Don't add to your morning routine. How to use summer oils and mists.

On hot mornings, we want to get ready as lightly and quickly as possible. However, if you don't apply anything after washing your face, you may feel dryness in an air-conditioned room. On summer mornings, instead of adding to your routine, adjust the amount to keep it small.

In the morning, don't assume your skin's condition.

Immediately after waking up, your skin may feel sticky due to sebum and night sweats. After washing your face, check your skin to see if your cheeks and mouth feel tight, or if your forehead and nose still feel heavy.

You don't need to apply the same amount to your entire face. Differentiate between areas that tend to be dry and areas that tend to produce sebum.

Spread 2-3 drops of oil thinly.

Take 2-3 drops of Universal Oil into your palm and spread it thinly over both hands. Gently press and blend it into your cheeks, eyes, and mouth, then apply the remaining amount to your forehead and neck.

The key to a light finish on summer mornings is not to increase the amount from the start. If necessary, layer a small amount only on the areas that need more.

Layer moisture with a mist.

After the oil, apply Watery Serum Mist to your entire face. Spray it like a fine mist and gently pat it in with your palms.

If you plan to apply makeup immediately, wait for the surface moisture to settle before moving on to the next step. Avoid rubbing and allow a little time for it to absorb into your skin.

After washing your face, gently pat away moisture with a towel.
Apply 1 drop of oil, blending it from your cheeks, eyes, and mouth.
Layer the mist over your entire face.
Once the surface has settled, proceed with UV care or makeup.

Ease of continuation is also a function of care.

If your morning routine is complicated, you'll want to skip it on busy days. Even with fewer steps, by setting the amount and order, you can easily adapt to your daily skin condition.
