How to Use Ninfa Skincare’s Immortelle Toner, Cream, and Serum

Immortelle (Helichrysum Italicum) is one of the most prized botanical ingredients in skincare, known for its soothing, antioxidant, and regenerating properties. But a natural question arises: is it better to use it in the form of a toner, cream, or serum?

Each formulation serves a specific function and meets different skin needs. In this article, we’ll guide you through choosing the most suitable product - helping you understand when to reach for a toner, when to opt for a concentrated serum, and when to rely on a cream with Immortelle. And if you’re tempted to use them all, we’ll also show you how to combine them into a mindful skincare ritual.

The Immortelle Toner: The Ideal Step After Cleansing

Toner is often underestimated, yet it plays a fundamental role in balancing the skin - especially when it’s formulated with active ingredients like Immortelle.

Why choose it:

• Restores skin’s pH after cleansing

• Refreshes and soothes redness or irritation

• Prepares the skin to better absorb the next treatments

A toner based on Immortelle floral water is especially recommended for sensitive, reactive, or redness-prone skin. It has a gentle astringent action, helps reduce the appearance of enlarged pores, and provides a natural feeling of freshness.

Dermo tip: We recommend using the 👉 Botanically Active Toner Mist Immortelle only in the morning after cleansing. Spray directly onto the face or apply with a cotton pad, immediately after cleansing.

The Immortelle Cream: Daily Nourishment and Protection

A face cream is your daily moment of care - it locks in hydration and protects the skin’s barrier. When enriched with Immortelle extract or essential oil, it becomes a soothing and hydrating treatment suitable for all skin types.

Ideal if:

• You have dry or normal skin

• You want a product to use both morning and evening

• You’re looking for a protective yet lightweight effect

The best Immortelle creams have silky textures, absorb easily, and leave the skin soft without any greasy residue. Thanks to the presence of an enzymatically activated phytocomplex made from almond, olive, flaxseed, and borage oils, Ninfa's cream delivers intense hydration without a greasy feel - making it perfect also for colder seasons or for mature and dehydrated skin.

Suggested routine: Use it in the morning after cleansing and applying toner. Gently massage a small amount of the 👉 Revitalizing Day Cream onto your face and neck, using upward strokes. We recommend applying SPF 30 (minimum) all year round after the cream.

The Immortelle Serum: A High-Concentration Active Treatment

Serum is the most powerful and targeted product in your skincare routine. Unlike toner and cream, it contains a much higher concentration of active ingredients and is designed to penetrate deeply.

When to choose it:

• If your skin looks dull, tired, or stressed

• If you’re seeking a visible anti-aging effect

• If you want to maximize the benefits of Immortelle

An anti-aging Immortelle serum is ideal after age 30, when the skin begins to lose elasticity and radiance. Thanks to its antioxidant action, it helps fight free radicals, stimulates cellular regeneration, and improves skin texture.

Expert tip: Thanks to its highly concentrated formula rich in botanical actives, the 👉 Revitalizing Night Serum is designed exclusively for evening use, as cell turnover and microcirculation reach their peak during the night - tripling compared to daytime levels. Apply 2–3 drops to clean skin and gently massage from the center of the face outward.

How to Combine All Three in Your Skincare Ritual

To fully enjoy the benefits of Immortelle, you can include all three products in your daily routine, following this sequence:

1. Immortelle Toner – to rebalance and prepare

2. Immortelle Cream – to hydrate and protect

3. Immortelle Serum – to treat the skin deeply

This combination works particularly well for skin over 30, which may begin to show signs of stress, dehydration, or early sagging.

Pro tip: Turn your skincare into a sensorial ritual. Breathe in the balsamic scent of Immortelle, massage each product with care, and tune in to what your skin is telling you.

Conclusion: the right choice depends on your skin (and the time of day)

There isn’t just one right product: toner, serum, and cream each have different yet complementary roles. If you're looking for a quick and simple step, start with the toner. But if you want a complete anti-aging routine, consistently use all three.

Understanding the function of each formula and how to use it correctly is the first step toward more balanced, radiant, and naturally protected skin.
