5 key tips for applying facial creams correctly to make them work
To ensure your facial cream works at its best, it's important to follow certain steps and techniques. It turns out that what we've been doing for years might not be the best approach.

For instance, applying too much cream can be counterproductive, the order in which you apply your products can affect their effectiveness, and pre-cleansing is a step you should never skip.

Here are five key tips. Follow them for a few days and let us know how it goes!

Too much is never good
While it may seem like more cream equals more benefits, that’s not the case. The skin has an absorption limit, and applying too much can clog pores, leading to issues like breakouts and blackheads.

Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions and adjust the amount based on your skin’s needs.

Product order is essential
To achieve the best results, apply your products in the correct order. Start with cleansing, follow with toner, then serum, and finally your moisturizer. This order ensures that each product can penetrate properly and work effectively.

Always keep your skin clean
Before applying any cream, make sure your skin is completely clean. Use a cleanser suited to your skin type and, if necessary, an exfoliant to remove dead skin cells. This will allow the cream to absorb better and act more effectively.

Apply your cream with outward circular motions
The technique for applying facial cream is just as important as the product itself. Applying cream in upward and outward circular motions not only ensures better absorption of active ingredients but also offers additional benefits for the skin.

These motions help stimulate blood circulation, which can improve oxygenation and nutrient delivery to skin cells. In turn, this can lead to firmer, healthier skin.

Additionally, upward circular movements help counteract gravity, which can prevent sagging and keep the skin tighter and more elastic. This type of facial massage can also relax facial muscles, reducing tension and stress that contribute to wrinkles and fine lines.

It’s important to avoid rubbing or pulling the skin during application, as this can cause irritation and damage the skin’s protective barrier. Instead, use your fingertips to gently apply the cream, making small, controlled circular motions. Start from the center of the face and work your way outwards, ensuring you cover all areas, including the forehead, cheeks, nose, and chin.

How to apply a firming facial cream
Firming creams are designed to improve elasticity and restore the skin's firmness. To apply them correctly, follow these steps:

1. Deep cleanse. Ensure your skin is completely clean before applying the firming cream.
2. Target key points. Place small amounts of cream on strategic points of your face: forehead, cheeks, nose, and chin.
3. Upward massage. Using upward and circular motions, massage the cream into your skin. This helps stimulate circulation and enhance the absorption of active ingredients.
4. Don’t forget the neck and décolletage. Apply the cream in these areas as well, using upward motions to maintain firmness and elasticity.
