A Short Line Works When Each Bottle Has One Job
A capsule line is not minimal until you can name what each bottle is for.

A short line can still be a mess if three bottles do the same thing and none of them cleanse. Minimal is a job chart, not a bottle count. One product removes the day. One refines, if your skin can take it. One treats. One seals. The eye is a separate, smaller decision. When those jobs are filled, another serum has to say which job it stole. If it cannot, the line was only short in the advertisement.
Danucera is arranged that way. Cerabalm cleanses. D22 Tonic refines. Mega Serum treats and hydrates. Cream Supreme seals. Iconic Eye is for the lid, not a requirement for everyone. You do not need all of them on day one. You need the chart. Start with cleanse and cream. Add the toner when the skin is calm enough to be exfoliated. That sequence is the line. The extra bottles are optional, which is what makes the required ones believable.
If your current shelf is long, do not add a short line beside it. Replace. A capsule that sits next to the old routine is just more plastic. Short works when the retired products are actually gone.
