Look for creams loaded with ceramides, shea butter, squalane, and hyaluronic acid. These aren't just buzzwords. Ceramides actually patch up microscopic cracks in your skin, while shea butter seals moisture in. Hyaluronic acid can hold up to 1,000 times its weight in water, so it's a safe bet for truly dry patches.
It's easy to assume more is better, but slathering on too much can clog pores—especially if you have combination or breakout-prone skin. Some creams feel greasy and never sink in. That usually means the formula's wrong for your skin type or has too much petrolatum or mineral oil.
Start with clean, slightly damp skin. Use a pea-sized amount and warm it between your fingers before pressing gently onto your cheeks, forehead, and chin. Let it absorb for a minute before layering SPF or makeup. If your skin still feels tight, it's okay to add another thin layer at night.
Read the ingredient list. Skip creams with artificial fragrance, parabens, or silicones if you're sensitive. Look for plant-based oils and butters—these tend to absorb better and feel more comfortable over time.
We blend botanicals and science for face creams that feel rich, absorb fast, and leave your skin soft all day. Our formulas are vegan, cruelty-free, and skip the nasty stuff. Find the right match for your skin at Lotus Botanicals.
1. Can a heavy face cream cause breakouts?
Yes, if the formula contains pore-clogging ingredients or if you use too much. Look for non-comedogenic options and apply sparingly.
2. Is havy face cream suitable for oily skin?
It depends on the ingredients. Lightweight oils like squalane can hydrate without greasiness. Patch testing helps find what works for you.
3. How often should I use a heavy face cream?
Most people use it once or twice daily, especially at night. If your skin feels oily during the day, stick to evenings or switch to a lighter formula.
4. What's the difference between heavy and light face creams?
Heavy creams have more occlusive and emollient ingredients, making them richer and better for dry or barrier-compromised skin.
5. Why does my skin feel greasy after applying face cream?
You might be using too much or the cream has oils that don't suit your skin. Try using less, or switch to a formula with faster-absorbing ingredients.
6. Can I layer heavy face cream with other products?
Absolutely. Apply after lighter serums, then wait a minute before sunscreen or makeup. That way, everything absorbs properly.
7. Are Lotus Botanicals face creams good for sensitive skin?
Yes, our formulas are free from artificial fragrance, parabens, and silicones, making them a gentle option for sensitive skin types.
8. Is it okay to use heavy face cream in summer?
If your skin feels dry even in summer, go for it. Just use less and choose creams with lighter plant oils instead of thick butters.
9. Can I use heavy face cream under makeup?
Definitely. Just let it absorb for a minute before applying foundation or concealer. It can actually help makeup go on smoother.
10. Do Lotus Botanicals creams contain vegan ingredients?
Yes, all our face creams are 100% vegan and cruelty-free, using plant-based butters and oils for hydration.
