Facial Moisturizer


The right size: Two peanuts

Application tip: Moisturizer has the big responsibility of making your skin smooth. To apply it, wash your face, and while your skin is moist (not wet), massage on a peanut-size amount of moisturizer with glycerin. Use a second peanut-size portion to hydrate your neck. "When skin is damp, moisturizer seeps into the surface better. And glycerin traps moisture in your cells," says Neil Sadick, M.D., a clinical professor of dermatology at Weill Cornell Medical College.

Try Lumene Sensitive Touch Daily Moisture Lotion ($20, target.com).
