- Wash your hands and rub moisturizer all over hands until it is completely absorbed. If your hands are dry, they will absorb some of your facial moisturizer. Oil and impurities can get to your face, which leads to acne because of dirty hands.
- Squeeze a bit of unscented lotion on your fingers and rub to warm. Warmed moisturizer can be absorbed better than the cold one. The cream smells can worsen the facial skin, especially around the eyes and mouth.
- Dot moisturizer on the forehead, chin and cheeks. Pat moisturizer into skin by using a scrub but not moving up. Do not use pull down motion on skin. The rubbing can lead to skin irritation and broken capillaries, especially around the nose. Add a little cream if you need to apply a thin layer on the surface.

- Apply a little eye cream on your ring finger and gently pat it under your eyes and over the eyelids. Ring finger is usually the weakest finger on your hand, which will prevent you from using too much power to delicate eye skin.
- Pat lip balm on your lips by using your ring finger. Bring it along to reapply. Eating and lips licking can remove balm and rob them of moisture.
