BEFORE APPLYING MAKE UP:
1. CLEANSING
Start by applying cleansing milk on the face and neck with your fingers. Gently massage with your fingers in an outward and circular motion for a few seconds. Wipe off with a damp piece of cotton wool or splash water on your face, to get a perfectly clear face. Pat dry with a clean towel to dry the face.
CAUTION:
Never stretch or pull your skin while applying or removing the cleansing milk. Use the ringfinger to massage around the eyes. Move the ring finger from the inner corner of the eye to the outside and then under the eyebrows with extremely light and feathery strokes.
2. TONING:
TO remove the greasiness which appears on the face after the use of cleansing milk, you definitely need to use a toner. Put a few drops of toner on a piece of cotton wool and apply it on the face and leave it on. It contracts muscles, refines (shrinks) pores, absorbs the oil and grease immediately, leaving behind a fresh, radiant skin. Use it to see the immediate difference it makes to your complexion.
TIP:
For extra oily skins, use ASTINGENT LOTION instead of a toner. An astringent is a strongtoner which affectively removes excessive oiliness besides toning and refreshing the skin.

3. MOISTURISING
Finally use a moisturizer with your finger tips on your skin to make it soft, smooth and glowing. It also provides longer wear for make up. It takes care of your skin by not only putting back your skin lost moisture but also preventing further moisture loss. It also helps in the next application-THE FOUNDATION which spreads more easily if applied over the moisturizer, making foundation blend smoothly with the skin. |
TIP: Remember to always use a sunscreen during the day on the top of the moisturizer. This will protect the skin from pollution, sun damage and dehydration
DON'T FORGET.....AFTER REMOVING MAKE UP
1.TONING
2. MOISTURISING
TIP:
FOR a healthy, well preserved skin, follow the basic 3 minute skin care routine of cleansing, toning, and moisturizing also at the end of the day to remove dust and stale make up.
So, remember to follow this routine twice a day-before make up and to remove make up at the end of the day.
WARNING:
It's tempting to just come home and zonk out on the couch, but we're warning you: don't ever go to bed without taking off all your makeup first. You'll be sorry when you wake up to discover a smeared and pimply version of the goddess you were the night before (and a smeared couch).
