This cream is designed to be the final step of your skincare routine, after the skin has been cleansed and after any lighter products such as toners or serums have been applied. Start with a clean, dry face. Take a small amount — roughly the size of a pea — and warm it between your fingertips for a few seconds. The warmth makes the dense texture easier to spread. Then press it gently into the skin rather than rubbing it in hard, so the nourishing layer sits evenly.
You can use it in the morning, in the evening, or both, depending on how dry your skin feels. In the morning, it can serve as a base before makeup if you want a smoother surface. In the evening, it can be the last layer before sleep. If your skin is very reactive, test a small amount on a limited area first and stop if irritation increases.
If you use other products like a sunscreen or a lighter moisturizer, apply them first, wait a minute or two for them to absorb, and then finish with this cream. The richer texture helps lock in the moisture from the earlier steps. If you find the cream too rich for daytime, you can reserve it for the evening and use a lighter product in the morning.
