Then, dry your skin and place a few drops of the serum in your hands.

Apply the product to your face with a light circular massage. Start from the inside and gradually move outwards.

Ideally, you can even spray a little thermal water on your skin just before application: this facilitates the penetration of moisturizing active ingredients.

Use your product in the evening before going to sleep: it will then have plenty of time to take effect, without being disturbed by the application of other products or by the pollution your face may encounter daily.

If it's relevant for you, you can combine the use of an anti-wrinkle product with an anti-spot product, every night.
