How to apply skin care products
December 21, 2009 by Jo
- Cleanse your skin before applying treatments or moisturisers. Use lukewarm water and wash gently
to avoid stripping the skin of natural oils. This is true for oily skins as well. Pat dry gently.
- Apply after cleansing when the skin is still moist to better retain moisture and hydrate the skin.
- Use a moisturiser that effectively plumps and hydrates the skin and has ingredients called humectants that draw moisture from the air to provide long lasting hydration.
- Use the third and fourth fingers to apply products – this will provide less pressure and therefore less drag and pull on the skin.
- Warm skin absorbs moisturiser more effectively – apply a warm towel or wash in warm water first.
