Easy does it with this or any product change on your skin.
I had this product recommended to me by my dermatologist. It was about being non greasy and a very good daily sun screen. I use this EVERY day. I small amount goes a long way. I use about the size of a dime in the palm of my hand. I have also ordered the tinted cream that this product is available in, as well. I sent it back because it was greasy and the tint looked retched on my face. Never put the sun screen around your eyes and certainly do not apply moisturizer or sun screen and expect your eye makeup to stay put. I wear a very gentle sunscreen around my eyes and only if I’m going to be on the water for some time. Barrier cream. You can read a review that I wrote sometime ago regarding the barrier cream. I was not thrilled with the cream. Then, I spoke to my plastic surgeon about the line after my face lift. What I found out is most of us are using the product incorrectly. The barrier cream was not designed to be used alone. Here’s what was recommended to me. 1. Clean your face ( I use the Elta cream cleanser twice a day.). Pat, do not rub your face dry. 2. Dispense just one pump of the Barrier cream. Place a small amount on your neck. I would describe a small amount to be about the size of half your small finger nail. Move the product gently all over you neck area and even back under your earlobes, Than place the same amount on each cheek and on your forehead. Gently rub the product in. You’ll notice that the product starts to liquify as you move it around your face. 2. Add a dab of the 50 sunscreen. Dab would be about the size of your index finger nail. Put the sunscreen in all the same places you applied the Barrier product. Your face will not absorb more than it needs. The rest stays on your face and simply looks and feels greasy. 3. Now apply, again using the same index finger nail amount, of the moisturized that you normally use daily, on top of the barrier cream and the sun screen. 4. Repeat this same procedure at night. Apply either your day time moisturizer again or use the same amount of night cream in the process. In the evening is when you will want to apply the eye repair and an evening eye cream. The secret? Most of us have been applying way too much of these products. I have Irish skin. Too much of anything sends my skin into over drive! 5. Let it be absorbed. I like to dry my hair here. 6. Now, go about applying your make up. 7. The same rule regarding quantity of liquid/ powder/ cream base makeup applies. Use the size of your index finger nail of the base. What you’ll find, is that with the three products you applied earlier, your makeup will spread and blend very easily. You’ll need less of everything. I’ve been using this process for several years. I was a Sun baby until I hit 40. Never used a sun screen. Now I’m 70. My face has paid the price of my foolish youth. Hang with these products. Limit your amounts, give your skin time to adapt. I will try to load a picture I took last week of my 70 yr old face. You judge for yourself. My handsome brother is in the picture with me. He is 72.
