Can I apply serum directly on my face?

Serum cannot be applied directly on the face. Before applying the essence, you need to emulsify the essence. Pour the essence into the palm of your hand, put your hands together and rub them gently. The temperature of your palms can completely emulsify the essence. At this time, apply the essence on your face, which will allow the skin to absorb the nutrients in the essence more effectively.

Essence needs massage

Apply the emulsified essence evenly on the face, and gently press the face in circles with the palm of your hand to promote the absorption of the essence. Be careful not to press too hard when making circles, so as not to pull the skin and cause fine lines.

Why can't you apply serum directly on your face?

1. Active ingredients cannot be stimulated

Essence is a concentrated product, most of its substances are active ingredients that can penetrate into the dermis of the skin, repair cells and delay skin aging. However, it is difficult for such active ingredients to exert their effects when they come into direct contact with the face. Therefore, when applying essence, you generally need to rely on the strength of your hands to increase the temperature of the essence so that the active ingredients can be stimulated.

Second, direct use can easily irritate the skin

Generally speaking, applying essence is the second step of skin care. The face is in a relatively dry state right after washing. Using essence directly for skin care can easily irritate the skin. Generally, before applying essence, you need to apply toner to soothe the skin.
