- Start with clean, slightly damp skin: After showering, bathing, washing your hands, or cleansing your face, gently pat the skin dry. Leave a little moisture on the surface to help the cream spread easily and seal in hydration.
- Warm a small amount between your fingertips: Skin Rescue Cream is rich and concentrated, so begin with a modest amount. Gently warm it between clean fingertips or palms before applying.
- Smooth over dry or uncomfortable areas: Apply to skin that feels dry, tight, rough, flaky, or in need of extra comfort. Use slow, gentle strokes rather than vigorous rubbing, particularly on sensitive or reactive-feeling areas.
- Build coverage where needed: Begin with a thin, even layer and allow it to absorb. Add a little more to especially dry areas such as hands, elbows, knees, heels, or patches exposed to frequent washing and harsh weather.
- Use on face and body: Apply wherever your skin needs lasting moisture and botanical care. When using it on the face, avoid the immediate eye area and use a lighter amount beneath makeup or daytime skincare.
- Reapply whenever skin feels dry: Use throughout the day as needed, especially after hand washing, bathing, swimming, shaving, or exposure to cold air, wind, indoor heating, or air conditioning.
- Continue as part of your daily routine: Apply morning and evening—or whenever your skin asks for more moisture—to help maintain a softer, smoother, more comfortable feel.
- Apply shortly after washing: Using the cream while the skin is still slightly damp can help reduce water loss and improve moisture retention.
Pro Tips
Apply while skin is slightly damp: This helps the rich cream glide more easily across the skin and hold onto moisture.
Start small and layer: A little goes a long way. Apply a light layer first, then add more only where your skin needs it.
Smooth rather than rub: Use gentle strokes in the direction of hair growth, especially when skin feels delicate, itchy, or reactive.
Keep it close to the sink: Apply after hand washing to help frequently washed hands feel soft and comfortable. Moisturizing after washing is particularly useful for dry hands.
Use clean hands: Scoop cream from the jar with freshly washed, dry hands or a clean cosmetic spatula to help protect the remaining product.
Introduce it carefully to highly sensitive skin: The formula contains botanical extracts and naturally aromatic essential oils. Test a small area first if your skin is highly reactive or sensitive to botanical fragrance. Customers who prefer an unscented formula may find Naked Rescue Cream more suitable.
Pair it with gentler cleansing: Follow Skin Rescue Shower Gelée with Skin Rescue Cream while the skin is still slightly damp for a moisture-conscious body-care routine. The cream is formulated for use on both the face and body.
