Step-by-Step Instructions

Follow these steps for effective moisturizing:

  1. 1
    Cleanse Your Skin
    Start with AMVital Turmeric Cleanser or Turmeric Soap. Pat face completely dry before next steps.
  2. 2
    Tone (Optional but Recommended)
    Apply Turmeric Toner and allow 30-60 seconds to absorb fully. This preps skin for better cream absorption.
  3. 3
    Apply Serum (Optional but Recommended)
    Smooth on 2-4 drops of Turmeric Serum and wait ~60 seconds for complete absorption before cream.
  4. 4
    Dispense Right Amount of Cream
    Use pea-sized amount for oily skin, almond-sized for normal/dry skin. Adjust based on your dryness level and season.
  5. 5
    Warm Between Fingertips
    Rub cream between fingertips for 3-5 seconds. This warms formula for easier spreading and better absorption.
  6. 6
    Massage Over Face and Neck
    Apply using gentle upward strokes (never drag downward). Cover entire face, neck, and décolletage. Press into skin for absorption.
  7. 7
    Adjust for Skin Type
    Combination skin: use thinner layer on oily T-zone, extra on dry cheeks. Oily skin: light layer everywhere. Dry skin: generous application.
  8. 8
    Finish Morning Routine with SPF
    If AM use, wait 2-3 minutes for cream to absorb, then apply broad-spectrum SPF 30+ as final step. Mandatory for brightening routine.
For combination skin, apply thinner layer on T-zone and touch extra on drier areas. On self-care nights, pair with Turmeric Vitamin C Clay Mask 2-3× weekly—apply cream right after rinsing mask.

Complete Layering Guide

Morning Routine Order

  2. Tone: Turmeric Toner (wait 30-60 sec)
  3. Treat: Turmeric Serum (wait 60 sec)

Layering Rules

  • Cream Always AFTER Serum: Never before—thicker products block thinner ones
  • Wait Between Layers: Let each product absorb before next (30-60 seconds minimum)
  • Cream BEFORE SPF: Sunscreen is always final step in morning
  • Oil Goes AFTER Cream: If using face oil, it seals everything including cream
  • Don't Skip Steps: Each layer preps skin for next—complete routine works best

How Much Cream to Use

By Skin Type

  • Oily Skin: Pea-sized amount (less is more)
  • Combination Skin: Small almond-sized (vary by zone)
  • Normal Skin: Almond-sized amount
  • Dry Skin: Large almond-sized (generous layer)
  • Very Dry/Winter: Add second thin layer after first absorbs

By Coverage Area

  • Face Only: Pea to small almond size
  • Face + Neck: Almond size
  • Face + Neck + Décolletage: Large almond to small walnut
  • Pro Tip: Better to start small and add more than waste product
  • One Jar Lasts: 6-8 weeks with twice-daily use

Application Techniques

✅ CORRECT: Upward & Outward Method

  • Warm cream between fingertips for 3-5 seconds
  • Dot cream on forehead, cheeks, nose, chin
  • Spread using upward and outward strokes (fights gravity)
  • Massage gently from center of face toward hairline
  • Neck: stroke upward from collarbone to jawline
  • Press into skin with flat palms for final absorption
  • Let hands rest on face for 5 seconds to seal warmth

❌ AVOID: Common Mistakes

  • Don't drag downward—causes sagging over time
  • Don't pull or tug—damages delicate skin
  • Don't apply too much—causes pilling and greasiness
  • Don't skip neck—it ages faster than face
  • Don't forget to warm cream first—absorbs poorly when cold
  • Don't apply to wet skin—dilutes formula effectiveness
For extra absorption boost, apply cream to slightly damp skin (not wet). Mist face with toner or thermal water, then immediately apply cream while skin is still tacky.

