How to Moisturize Your Face

Video Transcript

"Hi, I'm Kim Haertl, with Simply Beautiful. A question I get a lot, is how to moisturize your skin. It's a very basic question, but it's a really important question. What we're going to do, is we're going to begin with a very clean face. Then, we're going to tone. We're going to put a serum on, whatever serum works for you. In this case, we're going to put a hydrating moisture intensive serum, and then we're going to go one for the eye, one for the face, then we're going to go over with a moisturizer for the eye,and a moisturizer for the face, and that's how you're going to moisturize your skin, so I'm going to start with a nice toner on a cot round. Not everybody needs a serum, so we just like to show, I just wanted to show you what steps to take in moisturizing. If you don't feel like you need a moisturizer, cleanse, tone, eye cream, then face cream or lotion. Don't forget sunscreen in the daytime, so find a lotion that has a sunscreen. Here's Nancy's serum for the eyes. This is called Laser. This is a serum that helps reduce dark circles, and puffiness. We're going to bring it on the inside of the eye, and sweep it out on top of the eye. It doesn't need to be in here, because serums and creams will work themselves onto the lid of the eye, with your eye motion. I'm going to go with our pearl size on your fingertips. Blend it into your fingertips. Start in the middle of the face, blend out. Blend out and blend up, and then don't forget your forehead and your chin, so those are the serums. If you don't need serum, skip that part. Go straight for your eye cream or eye gel. Eye cream is great for drier skin tone, for drier skins, or normal combination skin, and you just want to take the eye cream, and tap it, in a C, around the outside of your eye. Eye cream never goes here, or here, just here. As I said, it works itself in the concentration it needs to appear. We'll do both eyes. This is a firming, moisturizing eye cream. Nancy has very firm skin, but this is the one I like, so then you're going to finish the whole production, with your moisturizer. Just a pearl size, again on your fingertips. Sweep it up. Sweep it around your neckline, jawline, between your eyes, and that's how you moisturize your skin, so cleanse, tone, eye serum, face serum, eye cream, face cream, and you'll have a beautiful complexion, like Nancy does."
