Usage Tips from Beauty Time:

• The Beauty Time team recommends applying the essence after toner and before cream, following the routine from the lightest to the thickest texture.
• For dry skin or dehydrated skin, apply the essence to slightly damp skin, then follow with a moisturizer to help lock in moisture.
• Start with a small amount; the texture spreads easily, and the skin does not need a thick layer to receive the desired care.
• To improve the appearance of dullness, focus on daily consistency rather than using a large amount in a single application.
• If your skin is highly sensitive or you have not used fermented skincare products before, first test the product on a small area for several days.
• When using it in the morning, do not skip broad-spectrum sunscreen; it is an essential step to help prevent dark spots and uneven skin tone from worsening.
• If your main goal is evening out skin tone, it can be combined with a balanced routine containing products designed for pigmentation, while avoiding layering too many active ingredients at once.
• A second light layer can be applied to areas affected by dryness or noticeable dullness instead of applying a large amount to the entire face.
• Avoid rubbing the skin harshly during application; gentle patting is enough to help with absorption.
• If you use strong exfoliants or retinoids, make sure to support your routine with good hydration and a barrier-supporting moisturizer when needed.
• For oily skin, do not automatically skip moisturizer; choose a lightweight moisturizer after the essence if your skin needs it.
• If irritation appears after introducing the product along with several new skincare products, return to a simple routine, then introduce products one at a time to identify the cause.
• Beauty Time recommends patience when targeting uneven skin tone and dullness; improvement in these concerns is usually gradual with regular use.
