Benefits of moisturizer
The use of moisturizer is helpful for skin care. The moisturizer keeps the skin hydrated. Due to this, the closed skin pores of the skin also start opening, due to which many skin problems like warts and rashes can be cured.
The right time to apply moisturizer
According to experts, the right time to apply moisturizer is after bathing. But do not apply moisturizer immediately after bathing, rather first wipe the skin completely with a towel. Keep in mind that do not dry the skin too much but leave it slightly moist. Applying moisturizer on such skin maintains softness for a long time. Apply moisturizer five minutes after bathing.
Sun and dirt stick to the face throughout the day, which can cause problems like acne and pigmentation. Therefore, face wash should be done two to three times a day. After face wash, wipe the skin with a towel and apply moisturizer.
Moisturizer should be applied before applying makeup. Due to this, makeup products do not hurt the skin, and wrinkles and freckles do not appear on the skin before age.
Moisturizer should be applied before sleeping at night. Before sleeping, clean the skin thoroughly with face wash or toner and then apply moisturizer after five minutes. Close the skin pores by applying more moisturizer.
The correct way to apply moisturizer
Moisturizer should be applied at least two to three times a day on dry skin. When going out of the house, moisturizer should be applied before applying makeup. The correct way to apply moisturizer is to apply cream in large quantities. Do not rub the moisturizer on the skin, but massage it with light hands.
