Back to Basics: Moisturizer!!!

So now that we've talked about finding the right cleanser, we should now talk about finding the right moisturizer. Think of cleanser as food for your skin. Moisturizer is the water for your skin. Even those with oily skin need moisture. You just need the right kind. Did you know that a loss of firmness in the skin is usually just a sign of a loss in moisture? Try using one and seeing how your skin firms up in reaction to the moisurizer.

Mary Kay has 8 different moisturizers to meet your skin care needs. Here is a breakdown of what Mary Kay offers (and yes, don't forget that prices are subject to change at anytime).

Velocity Moisturizer ($12, plus tax). This moisturizer is paired with the Velocity Cleanser and is geared for the teen. It's a lightweight moisturizer that blends in easily. The cleanser and the moisturizer together are part of Mary Kay's acne treatment line (adding the Classic Line #3 toner and the Acne Treatment Gel). There are no anti-age or anti-wrinkle properties in the Velocity line.

Botanical Effects Moisturizer ($16, plus tax). The Botanical Effects line is targeted for those 18 to 25 years of age--so your typical college student. There are three formulas, one for Dry skin, one for Normal skin and one for Oily skin. There are no anti-age or anti-wrinkle properties in the Botanical Effects line. And again, the packaging is made from recycled materials for those who find this important. This line is also hypoallergenic, fragrance free and dye free.

Additionlly, this moisturizer has and SPF of 25 in it to protect the skin from sun damage.
