A personalized skincare
routine built by AI.
Quartz builds a clear morning and night skincare routine that matches your skin type, your concerns, and the products you already own. Instead of guessing layer order or copying a viral routine that doesn't fit your skin, you get an AM/PM plan that respects ingredient interactions, climate, and how your skin actually behaves week to week.
- AM and PM routines tailored to your skin type and concerns
- Smart product picks — or use what you already have
- Safe layering rules (retinoid, AHA/BHA, vitamin C, SPF)
- Adapts when you break out, travel, or run out of a product
Why most skincare routines fail
The two most common mistakes in skincare are stacking too many actives at once and copying someone else’s routine wholesale. A routine built for oily, acne-prone skin in a humid climate is wrong for dry, sensitive skin in dry winter air. Quartz personalizes the routine itself, not just the product picks, so your skin actually responds.
- Cleanser type matched to oil production, sensitivity and makeup use
- Active ingredients introduced gradually to avoid barrier damage
- SPF, hydration and barrier support sized to your climate
- Pause / swap rules when your skin reacts or you travel
How Quartz builds your skincare routine
You share a few facts about your skin: type, common concerns (acne, texture, redness, pigmentation, aging), what you’ve tried, what irritates you, and what climate you live in. Quartz combines that with rules informed by dermatology best practices to write your AM and PM routine, step by step.
- AM: cleanser, treatment (antioxidant / hydration), moisturizer, SPF
- PM: cleanser, treatment (retinoid / acid / hydration), moisturizer
- Weekly add-ons (exfoliation, masks) only when your skin can handle them
- Clear product reasons so you understand each step
Ingredients Quartz handles for you
Some ingredient combinations work beautifully together; others irritate skin or cancel each other out. Quartz handles the layering rules so you don’t have to memorize them.
- Retinoids paired with the right moisturizer and never with strong AHAs at the same time
- Vitamin C placed where it absorbs best in the AM routine
- Niacinamide and hydrators slotted in for barrier support
- SPF treated as non-optional — every AM routine
Use what you own, buy what helps
Quartz doesn’t force you to buy products. If you tell it what you already own, your routine is built around your shelf. When a product genuinely helps your goal — for example, an SPF you’re missing — Quartz suggests options at different price points with clear reasoning.
