Apr 23 HOW DO I APPLY MY SKINCARE SERUM

STEP 1.

WASH AND EXFOLIATE YOUR SKIN BEFORE YOU APPLY YOUR SERUM

Before you apply your serum, wash your face with a facial wash or scrub. Wet your face, then massage your face wash over your forehead, cheeks, nose, and chin. Move your fingers in small, circular motions, then rinse the face wash away. Washing your face removes superficial dirt and oil, while exfoliating gets into your pores for a deep clean. For best results, wash your face daily and exfoliate your skin 3-4 times a week. Do not use a manual exfoliator and a chemical exfoliator like glycolic acid in the same day.

STEP 2.

APPLY A DROP TO EACH SECTION OF YOUR FACE IF USING A THIN SERUM.

The amount of serum you use will vary depending on the consistency of the ingredients. When using thinner serums, you only need a tiny amount. Apply 1 drop to your finger, then rub onto your cheek. Repeat this for the other cheek, as well as your forehead and nose/chin area. Gently rub the serum in an upwards motion

STEP 3.

WARM 3-5 DROPS IN YOUR HANDS BEFORE APPLYING A THICK SERUM TO THE FACE.

More dense serums need to be warmed up before you apply them. To do this, drip a few drops into the palm of your hand, then rub your hands together. This evenly distributes the product on both of your hands, as well. Then, use gentle pressing movements to apply the serum over your face. Cover both cheeks, your forehead, your nose, and your chin. When applying the serum, you want to push the product into your skin with gentle sweeping motions.

Step 4.

TAP YOUR SKIN GENTLY FOR 30-60 SECONDS UNTIL THE SIRUM IS ABSORBED.

After you’ve rubbed the serum onto your skin, place your fingers on your cheek and press your skin in small, circular motions. Repeat this across the entirety of your face for about a minute.This way, the serum will absorb deep into your skin.

Step 5.

WAIT ONE MINUTE TO APPLY MOISTURIZER OVER ALL YOUR FACE.

Your serum will mostly dissolve into your skin after about a minute. Then, squeeze a dime-size amount of moisturizer into your hand, and rub it over your forehead, cheeks, nose, and chin.

The moisturizer seals in all of the serum’s nourishing properties, so your skin will look radiant and glowing in no time.

If you are doing this in the morning, you can apply your makeup after you apply the moisturizer. Just give the moisturizer another minute to dry before starting your makeup routine.
