Applying a day cream should be considered part of a comprehensive beauty routine. On perfectly clean skin, start by toning your face with a lotion. When the skin is moistened, keratinocytes, the visible cells of the epidermis, are more receptive to the subsequent care. That is why using a face serum, especially a watery serum, under the day cream is an excellent idea to revitalize the epidermis.
Next, apply a small amount of day cream that you have slightly warmed with your fingertips for optimal penetration. For the best application, start from the center of the face and massage the cream into the cheeks, then move upward to reach the forehead and downward to go to the chin. Finish with the nose, which does not require a large amount of moisturizer. Always ensure to use movements from the inside to the outside of the face, as well as repeated horizontal strokes on the forehead to smooth out wrinkles.
It is beneficial to adopt gestures composed of small circular movements to stimulate blood and lymphatic circulation.
