Apply essence or lotion first, the correct order is effective

Essence and lotion are both very important in skin care. They are also two skin care products of different natures and play different roles in the skin care process. So should you apply essence or lotion first? Let’s take a look today.

Should I apply essence or lotion first?

Apply essence first, and then apply lotion after the essence is fully absorbed, because essence itself is the skin care product with the highest concentration of skin care ingredients, and lotion, in addition to moisturizing the skin, can also form a barrier to lock in moisture on the surface of the skin. If you apply essence after applying lotion, the nutrients of the essence will be isolated in the outer layer by the barrier and cannot be absorbed by the skin, thus defeating the point of applying essence. Therefore, wait until the essence is absorbed before applying lotion.

Effect of Essence

The essence contains rich nutrients, and the small molecule essence in it can provide deep care for the facial skin. The essence ingredients have been finely purified and condensed, making it easier to be absorbed by the skin and giving the skin sufficient care.

The role of lotion

The function of lotion is actually similar to that of facial cream, which is to moisturize the skin. However, compared with facial cream, lotion appears to be more refreshing. Lotion can also consolidate skin care and promote the absorption of essence.

How to use the essence lotion

Press the essence into the palm of your hand to warm it, then gently pat it on your face, and then apply lotion. But remember, skin care must be done after thorough cleansing to promote skin absorption and avoid skin problems.
