Do I need to apply lotion after using Clinique Butter?

No need to apply. Clinique Butter can be used directly as lotion, no need to apply other lotion. Clinique Butter is a moisturizing gel, neither a lotion nor a cream, but it can be used as a daily moisturizing lotion. The texture of butter is between water and lotion, and it has an integrative effect. It is used after facial cleanser and toner. After using the butter, use essence, day cream/night cream, isolation/sunscreen.

When to use Clinique Butter

Clinique Butter should be used twice a day, once in the morning after cleansing and once at night after removing makeup. After cleansing, apply a little toner, squeeze Clinique Butter onto a cotton pad and gently wipe the cheeks, forehead, chin, and finally the nose. Or squeeze it into the palm of your hand and use the six-point method to gently pat to allow the Clinique Butter to be fully absorbed.

How to use Clinique Butter

The order of using Clinique Butter is after toner and before lotion and essence, or it can be used instead of lotion for oily skin. First, apply toner after cleansing, then apply Clinique butter to adjust the water and oil status of the skin and make the skin a channel for nutrient introduction. Then apply essence and then cream to moisturize, and finally apply primer to complete the entire skin care process.

Why is Clinique butter after water and before essence?

Clinique Butter is not a lotion or cream in the sense of the word, but a new type of skin care product, similar to essence, a body lotion. Although it also has a moisturizing effect, if you want to maximize the effect of the butter, you should apply a product such as essence cream after the Clinique Butter, so that the essence product can better penetrate into the bottom layer of the skin, moisturize and protect the skin, and make the skin look youthful and radiant.

There are two types of butter: oil-containing and oil-free

There are only two types of Clinique butter, one is Clinique oil-containing butter, and the other is Clinique oil-free butter. Genius Butter and Little Butter are also nicknames for Clinique Butter. The ingredients in Clinique Butter are nourishing and replicate the natural balance of water and oil, allowing the skin's surface to become a nutrient conductor, meeting the skin's needs and leaving it moisturized and elastic.

Clinique has oily butter, also known as lotion, which contains oil and is more suitable for dry skin and normal skin. Although this product has been recommended by Hong Kong doctors for allergic or acne-prone skin, the oily butter in this product still contains a lot of acne-causing ingredients, so it is still best to choose it in moderation.

Clinique oil-free butter is gel. The previous old version was called oil-free, which is Clinique butter gel. This butter does not contain oil and is suitable for oily skin and combination skin. It has relatively more functional ingredients and fewer acne-causing ingredients. The ingredients are relatively safer and suitable for sensitive skin.
