HOW OFTEN SHOULD I MOISTURISE MY FACE?

You should moisturise your face EVERY DAY, every morning and evening! Moisturising is a perfect way to pamper your skin before you start your day and before you go to sleep, as moisturisers are packed full of skin-loving ingredients that can hydrate, brighten, smooth, and plump the look of your skin with instant and long-term results!



WHY SHOULD YOU MOISTURISE YOUR SKIN EVERY MORNING?

It’s important to moisturise your face every morning because your day moisturiser is designed to hydrate your skin after cleansing and prepare your skin for the day ahead, whether you’ll be applying makeup or going for a fresh-faced, natural-looking glow!

Most day creams also include protective ingredients like SPF and pollution defence, which can help prevent the appearance of signs of aging caused by external aggressors like UV rays, polluted air, and even blue light from digital devices and the sun!

Tilbury Tip: For magic morning moisturising, use Charlotte’s Magic Cream or Charlotte's Magic Water Cream!



WHY DO YOU NEED TO MOISTURISE YOUR FACE AT NIGHT?

You should also moisturise your skin every night, but for different reasons! After a full day of your skin being exposed to elements of day-to-day life, moisturising your skin in the evening will allow your skin to reap the benefits of the nourishing and moisturising ingredients in your night cream.

Tilbury Tip: Charlotte’s Magic Night Cream is the PERFECT nourishing night cream for everyone, everywhere!

HOW TO CHOOSE THE BEST MOISTURISER FOR YOUR SKIN TYPE

To discover the best moisturiser for your skin, it’s important to first identify your skin type and your skin wishes. For example, do you have dry skin and are looking for a hydrating moisturiser? Or maybe you have combination skin and would like a moisturiser to help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. The moisturiser that's perfect for you will depend on your skin type and preferences; discover my magic moisturisers and choose the perfect formula for you!

WHAT SHOULD I DO AFTER MOISTURISING MY FACE?

After moisturising your face in the morning, follow by applying SPF. Like moisturiser, you should wear SPF every day, even when it’s cloudy!

While many day creams have SPF in their formula already, the best way to protect your skin is to LAYER THE MAGIC and follow with a high-factor SPF like Charlotte’s Invisible UV Flawless Poreless Primer with SPF 50! This SPF not only provides essential protection from UV rays with SPF 50, but it also protects from modern pollution with CITYSTEM™, helps to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles over time with COLLALIFT™18, adds an extra layer of hydration with hyaluronic acid, and perfectly primes and preps your skin for a smooth-looking complexion!

HOW TO MOISTURISE YOUR FACE

To moisturise your face, first choose your MAGIC moisturiser from the ICONIC, award-winning Charlotte’s Magic Cream, or lighter-textured Magic Cream Light! Then apply using Charlotte’s 5-minute Tilbury Tap facial massage technique!...

For best results, follow Charlotte’s 5-minute Magic Massage to expertly absorb the product into the skin and finish with her Tilbury Tap facial technique!

1. COMPLEXION BOOST

Starting from the lower cheek, glide the product upwards and outwards towards the temple. Gently tap fingertips from the centre of the face across the cheeks in a pitter-patter motion to boost micro-circulation in seconds!

2. DEFINE CONTOURS

Smooth fingertips along the cheekbones.

3. DEFINE JAWLINE

Gently pinch either side of your chin and smooth along your jawline in one sweeping motion.

4. SMOOTH FURROWS

Starting in the centre of the forehead between the eyebrows, massage in circular motions out towards the temples. Gently pat the excess with your ring finger.

5. MASSAGE NECK AND DÉCOLLETAGE

Applying gentle pressure, massage along the décolletage and up to the neck in an upward lifting motion.



HOW TO MOISTURISE DEHYDRATED SKIN

Skin becomes dehydrated when it is experiencing water loss; to moisturise dehydrated skin, I recommend reaching for an intensely hydrating moisturiser that floods the skin with powerful hydrators. I created Charlotte's Magic Water Cream to drench thirsty skin to immediately revive its appearance. The gel-cream formula is enriched with supercharged Hyaluronic Mesh Technology to deliver heaps of hydration to the skin, giving it a glassy, fresh water glow and bathing it in magical moisture.

HOW TO MOISTURISE DRY SKIN

If you have dry skin, Charlotte recommends LAYERING THE MAGIC and moisturising with both Charlotte’s Magic Cream AND Charlotte's Magic Water Cream! Those with dry skin will benefit from a double layer of magic hydration; both supercharged, hydrating moisturisers work in unison to flood your skin with moisture without feeling heavy, sticky or greasy on your skin. The result? An intensely hydrated complexion that appears smoother, brighter, and plumper!

HOW TO MOISTURISE YOUR UNDER-EYE AREA

Your delicate under eye area requires extra moisturisation and care, due to the skin being thinner and more likely to show signs of ageing like fine lines and wrinkles and appear puffy with eye bags or discoloured with dark circles. To correctly moisturise your under-eye area, I recommend using Magic Eye Rescue eye cream with plant stem cell extracts, Time Released Retinol and brightening-effect ingredients like vitamin C!

Tilbury Tip: Apply using your ring finger as this is more likely to apply the least pressure to your delicate eye area! Gently apply and tap in until absorbed every morning and night.

HOW TO MOISTURISE OVERNIGHT

Moisturising at night is just as important as moisturising in the morning! When moisturising overnight, make sure you use a dedicated night cream like Charlotte’s Magic Night Cream, to ensure your skin is moisturised with the best nourishing overnight ingredients! Magic Night Cream is also a rich, balm-like elixir texture, so be sure to apply it about 20 minutes before you go to bed to allow the luxurious formula to absorb into your skin!

Darlings, moisturise your skin with my magic moisturiser and it will never look or feel better! Whether you love the rush of moisture from my gel-cream moisturiser, Charlotte's Magic Water Cream, or the luxurious feeling of massaging my award-winning Charlotte's Magic Cream into the skin, apply your favourite moisturiser each morning for supple, smoother-looking skin that glows!
