What is the reason for the lotion not being absorbed?

Lotion is a product used by many people and is also a common skin care product. So what is the reason why lotion is not absorbed? What should I do if the lotion is not absorbed?

Why is the lotion not absorbed?

If the lotion cannot be absorbed, it may be because the stratum corneum is too thick and you need to exfoliate your face regularly. It may also be because your skin is too dehydrated and needs more water. If you usually apply it directly with your hands, you can try applying it with a cotton pad, which is easier to absorb. At the same time, you should also pay attention to the order of using skin care products. You should use toner first, then eye cream, essence, and lotion. If you have tried all these methods and it still cannot be absorbed, it is recommended that you use a different lotion.

What to do if the lotion is not absorbed

1. Change the application method

Generally, we apply skin care products directly on the face. If the skin cannot fully absorb the products, first make sure you do not apply a large amount of skin care products. Secondly, you can change the application method appropriately. For example, you can use a facial mask or cotton pads to apply skin care products on your face. The facial mask can increase the surface temperature of the skin and enhance the skin's absorption effect. Note: Whether you are using a facial mask or skin care products, the ingredients should be natural and mild, otherwise it will increase the irritation to the skin.

2. Change the order of application

You should know that if you apply skin care products in the wrong order, subsequent skin care products may not be effectively absorbed by the skin. Generally, we use toner first, then lotion, and then face cream. If you have neutral or dry skin, you can try using lotion to smooth the cuticle first, making the lipid bilayer between the cuticle more complete, and then use lotion to promote absorption. Note: Do not use on oily or oily skin, otherwise you may get acne easily.

3. Massage your skin

You should know that if you apply skin care products in the wrong order, subsequent skin care products may not be effectively absorbed by the skin. Generally, we use toner first, then lotion, and then face cream.

4. Steam your face

The skin may not be able to effectively absorb skin care products because the pores are not open or are even blocked. Steaming your face can help open your pores, promote the penetration of skin care products into the skin, and improve the skin's absorption capacity. Method: You can use a special facial steamer to steam your face for 1 to 2 minutes, or use hot water, wrap your head with a towel, and let your head be surrounded by the hot air wrapped in the towel.

5. Make good use of the power of your fingertips

When applying makeup, use the strength of the fingertips, not the palm of your hand or the fingertips. Because the fingertips have moderate strength and are elastic, the skin feels most comfortable

6. It is important to choose the right product

Most lotions are designed for dry skin, but if the lotion is labeled "light type", it means that it contains less oil and is more suitable for combination or oily skin.

Okay, now you know what to do if the lotion is not absorbed.
