Moisturizing Memo

When moisturizing your face, don't forget your neck! The skin here is very delicate and wrinkles as easily as your face.
During summer months, try a tinted moisturizer instead of using foundation. These are available in shades that range from cool beige to deep tan, and are applied just like a normal moisturizer.
The cheapest moisturizer you can buy is petroleum jelly. You can improve its heavy texture by adding a few drops of witchhazel to the jar and then whipping it until it turns fluffy and white.
Moisturizers that contain sunscreens are often expensive. If using a separate sunscreen, apply it before your moisturizer. When choosing a sunscreen, look for one with a similar texture to your moisturizer.
Little and often is the best way to apply a moisturizer. If your skin feels dry at midday, apply wherever you feel the need.

Use often Apply whenever you feel the need, not just at night and first thing in the morning. Choose a product with an added sunscreen, but don't waste money on special ingredients which can't be absorbed by the skin, despite the manufacturers' claims.

Pat on gently The eye area in particular needs careful treatment, so don't use a product so heavy that it drags the skin. For the lightest touch, dot moisturizer on around the eye area, then pat it into the skin with your middle fingers.

Apply a little at a time If you use too much it will feel too greasy on your skin, attracting dirt and possibly causing spots. If your skin is dry, apply all over the face until skin feels smooth but not greasy. If you have an oily centre panel, apply to the drier outer parts of the face only, dotting on the cheekbones and blending Outwards.
