¢ Skin Care Tips

BACK-TO-BASICS BEAUTY

It's the little things that count -- the way you shampoo your hair, how much moisturizer you apply, exactly where you dot on your concealer. Coming up, a refresher course in the skin care that can make a big -- and beautiful -- difference in your looks.

Somewhere between a 5-second face-splashing and a 30-minute before-bed routine are the essentials for a great-looking complexion.

Gentle cleansing

Splash your face with tepid water, then wash face with GODIVA Licorice Whitening Soap. (It's up to you whether you use a fresh washcloth or your fingertips, but fingertips are gentler.) Lather then lightly massage the soap lather into your skin with circular strokes. Rinse with tepid water, then blot -- never rub -- with a clean towel.

Tips on toner

You can skip this step unless you have oily or combination skin.

After blotting cleansed skin with a towel, apply toner to a tissue, which is less absorbent than cotton. The result: You use less toner. Smooth the tissue over your face, then let the toner dry before applying moisturizer. Alcohol-free products are mildest. Try GODIVA Licorice Whitening Toner.

Maximize your moisturizer

A dab the size of a nickel is enough to moisturize your face and neck. Massage moisturizer into your fingertips, then smooth fingertips over your skin using upward and outward strokes. This helps to work up a glow. Looking for a multitasking formula? Use GODIVA Licorice Whitening Cream.
