Moisturiser
Why:
Combat dryness and re-hydrate skin to keep it soft and protected
Moisturisers will vary in specific product qualities and in terms of product purpose. A moisturiser may be designed for one or more of the following purposes:
Matte Complexion - reduce shine and absorb excess oil
Anti-ageing - to reduce fine lines and wrinkles and improve skin elasticity [firmness]
Complexion Enhancer - good for the morning after to brighten and revitalise dull complexion
Sun Protection - the sun is the main cause of premature skin aging, moisturisers containing an SPF will help to protect your skin from harmful UV rays
What:
A moisturiser should be chosen according to skin type and purpose.
When:
Apply immediately after toning as part of your daily routine.
A moisturiser could replace an after shave balm or for very dry skin types a moisturiser could be applied in addition to an after shave balm. For the latter allow the after shave balm time to absorb before applying moisturiser.
Re-apply during the day if skin feels dehydrated due to sun exposure, cold, or air-conditioning
How:
Gently apply to your face and neck
