“The 5 Best Times to Apply Moisturizer and Body Lotion”

Heya everyone,

Using moisturizer and lotion is part of a good daily skincare regimen. When you moisturize your face every day, you prevent dryness, replace lost moisture, and help lock hydration in your skin.

Applying lotion every day softens rough, dry patches on your knees, elbows, and other parts of your body, which can be irritating and unappealing.

However, buying the right moisturizing products and using them every day is often not enough to get the most benefits from this skincare regimen. You have to know the best times to apply them and never skip doing it.

1. After washing your face and taking a bath.

The best time to apply moisturizer is when your skin is still damp since doing so locks in the hydrating ingredients effectively.

Also, rub lotion all over your body as soon as you get out of the shower. This allows you to replace the natural oils that your skin loses when you take a bath.

2. Before going to bed

When you sleep, your body repairs the damaged skin cells. You can help promote and enhance this process by applying moisturizer to your face before going to bed.

Apply moisturizer on your face 30 minutes before sleeping to give your skin time to absorb it and keep from simply smearing it on your pillows.

3. Pre- and post-flight

To get the most from your moisturizer, cleanse your face with a rinse-free cleanser, such as micellar water, first. Apply your moisturizing product immediately once done.

If you are on a long flight, you might want to cleanse and moisturize once or twice while in the air to keep your skin hydrated.

4. When you want to skip putting on makeup and perfume

Additionally, the right facial moisturizer will hydrate and smooth out your skin, giving you an amazing complexion even without a foundation and highlighter. It also makes it easier for you to apply your makeup of choice.

With the right moisturizing product, your skin will look fresh and less dull, and have a luminous glow, particularly if you’re sitting in front of natural light.

With the right moisturizing products and proper application timings, you won’t have to worry about having dry skin ever. You’ll get the most from your skincare regimen as well.

See you soon ❤️
