Tips & Warnings
When you are applying your cream use a clean tool such as a q-tip, small spatula, etc to avoid bacterias entering into cream which can cause infections.
If you wear contact lens, it is best to apply cream sparingly and let soak into your skin at least 10-15 minutes before putting on lens. Extra cream can cause your lens to fog up.
