I'm new to Asian skincare (or any skincare actually) and quickly realized that the skincare products I previously ordered aren't mild enough for my sensitive skin. I found Hada Labo Gokujyun while looking for fragrance-free products and my trial size set is now on it's way.

Quick question for those of you that use it: Do you use a toner with it? How about an essence or serum? I think I read that the "lotion" is actually an essence and the "milk" is the lotion, but I'm not sure. According to the instructions, the order is roughly like this:

1 - cleansing oil
2 - foaming wash
3 - ?? (do I use a toner here)
4 - lotion
5 - ?? (does essence/serum go here) ??
6 - milk

Does this order look right? Do you use a separate toner, essence, or serum? I'd save on shipping (and possibly avoid a double whammy on customs fees) if I order this stuff with other items I was already planning on buying, but I'm not sure if it's compatible/necessary. Any comments & suggestions highly appreciated! Thanks!
