How Our Skin Quiz Works: Finding Your Personalised Bloc Routine in 60 Seconds
If you've ever stood in front of your bathroom shelf staring at a lineup of half-used serums, moisturisers, treatments and wondering why nothing quite works together, you're not alone.
The skincare industry has never been more crowded. Australians can choose from thousands of brands, hundreds of products and endless ingredient combinations. It's no wonder most of us end up spending hundreds on products that don't suit our skin, or worse, aggravate the concerns we were trying to fix in the first place.
At Bloc, this is the exact problem we set out to solve when we built our Skin Quiz. We wanted to create a simple, dermatologist-formulated way for anyone. Whether you're new to skincare or experienced, to get a personalised routine that actually makes sense for your skin.
Here's how it works, why it works and what you'll get at the end.
No two people have the same skin.
Your skin is shaped by dozens of variables:
- Your genetics - the skin type you were born with
- Your environment - climate, humidity, pollution, sun exposure
- Your hormones - pregnancy, menopause, stress
- Your lifestyle - diet, sleep, water intake
- Your existing concerns - acne, sensitivity, pigmentation, fine lines
Two people using the same skincare routine can get completely different results. That's why one-size-fits-all recommendations from magazines, influencers, or even sales assistants often fall short.
How the Bloc Skin Quiz works
Four quick questions. Sixty seconds. One personalised routine.
Our Skin Quiz was designed with our dermatologists to focus on the key inputs that determine what your skin actually needs - your skin type, your primary concerns, if you have sensitivity and what you're hoping to achieve.
Behind the quiz sits our full range of dermatologist-formulated products. Once you answer, we match your responses with the products most likely to suit your skin - based on real clinical evidence, not marketing claims.
The result is a suggested routine tailored to you, complete with the exact products, application order and frequency.
Why the Bloc approach is different
We're not the only skincare brand with a quiz. But we are one of the few that's genuinely built by dermatologists and that changes everything about how our recommendations work.
Bloc was founded by Dr Michael Freeman and Dr Andrew Freeman, two of Australia's most respected dermatologists, with over 40 years of clinical experience. Every product in our range is formulated based on what actually works in clinic, not what's trending on social media.
What to do after you take the quiz
Once you've got your routine, the most important thing is consistency.
Skincare doesn't work overnight, most people see meaningful change between 6 and 12 weeks of consistent use. That's not a marketing timeline; that's how your skin cell turnover actually works.
So give your routine time. Use it morning and night. Avoid adding other actives while your skin adjusts. And if you're not seeing the results you hoped for after 8–12 weeks, reach out, our team can help troubleshoot, recommend adjustments, or point you toward a specialist consultation.
