Applying moisturizer to your skin may seem simple, but did you know that the way you apply it can significantly impact its effectiveness? Applying moisturizer the right way ensures optimal hydration and protects the skin from dryness and premature wrinkles. Here's the ideal method:
Steps to apply moisturizer correctly
- Apply moisturizer to damp skin: Instead of waiting until your skin is completely dry after washing, apply moisturizer when your skin is still slightly damp. This helps better lock in moisture and maximizes the effectiveness of the product's active ingredients.
- Use appropriate amounts: Don't rely on excessive amounts; a small amount, evenly distributed, is sufficient for great results.
- Use gentle circular motions: Massage the moisturizer in upward circular motions, which promotes blood circulation and helps the product be fully absorbed.

Why is applying moisturizer to damp skin the best option?
Many women make a common mistake by letting their skin dry completely before applying moisturizer. This leads to a loss of moisture from the skin, also known as "transepidermal water loss." When moisturizer is applied to damp skin, it:
- Locks moisture into the skin.
- Helps active ingredients like argan oil and shea butter to be absorbed more effectively.
- Gives you smooth, radiant skin that lasts all day long.
