Here are some tips to making your favourite products last longer...
Moisturiser
One Blueberry
For most people this is enough for your face and neck. Lightly rub in the palm of your hands to warm the product. Then pat it onto your forehead, cheeks and chin, and work it in with a gentle upwards and outwards motion.
Serum
2 or 3 Skittles
Serums promise results, so it's a little tempting to slap them on, but these formulas are concentrated ( and expensive ). Press the product into your cheeks, forehead and chin. Then tap your face with your fingers to stimulate circulation.
Facial Oil
2 Peas
A little oil goes a long way. Two drops are enough for the face and two more for the neck and decolletage. Use facial oils straight after cleansing and toning, so it glides on easily. It means you use less in the long run.
Eye Cream
A grain of rice per eye
The skin around your eyes is delicate and sensitive. You only need a tiny amount and adding more won't make it work any better. Think one grain of rice per eye and pat it into the skin for even distribution.
Shampoo
One teaspoon
With a good quality shampoo, you should only need a little. Wet your hair thoroughly ( the wetter your hair, the less shampoo you need ) then pour a teaspoon sized blob into your hands, rub them together and apply, concentrating on your roots. If it doesn't lather up enough, add more water not more shampoo.
Sunscreen
2 tablespoons for body, plus 2 teaspoons each for your face, neck and arms.
Its really important to know how much sunscreen to apply because not applying enough you will not get the full protection of your spf.
