Step 2: II. Apply Moisturize to Your Face.

You should make sure your face and hands are clean before beginning. Applying make up to a dirty face using dirty hands will cause blemishes.

A. Choose the correct moisturizer for your skin type.

If you have dry skin, you should choose a moisturizer that hydrates your skin, preferably a thick cream instead of a light lotion or gel type. If you prefer anti-aging moisturizers, you should choose one that has ingredients such as peptides, retinol, and antioxidants. If you have oily skin, you should choose a moisturizer that has botanical extracts or oil free formulas, and a light lotion instead of a thick cream. If you have sensitive skin, you should choose a moisturizer that contains oatmeal or aloe, and fragrance free. If you have acne-prone skin, you should choose a moisturize that is a light lotion and oil free. You should use a spot treatment that contains benzoyl peroxide and salicylic acid as needed.
