This cream is particularly effective when applied to damp skin, ideally within a few minutes of showering or bathing. The light protective layer formed by ingredients like shea butter helps to seal in the moisture already on your skin. Its rich texture makes it well-suited for evening use as part of a body care routine, giving it time to absorb fully.
For application, a small amount is usually sufficient due to its density. Start with a pea-sized portion for an area like your hand or elbow, warming it slightly between your palms before smoothing it on. You can adjust based on the size of the area and your skin's needs. It's designed for use on intact skin over the body, avoiding the eye area. If you have known sensitivities, a patch test on a small area of skin first is recommended. If any irritation occurs, discontinue use.
