Which should I use first, essential oil or facial cream? You can use essential oil first and then facial cream, or you can mix essential oil and facial cream and use them together. Let me give you a detailed introduction to the difference between the two methods. Let’s take a look~

Which should I use first, essential oil or facial cream?

There are two orders for using essential oils and facial creams. The first is to use the essential oils first and then the facial cream; the second is to mix the essential oils and facial creams and use them together. Both are acceptable. The usage is different and the effect is also different.

Essential Oil Effects

Jasmine essential oil can lift your spirits, boost your confidence, make childbirth easier, soothe coughs, and care for and improve skin elasticity. Lemon essential oil can remove dead cells, brighten skin tone, tighten capillaries, promote collagen production, lighten melanin, and has a purifying effect on oily hair and skin. It can improve oily skin and has the effects of cleansing, astringing, balancing oil secretion and whitening skin. Lemon essential oil can prevent wrinkles, increase skin radiance and fade freckles.

Do essential oils have a shelf life?

Essential oils have a shelf life. Because although essential oils are highly concentrated plant essences, they are not as easy to deteriorate and spoil as other skin care products. However, plants themselves also have a life cycle, from the peak of their effectiveness to withering and dying, so when choosing essential oils, be sure to choose the best time to use them. Once the essential oil has passed its optimal period of effect, its other effects will gradually weaken or even disappear, and in the end only the aroma will remain. Therefore, the best time to use essential oils is their shelf life.

Essential oil use precautions

If you are a girl who is using a certain essential oil for the first time, you must do a sensitivity test. If you use single essential oil, be sure to dilute it before use, because the concentration of single essential oil is relatively high. When using essential oil, you also need to avoid the eyes and lips. Because the skin around the eyes and lips is relatively fragile and has lower tolerance than the skin in other parts of the body.
