Why is it sticky after applying lotion and cream in summer? Can I use skin care lotion and cream together?

Skin care also requires the use of many skin care products. Common skin care products include toner, lotion, facial cream and so on. Generally, when taking care of your skin, you will apply toner first and then lotion. But sometimes after applying lotion, my face feels sticky. What’s going on?

Why is it sticky after applying lotion?

The oil in the lotion is more moisturizing than water, so it may feel sticky after application. It may also be that the moisturizing essence in the lotion is taking effect. At this time, you can massage your face properly to allow the moisturizing essence to be better absorbed by the skin. Or when using lotion, you use too much, and the poor skin foundation affects the absorption. The skin care products are not absorbed, and the face will feel oily and sticky. Therefore, when using skin care products, you must control the amount. It should not be too little or too much. Just the right amount is best.

It is also possible that the lotion and lotion you bought are not suitable for you. When purchasing skin care products, you must pay attention and choose according to your personal skin condition. For example: people with dry skin can choose moisturizing skin care products, people with oily skin can choose refreshing skin care products, and so on.

Can skin care lotion and cream be used together in summer?

For summer skin care, it is not recommended to use lotion and cream together.

1. Make your skin very oily

Lotions and creams have basically the same skin care effects. The skin secretes more oil in summer. If lotion and cream are used together, it will increase the burden on the skin and will not be easily absorbed by the skin, causing the skin to become very oily.

2. It can easily cause excess nutrition for the skin

Cream is more moisturizing than lotion. If they are used together, the skin cannot absorb so much nutrition at once. Long-term use of them together will lead to overnutrition of the skin and the formation of fat particles. Fat particles not only affect the appearance, but are also very difficult to remove.

3. Prone to skin allergies

Although lotions and creams belong to the same type of product, their ingredients are different. If lotion and cream are not from the same brand, some chemicals in the lotion and cream may react to produce chemicals that irritate the skin and cause skin allergies. Therefore, when using lotions and creams of different brands, it is best to wait for ten minutes after applying the lotion before applying the cream.
