A balm’s texture is part of the application. Warming a small amount in your palms makes it easier to spread evenly and keep the movement comfortable. You should be able to guide the product across your skin without pulling.
Avressia’s application sequence moves from the base of the bust across the chest, towards the opposite shoulders, then along the neck to the chin. This guide breaks that sequence into manageable steps.
Prepare your hands, skin, and product
Begin with clean hands and intact skin. Remove daily residue as needed and pat the area gently. Keep your jar and any applicator clean and dry.
Health Canada recommends following cosmetic directions, using clean hands, avoiding added water, and storing cosmetics away from direct heat and sunlight. Apply those basic handling habits to your balm each time you use it.
Before introducing a new product more broadly, consider a small-area tolerance test. The American Academy of Dermatology recommends testing a skincare product on a small area before adding it to your routine. A successful home test cannot guarantee that you will never react.
Step 1. Warm a small amount
Avressia’s general application guide begins with a small, pea-sized amount. Warm it between your palms until you can spread it as a thin layer. Check the current product directions for the amount and frequency appropriate to your use.
Take care with the phrase pea-sized. It is a practical visual guide, not a laboratory measurement. Use the product’s directions as your reference and avoid assuming that a larger scoop will produce a better outcome.
Step 2. Begin at the base of the bust
Rest your palms at the base of the breasts. Glide slowly upwards between the breasts in a continuous movement. Keep your hands relaxed and let the warmed balm provide slip.
Your skin should not bunch or drag beneath your palms. If the movement is uncomfortable, pause. Do not continue by pressing harder. A comfortable application is the priority.
Step 3. Sweep towards the opposite shoulders
Move your right hand across the chest towards your left shoulder. Then move your left hand towards your right shoulder. Work at a pace that lets you distribute the product evenly.
Use broad contact with your hand rather than pinching the skin with your fingertips. There is no need to turn the gesture into a forceful massage. The sequence is a way to apply the product, rather than proof that pressure changes breast position.
Step 4. Continue across the collarbones
From the upper chest, continue past the collarbones and along the neck towards the chin, following the product’s intended application area. Keep the pressure comfortable throughout.
Give attention to even coverage. If you notice one area has a thick coating and another has none, distribute the existing product before taking more from the jar.
Step 5. Let the texture settle
Avressia’s current directions suggest allowing two to three minutes before dressing in fine fabrics. Treat that as a practical pause to check the finish against your skin and clothing.
A persistent heavy layer may be a reason to review the amount you used. Keep the product away from clothing until you are comfortable with how it wears. Oil-rich products can mark some fabrics, so use care with garments you value.
Fit the application into your day
Choose a time when you can complete the full sequence without rushing. Keep the balm beside the skincare products you already use so the new step is easy to remember. Follow the product’s stated frequency rather than creating additional applications to compensate for a missed one.
If you use the balm in the morning, keep sunscreen as a separate step on exposed skin. Follow the sunscreen label and avoid mixing it with the balm. For a complete routine, read the bust and décolletage skincare guide.
Application questions
Should I feel tingling or heat?
Those sensations are not evidence that the product is working. If you develop irritation, stop using it and seek advice if symptoms persist.
Can I apply it after a procedure or during breastfeeding?
Ask your treating clinician to review the complete formula and confirm where and when you may apply it. Do not infer clearance from a general skincare application guide.
Where can I check the current instructions?
Use the directions on your product and Avressia’s How to Use page. If you need clarification, contact Avressia client care.
