"I am here at Cynergy Dance Studio in San Antonio, Texas. We are going to be talking about moisturizers for different skin types. If you have dry skin, find a moisturizer that is very nourishing for your skin. If you have oily skin, make sure you get something oil free. On Lucy, she is a little bit dry today so I am choosing a moisturizer that is nourishing and I am going to apply it and you can kind of see it a little bit and this will make the foundation that we are going to put on top of it be very smooth. I am just using a very little. I use maybe like the size of a nickel for her face and if you need more, you can use more but I just want to give it a nice layer. This moisturizer in particular, I am able to go around the eyes with it. Some moisturizers make sure that you check. Some you are not able to put around your eyes and you will have to use a separate eye cream."
