lather, leave on for 30–60 seconds, then rinse with cool water.
- Honey Silk Bar on dry or sensitive days: lather with warm water and rinse.
-
Moisturize within 3 minutes of towel-drying, while skin is still damp.
- Golden Balm: warm a small amount between your fingertips and massage in all over.
- Shea Glow: melt a little between your fingertips and press onto elbows, knees, heels, hands and dry ends of hair.
Weekly: Polish day (1–2 times a week)
- Soften with Honey Silk Bar. Lather and rinse.
- Polish with Espresso Glow. Massage a handful onto damp skin in circles for 1–2 minutes, then rinse with warm water.
- Seal with Golden Balm and Shea Glow as usual.
On Polish Day, skip Spice Glow on the same areas, since one exfoliating step a day is enough. The scrub's oils can make your shower floor slippery, so step carefully.

Good to Know
- Layer thinnest to richest. Apply water-light serums first and creams last, waiting 30–60 seconds between serums.
- One treatment per night. Never use Golden Hour and Midnight Silk on the same night.
- Start slowly. Introduce one new product at a time, and patch test each on your inner arm for 24 hours first.
- SPF every morning. It's essential when using retinol or vitamin C. Golden Hour's label also advises avoiding sun after application, which is why it's an evening step.
- Pregnant, breastfeeding or trying to conceive? Check with your healthcare provider before using Midnight Silk (retinol), Dream Glow (melatonin) or Black Silk, as their labels advise.
- Sensitive skin? Golden Hour contains fragrance, and Black Silk contains tea tree oil. Patch test first, and use Satin Glow on more nights instead of Golden Hour if needed.
- Store well. Keep products cool and dry, and let soap bars dry between uses. Golden Balm can melt above about 85°F (29°C); if it separates, stir it and refrigerate.
