Thought applying large amounts of your beauty products was a good thing? Think again. When it comes to beauty product portions less is more, unless it’s sunscreen and then more is a must! So I’ve created a foolproof beauty key so you know exactly how much of your skin care, makeup, hair care and body beauty products you should be applying.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

FACE:  People have a problem of putting too much makeup and skin care product on their faces, but not enough sunscreen (get it together!) The effects of such excessiveness: clogged pores and breakouts, and in terms of treatment serums, irritation.

 

HAIR: Although the quantity of product depends on the length and thickness of your hair, less is most likely best. Too much conditioner and mousse can weigh hair down. And we all know what happens when we use too much shampoo…bubbles that take forever to wash out! If you are feeling really dirty stylists recommend using a small amount and washing hair twice.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

BODY: Too much body wash can dry out skin, so practice some quantity control. However, you’re skin can’t get enough body moisturizer and sunscreen! Going to be in the sun? Get your shot glass out because any size less than that can comprise the efficacy of the SPF.
