Do you know the correct skin care steps: apply essence first and then water?

Many skin care novices may not know where to start when faced with complex skin care steps. Many people don’t know that they should apply essence first and then water. Don’t worry, the following article will help you understand this issue.

Is it better to apply essence first and then water?

When taking care of your skin, you should apply water first. Toner can help us with secondary cleansing, and it can also hydrate and moisturize the skin to a certain extent, and provide a base for the skin, so that the essence can be better absorbed and the effect of essence absorption will be better. Therefore, you must use water first and then use essence.

What are the correct skin care steps?

1. Toner

Generally speaking, whether you are doing skin care before putting on makeup or before going to bed, the first thing you need to do is wash your face, so there is nothing much to say about this. But after washing our face, we must remember to use toner, which is the first step in our daily skin care.

We can pour toner on cotton pad and then gently wipe the entire face to replenish moisture to the facial skin. Especially those with oily skin should use cotton pads to apply toner, because it can be better absorbed in this way. If you feel your face is very dry, you can also use toner to moisturize your skin.

2. Eye cream

After applying toner, we must also remember to apply eye cream around the eyes. You know, our eyes are constantly moving every day, and if you don’t take good care of them, fine lines will easily appear. Some friends may think that they are still young and fine lines will not appear so quickly. In fact, this is also a wrong idea.

Generally speaking, we should use eye cream when we start skin care. If you are still young, you can just use a moisturizing eye cream.

3. Essence

After applying eye cream, we can apply essence. Similarly, if you are worried that your skin cannot absorb the essence well, you can pour the essence onto a cotton pad and then wipe it all over your face. Of course, this method is relatively luxurious, so you should decide based on your own situation.

4. Lotion

After you finish using the essence, we should use lotion to moisturize our skin, so as to ensure that the moisture of the skin will not be lost. Generally speaking, lotions are divided into refreshing and moisturizing types. If you have oily skin, you should try to choose refreshing lotions, which will not cause your skin to become sticky.

5. Facial Cream

After applying lotion, if you feel your skin is still very dry, you can add another layer of cream on your face. In fact, many people may not know that lotion plays a moisturizing role, but if you want to really lock the moisture in our skin, you need to rely on facial cream. But if you have oily skin, then don't use facial cream, lest your skin cannot absorb it.
