Q: How often should i moisturise my face?
It is recommended to include a moisturiser to your skincare routine, applying it to your face twice daily, once in the morning and once before sleep. This will ensure your skin stays moisturised throughout the day and also whilst you are sleeping. Applying a face cream prevents skin dryness which is a common skin concern. Face moisturisers also protect the skin against environmental pollution and extreme climates.
Q: In what order should you moisturize your face?
The first step in a skincare routine should begin with a face cleanser. This will be to wash away any dirt and impurities on the face. Follow this with a face serum that is used to target specific concerns. You then want to apply an eye cream to plump and firm the skin around the eyes. Finally, you can apply moisturiser as the last step in the skincare routine.
Q: How to apply moisturiser on the face?
When applying moisturiser, begin by squeezing a small drop or sweeping up a tiny amount of product into clean fingers. Lightly rub the face cream in circular motions all over the face until it is absorbed. If you are using a Garnier night cream like our Hyaluronic Acid Night Cream that can be used overnight then apply this product more generously on the skin.
Q: What happens if you don't moisturise your face?
Firstly when you don't moisturise your face, your skin can become more dry causing flakiness and the appearance of dull skin. Without regular moisturizing, your skin can develop more wrinkles over time as face creams help the skin remain plump and youthful. Other things that can happen also include increased spots or acne which can be caused by the skin not being protected by a face moisturiser from the elements.