Special Strategy: Combination Skin

Custom application for different zones:

T-Zone (Oily Areas: Forehead, Nose, Chin)

  • Use very thin layer—less than pea-sized for entire T-zone
  • Spread lightly with fingertips
  • Don't press in heavily—light touch only
  • If too shiny, blot gently with tissue after 5 minutes

U-Zone (Dry Areas: Cheeks, Jawline, Temples)

  • Use generous layer—almond-sized for both cheeks
  • Massage in thoroughly
  • Can add second thin layer if still feels tight
  • Don't forget temples and jawline—often dry

Seasonal Adjustments

  • Summer: Lighter application everywhere, skip second layer
  • Winter: Heavier application, may need second layer or face oil on top
  • Spring/Fall: Adjust based on daily weather and indoor heating/AC

💡 Key Takeaway

For best results with AMVital Turmeric Cream, always apply as final moisturizing step AFTER serums but BEFORE SPF (in morning). Warm pea-to-almond-sized amount between fingertips for 3-5 seconds before applying—this crucial step ensures better spreading and absorption. Massage over face and neck using gentle upward strokes (never drag downward which fights gravity). For combination skin, use thinner layer on oily T-zone and generous layer on dry cheeks. Wait 2-3 minutes for full absorption before applying SPF in morning. Use twice daily (AM and PM) consistently for maximum hydration and brightening benefits. Non-greasy formula absorbs to soft finish without heaviness. Can layer face oil on top at night for extra nourishment. One jar lasts 6-8 weeks with proper twice-daily use. Most users see improved hydration, softer texture, and brighter more even-looking complexion within 1-2 weeks of consistent use.

Important Tips & Safety

  • Warm cream first: 3-5 seconds between fingertips for better absorption
  • Apply to dry skin: Not wet—water dilutes formula and reduces effectiveness
  • Upward strokes only: Never drag downward which causes sagging
  • Wait before SPF: Give cream 2-3 minutes to absorb fully in morning
  • Don't over-apply: More product doesn't mean better results—causes greasiness
  • Cover neck always: Neck skin is thin and ages faster—needs moisture too
  • Adjust by season: Use less in summer, more in winter
  • Patch test first: Test on inner arm 24 hours before face if sensitive
  • Store properly: Keep lid tight, away from heat and direct sunlight
  • Use within 12 months: After opening for maximum potency

Frequently Asked Questions

How much should I use?
Start with pea-sized amount for oily skin, almond-sized for normal/dry skin. Add more only where you feel dry. Better to start small and add more than waste product. Amount varies by coverage area and season.
Will it feel greasy?
No—it's designed to absorb to a soft, non-greasy finish. If you have very oily skin, use thinner layer on T-zone. If still feels greasy, you're using too much. The formula absorbs within 2-3 minutes when applied correctly.
Should I use it in morning or night?
Both! Use twice daily for best results. Morning: follow with SPF 30+ after cream absorbs (2-3 minutes). Night: cream is final step after serums, or add face oil on top for extra nourishment.
Can I use it with actives like vitamin C or retinol?
Yes! Apply cream AFTER all treatment serums (vitamin C, retinol, acids). Cream goes on as moisturizing step to seal everything in. If your skin is very sensitive to actives, you can alternate strong treatments on different nights.
Is it suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, the formula is gentle and suitable for sensitive skin. Patch test on inner arm for 24 hours first if you have very reactive skin. Introduce gradually—once daily for first week, then increase to twice daily if tolerated well.
Can I use it under makeup?
Absolutely! It layers beautifully under makeup. Wait 2-3 minutes after applying cream, then apply SPF, then wait another 2 minutes before makeup. The non-greasy finish provides perfect base for foundation and doesn't cause pilling.
Do I need to use toner and serum before cream?
Not required but highly recommended for best results. Toner preps skin for better absorption. Serum delivers concentrated actives. Cream seals everything in. The complete layered routine produces significantly better results than cream alone.
Can I use face oil with this cream?
Yes! At night, apply Turmeric Face Oil AFTER cream for extra nourishment and sealing. Oil always goes last. Don't use oil in morning unless you have very dry skin—can interfere with SPF and makeup.
Will it clog my pores?
No, it's non-comedogenic and formulated not to clog pores. Safe for acne-prone skin. If you do break out, you may be using too much—reduce amount especially on T-zone. Ensure you're cleansing properly before application.
When will I see results?
Immediate: Skin feels soft and hydrated after first use. Week 1-2: Improved hydration, softer texture, smoother appearance. Week 2-4: Brighter, more even-looking complexion. Best results: 4-6 weeks of consistent twice-daily use with complete routine.
