How to Pick a Skin Moisturizer

Hi! I'm Leah from Refuel Spa and on behalf of Expert Village. Today we're going to be talking a little bit about moisture application. With the moisturizer application, it's truly key to do this first because if you're going to apply a powder foundation or very dry skin or flakey skin, it actually will set in those flakes or set in those dry fine lines, so applying moisturizer is going to allow the product to set very evenly in the skin. What you're going to do is kind of talk to your client. Do they have dry skin, oily skin, or you can actually just take a look at the texture as well. On our client today, I see a little bit of dryness so today I'm going to choose skin smoothing cream, a nice medium weight moisturizer. This also gives you an opportunity to retail to your client and talk a little bit about skin care because makeup only goes as far as it can. Skin is truly the basis of beautiful makeup. Alright. I'm also going to apply a little bit of eye cream. The product that I chose is called Total Eye Care. This product also has some SPF in it in the mild tint that's going to reflect dark circles. This will eliminate the need of using a heavy undereye concealer. I'm just going to spot treat right under the eyes here and dot and blend out. You can see it has that nice refletive quality to it. It gives a nice glow around the eyes. We can all use that. Just kind of smooth it out for your client. Then from there, you're ready to begin your application. Watch our next segment on mineral cosmetics.
