The very first thing you need to check is the skincare step!!
How well you controlled the amount and ensured absorption during the skincare step, as well as whether your skin heated up, determines the next step!!
I'm going to share my summer skincare tips ᰔᩚ
1. Use pads > thin serum
Doing pads, toner, and then serum can be excessive, so I skip the toner step. For the serum, I also use a very light, watery formula rather than a product packed with multiple functions! Products with lots of good ingredients can absorb slowly or feel heavy, so I usually use them in the evening.
2. Absorbs without raising body temperature
-> At every step, please gently pat it in with your fingertips for a long time to aid absorption, rather than using your palms or knuckles!! It might feel a bit stuffy, but this is a very, very important step that allows for absorption without causing any heat to rise!!
3. Use a Daiso brush
-> I use this brush designed for face masks! People usually do their skincare with their hands or a puff, but hands get hot, and puffs tend to absorb all the product ( ′̥̥̥ ˙̫ ‵̥̥̥ ). So I bought this product to try, and as you can see in the picture, applying small amounts along the skin texture makes it easy to control the amount because you can see the product. It was also great because the brush didn't absorb too much product and didn't get hot easily!! Even if you wonder if this is enough, you can always add more if needed, so please just apply small amounts first (ᐡ•̥ •̥ᐡ)♡
Of course, after applying it with a brush, patting it in with your fingertips to aid absorption is essential!!
Achieve beautiful skin that doesn't smudge in the hot summer (*•̀ᴗ•́*)و ̑̑
