How much is the appropriate amount of skin base lotion to use at one time?

In our daily life, many people like to use essence serum, which is a very popular skin care product. It can help open the pores of the skin and speed up the absorption of subsequent skin care products.

You can use 2-3 drops of essence at a time. You can use it directly after cleansing. First, drop the essence on your hands, and then slowly apply it to your face with your fingertips. The main function of essence is to prime the skin. Primer here refers to the first step of moisturizing the skin. Its main function is to open the stratum corneum of the skin so that subsequent skin care products can be better absorbed. Essence can be used as the first step after cleansing, or as an essence after toner. Although essence is not a must-have skin care product, it is recommended to use essence after the age of 25. After all, girls' skin will have various problems starting from the age of 25, and the activity of the skin will be much worse than before, and the absorption of skin care products will be greatly reduced. At this time, essence is needed to enhance the activity of the skin. Although 25 is the age to use essence, this limit is not absolute. If your skin is active enough and there are no other problems, you can use no essence. However, not all skin types are suitable for using essence-based lotion. If you have acne-prone skin, it is not recommended to use only essence-based lotion, as that will only increase the nutrients in the skin and make acne more likely to occur.

Since this product can improve the penetration and absorption of subsequent skin care products, it should of course be placed before nutritional or functional skin care products, which determines that the base lotion should be used after toner and before eye cream essence. Although it is only a single product that promotes the absorption of subsequent nutrients, it contains certain essences and ingredients that soften keratin. Therefore, in order to avoid irritation or uneven application, you need to take a small amount of 1-2 drops each time and quickly apply it evenly on the face. After that, you can press the base lotion and use your ring finger to massage your face in circles to slowly open the pores and improve its absorption capacity.

First of all, we must understand that the skin does not exist to absorb (beauty ingredients). On the contrary, the main function of the skin is to provide a barrier and protection. However, even if most beauty ingredients "go to" the 0.02mm thin stratum corneum, whether they float on the surface of the stratum corneum or penetrate deep into the stratum corneum, the effects on the skin are very different. In order to allow the active ingredients to penetrate deeper into the stratum corneum and achieve a more ideal skin care effect, the base lotion that promotes absorption came into being.

The essence of the skin cannot be used at any age. Generally speaking, it is better to use it after the age of 18. Before the age of 18, the skin only needs to be cleaned well, and there is no need to use too many skin care products. The essence of the skin is used to promote the skin's absorption of other skin care products, so it is naturally not used.

1. Poor skin absorption

The purpose of the serum is to help the skin absorb other skin care products better. It is best to use it when the skin has poor absorption, so that the serum can really be used to its full potential. Generally, if there is no excessive accumulation in the stratum corneum, the skin care products will remain on the skin surface for a long time after application and cannot be completely absorbed by the skin, then the serum needs to be used to save the situation.

2. Use after using lotion

In addition to the age and skin type of the essence, the order of use is also very important. It is usually used after toner. Toner can clean the skin again and help open the water channels of the skin, helping the essence to better penetrate the skin and work.

3. Use after cleansing in the morning

It is better to use the essence in the morning after cleansing. In the morning, we usually do a close skin care and maintenance. Using essence can help the skin absorb the subsequent lotion or cream and other products, and can also avoid the greasy feeling of the skin. In the evening, we usually do a simpler skin care, and the effect of using essence at this time is not as good as in the morning.
