Materials

Instructions
1. Remove any traces of makeupn. A clean canvas helps the serum penetrate into the skin more deeply.

2. Apply the serum to each cheek, your chin and forehead with the dropper. Using gentle strokes, apply to your face and neck. It's really important to only use upward motions when applying to your neck to help prevent drooping and aging of the neck.

3. Starting in the center of your face, massage outward from brow to temple, repeating the motion until you reach your hairline.

4. Gently massage from the center of your face, just under brows to your hairline.

5. Make three passes from the center of your face out over your cheekbones.

6. Make three passes from the center of your face under your cheekbones.

7. Massage gently from your upper lip to your jawline in a horizontal sweep.

9. Massage outward from the center of your chin, along your jaw to the bottom of your ear.

10. Massage in gentle upward motions on your neck, sweeping up toward your jaw.

11. Using your fourth finger, which is your weakest, apply eye cream in gentle taps under your eye area and over your lid. (Check to make sure the product is safe for this area first.) When applying the product, try not to pull at the delicate skin in this region.

12. Spray a fine hydrating mist over your face. Gently pat this in for maximum moisture.

You've now given your face some much needed TLC. Remember when massaging your face, neck and eye area to use gentle strokes to avoid pulling at your skin unnecessarily.
