In order to maintain our skin supple, soft, beautiful and healthy we need to use cosmetic creams. Along with knowing your skin type and what types of creams you should be using for your skin it is essential to know how to apply the creams correctly. All the different parts of our bodies require different attention and methods for applying the creams (whether its for moisturixing, reducing wrinkles or lifting the skin)

Let's take a look at how we should be applying our lotions and creams:

After taking a shower:

Always start applying moisturizing cream from your feet working your way up to your neck using circular motions.

Face Creams:

Any moisturizing, anti-aging or skin nourishing creams need to be applied with your flat hand using the palms of your hands, spreading the creams over your face covering the cheekbones, chin and your forehead.

Face Serums:

Apply face serums at least once a week as they are very important when it comes to sealing the skin hydrating benefits from the toner deep into your skin. Apply the serum after the toner and allow your skin to full absorb it before you add your moisturizer.

Eye Creams:

The skin around your eyes is super sensitive and it is essential that you take good care of it tomaintain it in a good condition.When you apply cream to this area always use your ring finger. When applying cream to your eyelida in oreder to avoid eyelid sagging it is essential to start from the bottom of your eye lid and move your way up until you reach your brow bone.

Apply moisturizing creams over your body to keep skin supple, smooth and preserve elasticity.

Neck and Chest Creams:

The neck and chest area of your body has poor sebaceous glands and not enough muscular support as the rest of your body so it need special care to avoid wrinkle rings around this neck and cheat part. Apply the same creams that you do for your face in this area. Use circular motions starting from the neck and moving your way up, never apply the cream using a horizontal motion. Try not to pull your chin down to stopsagging in this area of your body. If you have started to notice wrinkles forming in this part of your body, immediately start applying skin nourishing creams day and night to help keep skin toned and smooth.

Slimming Gels and Anti-Cellulite Creams:

Always apply these gels and creams following a hot shower. Work the cream into the skin in circular motions, let it dry for a few minutes before putting clothes on.

Body Oils:

Body oils are a superb way of keeping out skin elastic and soft and preventing dryness. After a shower apply some oil between your hands and rub it all over your body. use a clean towel to pat your skin dry and you will immediately notice how soft your skin is.
