It is as important to apply a cosmetic product that suits your needs as it is to do it correctly. The effectiveness of your products largely depends on the latter; They must reach the right place, in the right way and in the right proportion to achieve optimal results. We explain how to apply facial product correctly…
How to apply a facial serum
The first step before applying any treatment is to cleanse and tone the skin. There are different types of toners, as well as different types of cleansers, oily skin cleanser, sensitive skin cleanser…as with everything, we must use the one that best suits our skin.
Facial serums are more concentrated than creams, this means that they have a greater amount of active ingredients. They are almost always applied before creams, they normally come with a dropper, a few drops are applied to the forehead, cheekbones and chin, and spread over the entire face, including the neck and décolleté.
We will massage in an upward direction. to avoid lack of firmness.When we are going to apply serum and cream, we must wait a few minutes before applying the cream so that our skin absorbs the product.
At night, it is highly recommended to use facial serums because they The skin absorbs more during these hours, on this occasion it is usually used alone, without the need for a cream.
Remember that there are many types of serum, oily skin, mature skin, flaccid, dry, sensitive skin serum, serum anti-pollution…each skin is different and each one has strengths and weaknesses; You must identify them and use the product that best suits you, if you have any questions we will be happy to solve them for you.
How to apply a facial cream
We will apply the facial cream in small quantities to the forehead, cheekbones, nose, chin, neck and neckline; not forgetting this last area. Like the serum, we have to massage it with circular movements in an upward direction.
Each skin is a world, and not only is each skin different from the rest, it is also that each area of the face is different to the others; The chin does not need the same as the eye contour, nor does the cheekbones need the same as the so-called T zone (the shape of this letter that our forehead would make with our nose is known as the T zone, and it is fatter than the rest of the face. ).
For example, in the case of combination skin, it is highly advisable to use two types of cream, one for the T zone and another for the rest. There is also the option of using a specific product for this problem and specifying that it is for oily skin, T zone, taking care of the other areas to avoid peeling or dehydration.This is because if we use a cream for oily skin on the entire face, what we do is dry out or dehydrate the cheekbones, chin, neck area…
How to apply the eye contour
The area around the eyes is possibly the most sensitive area of the face, it is the most used when we gesture, so the appearance of wrinkles is more evident in this area; These wrinkles are called expression lines or crow’s feet, and if that were not enough there are dark circles, bags…
Due to this, it is important to use a specific product for this area.
The way to apply the eye contour is by depositing small amounts around the eyes by tapping, as if we were playing a miniature drum, emphasizing the crow’s foot area.
In the case If we have bags we must apply it from the outside in, and otherwise from the inside out.
Tricks for the facial product
It is important not to apply an excessive amount of product, since that our skin will not absorb it. It is preferable, for dry skin, to repeat the process after a few hours.
Whenever we are going to apply makeup, it is necessary to wait 15 minutes after applying the cream, serum or eye contour, so that the active ingredient has been absorbed by the skin.
Last but not least, we recommend buying a professional aesthetic product, for the simple reason that it contains much more active ingredient. The results will be superior and in a shorter period of time.
It is also advisable to seek advice from a professional whenever we have doubts about a product or treatment; At beauty cosmetics we have been dedicated to this for more than 25 years and we love doing it.
