Apply lotion or essence first? The order of lotion and essence

Sometimes, if you use big-brand skin care products incorrectly, it will be useless. For example, when it comes to lotion and essence, should we apply lotion or essence first? What is the basic order of skin care?

Emulsion and essence order

The correct order of use is to use essence first and then lotion. The texture of essence is thinner than lotion, and the concentration of nutrients it contains is higher than lotion, making it easier to be absorbed by the skin. Using it first after toner can promote the skin's absorption of essence and ensure that the essence reaches the bottom layer of the skin. The lotion has the function of moisturizing and locking moisture. If used after the essence, it can deeply moisturize the skin and form a protective film on the skin surface. If you use lotion first and then essence, it will hinder the absorption of the essence.

The order of using skin care products after washing your face in the morning

Toner - Body lotion - Essence - Eye cream - Lotion or face cream - Sunscreen

Toner

After washing your face, you should apply toner to your facial skin within one minute, because the skin's water absorption capacity is the strongest at this time, which can effectively hydrate the skin and keep it hydrated. Remember, it is more conducive to absorption by "patting" rather than "rubbing".

Essence

Most of the ingredients in essence serum are both hydrophilic and lipophilic, which can break down the moisture and oil in skin care products at the same time, and then be better absorbed by the skin. At the same time, it is formulated with ingredients that soften and moisturize cuticles, making it easier for the cuticle to absorb subsequent care ingredients.

Essence

Essence is the best among skin care products, which can be inferred from its name alone. Its ingredients are very delicate and its effect on the skin is quite significant. It has become an essential step in skin care. Especially in the dry autumn, this step cannot be skipped.

Eye Cream

It is well known that eye cream can reduce dark circles and eye bags, but its effectiveness in improving wrinkles and fine lines may be less known. Therefore, it is recommended not to skip this step. We would like to remind everyone that the skin around the eyes is relatively fragile, so when applying eye cream, you must rub it gently so as not to damage the skin.

Lotion or cream

The skin not only needs to be hydrated, but also needs to lock in moisture. The work of hydrating has been completed in the first step by applying toner, and applying lotion or cream is the work of locking in moisture. This step must not be skipped, because if you only replenish moisture without locking it in, the moisture replenished to the skin's surface will quickly be lost, and all your efforts will end in failure.

Skin care precautions:

We must complete the complete skin care process every day, and do not let our skin become rough and dull because of laziness. Among them, lotion and essence are steps that cannot be omitted. The cooperation between the two can make our skin care work more effective. Use essence first and then lotion. This order cannot be changed, because essence plays a role in maintenance, while lotion plays a role in consolidation, which promotes skin absorption and makes the skin more bright, white and tender.
