I'm just wondering about how long I should let my hands be idle after applying the Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream and Propysalic NF6. Since I need to use them several times a day, I'd like to know so I can plan out my day better. Any advice on that?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Always wash your hands before and after applying the cream, especially if using it on areas that may touch your face or eyes. If you are applying Propysalic NF6 on specific areas of the body (e.g., hands, arms, or legs), its important to avoid contact with clothing or fabrics immediately after application, as it could transfer.
