What is the role of a lotion?
Lotions, also known as toners, are skin care products designed to balance the skin's pH, remove cleanser residue, and prepare the skin to absorb other products. They act as an essential basis for optimizing the effectiveness of subsequent care.

Lotions (Toners):
Lotions, often slightly astringent, are intended to restore the skin's natural pH. They can vary based on their ingredients, offering hydration, exfoliation or oil control depending on the skin's needs.
Mists:
The mists, in spray form, provide a feeling of freshness and hydration. They may contain various beneficial ingredients such as thermal water, plant extracts, or vitamins, providing rapid revitalization.
Species:
Essences fall between toners and serums in terms of consistency. They hydrate deeply, provide essential nutrients, and prepare the skin to absorb more concentrated treatments.
How to use lotion on the face?
Applying lotion is simple. After cleansing the face, apply the lotion by gently tapping onto the skin using a cotton pad. Make sure to cover your entire face, avoiding the eye area.
Why use facial lotion?
Lotions offer several benefits, such as balancing pH, removing residue, and preparing the skin to absorb other products. They also help to keep the skin hydrated, radiant and ready to face daily aggressions.
When to use facial lotion?
Incorporate the lotion into your morning and evening routine, after cleansing and before applying serums or creams. This ensures prepared skin, receptive to the benefits of other products.
Do you need to rinse?
Most lotions are designed to be left on the skin without rinsing. However, it is essential to follow the specific product instructions. Generally, if the lotion is intended to stay on the skin, it is recommended to leave it on for optimal results.
