Which should I use first, moisturizer or lotion?

Use moisturizing water first, then moisturizing lotion, and finally moisturizing cream. Skin care products should be used according to the actual needs of individual skin. Water is the first step in basic skin care and also a key part, playing a connecting role. If the skin is so dry that you need to use moisturizing lotion and moisturizing cream together, use moisturizing lotion first and then moisturizing cream, because moisturizing lotion replenishes water and moisturizing cream locks in moisture. When using moisturizing lotion and facial cream at the same time, you should use the lotion first and then the moisturizing cream. The facial cream is used after all skin care products are used. While moisturizing and emollient, it helps the skin lock in nutrients and moisture to prevent loss. The lotion contains rich water, a small amount of oil and has good fluidity. The textures of the two are different. The moisturizing cream has a thicker texture, contains more oil, and has a good moisturizing effect. After cleansing, use moisturizing water first, wipe the face and neck with a cotton pad avoiding the eyes and lips, apply lotion in the morning, and then apply sunscreen. At night, first use makeup remover to remove sunscreen with a cotton pad, then apply moisturizer and face cream.

Which should you use first, moisturizer or essence? Use essence first, then moisturizer. After using the base lotion, you must use the essence product, and use the essence before the lotion and cream (moisturizer). Because the molecules of the essence are relatively small, the skin cannot absorb the essence well if used later, so the essence must be used first. At the same time, the essence must also follow the principles of anti-aging - whitening - moisturizing, and use the essence correctly according to the procedures. After using the essence, you can apply lotion or cream (moisturizer). If you have oily skin, you can only use lotion. If you have dry skin, you can use cream (moisturizer). Bacteria require a large amount of vitamins, proteins and biological cell nutrients during their growth and reproduction. These substances are also the main ingredients of general "essence". So, does “essence” nourish the skin or nourish bacteria? It depends on whether these nutrients can be fully absorbed by the skin. Do not leave essence on your face for too long, and do not leave it on your face overnight like a nourishing cream, as this will absorb the moisture from your face and make your skin feel very dry.

Do you wash off your moisturizer after using it? Don’t wash your face after using moisturizer. Washing your face with cold water before applying moisturizer can refresh your skin, stimulate blood circulation in your face, and make your skin look brighter. It is best to use a thick moisturizer that can lock in moisture. After applying it, wait for a few minutes to allow the skin to absorb it before applying makeup. When the air temperature drops, the skin's stratum corneum cannot adjust sufficient moisturizing factors in time, the activity of the oil glands decreases, the oil and moisture on the face decreases, and the skin becomes tight. Using a moisturizing cream can moisturize the skin and prevent skin evaporation, improve microcirculation, and enhance skin moisture. You should drink enough water on a daily basis, at least 8 large glasses of water a day. In addition to drinking water, don't forget to eat more fruits. Do not wash your face with overheated water, and be sure to use toner to replenish moisture after washing your face.
