According to one of my favorite life advisors of all time, Mr. Dale Carnegie, a person is never to tell others they are doing something wrong. Â Maybe that is the case, but when the improvement of skin care is on the line, I say a woman has to get her priorities straight.
Here’s the deal: Â Most people apply skin care products by applying them to their cheeks first, then rubbing in circular motions outward. Â However, the majority of sun damage becomes visible on the center of the face — most particularly the nose, lower forehead, and cheeks — as one ages. Â With that said, you’d be doing yourself a favor to rub moisturizer on your cheeks, then inward towards your nose, and then towards your forehead, chin, and lastly the outer portions of your cheeks.
One last note: Â Avoid uneven application altogether by applying a small dot of moisturizer on your nose, forehead, chin, and on each cheek, to ensure even application!
I was surprised when I discovered that I too was guilty of doing this.  But it makes sense that the center of the face receives the most UV light and therefore ages the fastest – and would therefore benefit from more beneficial ingredient-concentrated moisturizer application!  🙂
