How to use: Cosrx Centella Blemish Cream

1. Amount to use:
– Use enough to cover the affected area, but not necessarily applying it all over the face.

2. Application method:
Apply a thick layer as the product is intended to be used as an intensive spot treatment. But the product potentially leaves a white cast when applied thickly.

3. Where to apply:
– The product is meant to be used as a targeted spot treatment rather than an all-over face cream.

Additional information:

1. Timing:
– Best used as a nighttime treatment due to the potential white cast.

2. Order in skincare routine:
– Apply after cleansing, toning, and using serum.
– Use a moisturizer before applying this cream, as it’s not intended to replace your regular moisturizer.

3. Frequency:
– While not specified, it’s generally advisable to start with less frequent use (perhaps once or twice a week) and gradually increase as your skin tolerates it.

4. Precautions:
– As with any new skincare product, it’s wise to patch test before full application, especially if you have sensitive skin.
– If using during the day, be sure to follow up with sunscreen, as some ingredients may increase sun sensitivity.

Important Notes:

1. Not a moisturizer – use a moisturizer before applying this cream
2. May leave a white cast if applied too thickly
3. Has been tested for irritation
4. No spatula included in packaging

Remember, everyone’s skin is different, so pay attention to how your skin responds and adjust usage accordingly. If you experience any irritation or adverse reactions, discontinue use and consult with a dermatologist or skincare professional.

As with any skincare product, especially those targeting sensitive or troubled skin, it’s advisable to patch test before full application and to introduce it gradually into your skincare routine.
