A Step-by-Step Guide on How to Use Lotion P50

1. Start With a Clean Base

Before learning how to apply Lotion P50 (or any skincare product), always start with a clean face! We recommend using Biologique Recherche’s all-natural cleansers and cleansing milk to get rid of impurities that build up over the day. By cleansing before application, you clear your skin of any reactive elements and create a clean canvas where Lotion P50 can work as intended. Lait VIP O2 is a fantastic choice that’s suitable for all skin types. As a bonus, it leaves the skin reoxygenated and ready for the next step!

2. Apply Toner

Now, it’s time to apply your Lotion P50 toner! Most people find that the best approach is to soak a cotton pad in the toner and then pat it all over the face, neck, and décolleté in an upward motion. When learning how to use Lotion P50, it’s important to avoid overstimulation. Despite its label as an “exfoliant,” you want to be gentle when using your chosen P50 product. Never rub into your skin – dab until and leave to dry. Don’t worry if you notice stinging, numbness, or redness. Those sensations are completely normal and a big reason why fans love this stuff!

3. Soothe Irritated Skin With Oxygenating Mist

If your skin doesn’t feel irritated, dry, or overly sensitive, you can choose to skip this step. If your skin matches any of the descriptions above, however, we recommend using L’Eauxygenante oxygenating mist. This handy product soothes, refreshes, and hydrates the skin to reduce any redness caused by Lotion P50’s application.

4. Apply Serum

At this point in your skincare routine, it’s no longer about how to apply Lotion P50, but, rather, how you can help your skin gain the enormous benefits of this miracle product. While you can apply P50 and be done, various skincare products are available to help nourish and support your skin after P50’s application. For example, Biologique Recherche offers a wide range of serums – including water-based favorites and powerhouse all-natural finishing serums – that can help support your unique needs.

From dry skin to acne and signs of aging, serums are an important, nutrient-packed essential skin care product of any skincare regimen! For example, if you suffer from hyperpigmentation signs, you may choose to follow your P50 application with a dose of Serum PIGM 400. If you struggle with chronic rosacea, Serum Erythros can help visibly reduce redness and soothe inflammation. As when learning how to use Lotion P50, be gentle when applying your targeted serums. Gently massage a few drops of your chosen product onto the face, neck, and décolleté, and wait two minutes before applying a finishing serum and moisturizer.

5. Moisturize

A crucial step in any routine, applying face and eye creams helps keep your skin hydrated and locks in all the benefits of Lotion P50’s powerful ingredients. We recommend starting with a natural under-eye cream, such as Creme Contour VIP O2. Next, apply a natural skin cream or Biologique Recherche moisturizer of your choice. The type of moisturizer you use will depend on your skin type and specific skin care needs. For example, Gel ADN Silkgen is a fantastic option for all skin types if you want a light and airy gel. On the other hand, Creme Dermo-RL is great for dry skin that needs a little extra moisture.

6. Seal Skin With a Finishing Serum

Made with larger molecules than other serums, finishing serums help to seal the skin so the products you already applied stay locked in for deeper, longer-lasting penetration. Finishing serums also help to protect your skin from exterior elements that cause damage. Like how you apply Lotion P50, use gentle upward motions when applying your serum. Fluide VIP 02 and Le Grand Serum are wonderful (and popular!) choices among BR’s fans.

7. Use a Sun Protection Cream

No matter how you use Lotion P50, there’s one thing every luxury skincare brand fan should have in their daily skincare routine: Sunscreen! Lotion P50 can make your skin more sensitive to the sun’s rays. That’s why it’s important to use sunblock to prevent discoloration and pigmentation associated with sun exposure. Even if you don’t plan on sunbathing, it’s still important to protect yourself from short and long-term skin damage – sun damage is one of the number one causes of premature aging after all!
