Can I apply moisturizer after a facial?

Yes, you can and should apply moisturizer after a facial. Facials often involve treatments that cleanse, exfoliate, and sometimes extract impurities from your skin, which can leave it temporarily more sensitive and in need of hydration. Using a gentle, non-comedogenic moisturizer helps to lock in the benefits of the facial, soothing and hydrating your skin. It also creates a protective barrier that can help prevent moisture loss and shield your skin from environmental stressors. Opt for a moisturizer that complements your skin type and any specific treatments you received during the facial. Following your esthetician’s advice on aftercare can further enhance the results and keep your skin looking and feeling its best.
