ELI5: Why it's supposed to massage the face cream using a circular motion? ( often upward motion too)

.. it's not absorbed well if it's massaged.. let's say horizontally?

Or else it gets the hose again.



Horizontal or vertical massage is less likely to spread evenly, also the massaging itself is beneficial (potentially more beneficial than the cream, some studies have suggested its daily massage thay actually helps the skin long term not the cream at all).
