The correct way to use lotion is to reapply it to dry areas.

Lotion is a moisturizing skin care product that we use every morning and evening. If you want to really do a good job of skin care, you must know the correct way to use lotion. Let’s take a look at whether this is how you use it.

The correct way to use lotion

After cleansing, use toner for secondary cleansing and apply essence. After the essence is absorbed, take an appropriate amount of lotion and apply it with the strength of your fingertips. Apply it to the driest areas first, from the cheeks to the corners of the mouth, upper and lower jaws, etc., and then apply it to the entire face to give the dry areas a double moisturization. Applying lotion should be combined with massaging movements to facilitate skin absorption. Massage from the center of the face outwards with gentle movements until it is fully absorbed by the skin.

The correct amount of lotion

Generally speaking, the amount of lotion used will not exceed the amount of toner, and is about the size of a dime. But if sometimes you feel your skin is very tired or your complexion is dull, it means your skin needs more moisture and nutrition. At this time, you should increase the amount used, using two to three coins-sized amounts, so that your skin can get more moisture and nutrition.

Should I apply lotion with cotton pads or by hand?

The lotion can be applied with a cotton pad or directly with your hands. If you find it troublesome, you can apply it with your hands, just make sure your hands are clean. If the lotion is a bit sticky or oily on your face, applying it with a cotton pad can make it feel more refreshing and absorb better.
