How to Apply Moisturizers

Moisturizers are not good for the skin. Whenever someone says, “I have sensitive skin,” it is usually because they are abusing moisturizers. What constitutes moisturizer abuse? Using a moisturizer every day. This is actually bad for the skin, and does not add any “moisture” to the skin. The best moisturizers are Retin-A (or Bare Skin™ Rejuvenation Serum) and drinking water. Dr. Bollmann recommends moisturizers only for dry skin.The proper way to apply creams and lotions is to use a small spatula and remove the ingredients (about the size of a dime) onto it, because we handle all kinds of objects that contain germs and we don’t want to contaminate the ingredients. I all-ways wash my hands and face before I use a cream or lotion. the water gets into the pours and stays there and when you use an moisturizing ingredient it seals in the moisture in your skin and that helps re-hydrate your skin.

How to Apply Moisturizer to European Waxed Legs

Leg waxing is an inexpensive and effective way to remove unsightly hair from legs. It will keep legs smooth for weeks and, if used long-term, will eventually slow down overall hair growth in this area. Because this type of hair removal opens pores by pulling hairs from the root, it can cause ingrown hairs, redness and irritation. However, moisturizing will minimize these minor complications and leave legs supple.

Quick and Easy Moisturizing Tips

Choose an oil-free, water-based moisturizer for oily skin.

Choose a thick, oil-based moisturizer for exceptionally dry skin.

Pick a moisturizer that contains a low level of sunscreen, like SPF 15. It keeps your skin soft and smooth while preventing the negative effects of harmful UV rays.

Strengthen your skin by choosing moisturizers that contain Vitamin A and Vitamin E.

Tips to optimize your facial moisturizer

You may have read about this but you may not know why this is important.  Applying moisturizer to a damp face helps to lock in the water from the upper layers of the skin, preventing evaporation.   If you’re using a toner, always leave your toner damp before applying your moisturizer as the cream will help seal the hydrating benefits from the toner deep into the skin. Which is why it is always recommended to apply your moisturizer straight after cleansing your face.  Don’t apply your moisturizer onto a dry face as it wouldn’t be able to trap in the excess .
