You more than likely already realize the skin and face cream marketplace is very cutthroat and competitive. Millions of dollars are spent daily on advertising and store layouts trying to get your dollar.
Unfortunately — lots of people… me included — sometimes buy products on “pure emotion” and don’t really think it through. We often don’t really understand the real issues when it comes to buying a face cream or moisturizer… So here are 9 tips to keep in mind next time you’re looking for one.
1 –> Decide whether you’re going to use natural or cosmetic/synthetic substances.
2 –> What’s your price range… Do you have a $5, $25, $50 or higher budget level. There’s no point even looking at a $100 tube of face cream with a $25 maximum budget — So be realistic!
3 –> Which problem are you buying the cream for… Moisturizing — hydrating — nourishing — dry skin issues — wrinkles — bags under eyes — dark circles around eyes — saggy skin on face — loose skin on neck.
4 –> Understand that one single cream isn’t going to be able to solve all of the above 9 issues… That’s why any good skin cream manufacturer will have an active day cream, restorative night cream, eye contour gel, active body lotion, deep active cleansing mask, deep active hydrating mask and whitening cream in their range.
5 –> These creams contain different substances that are specifically there to target certain a particular problem… They usually have a few base ingredients in each cream and special ones to address each separate issue. If you’re young you want to prevent getting dry skin or wrinkles? — If your older removing fine lines and wrinkles is your goal?
6 –> Don’t get too emotionally involved in the purchase or product. You’re buying it for a specific reason — don’t waste your money on a cream that won’t work… Learn to read the label and understand what the ingredients are, and what they will do for you. If you have any doubts — research it further or “Don’t Buy It”
7 –> Determine what you want to buy, and how much you’re prepared to pay before you go into the supermarket or pharmacy… They cleverly display products to catch your eye — so you will buy something you really don’t need on a “whim of emotion.” So have a plan, be careful and stick to it.
8 –> On the other hand, buying over the Internet can also be confusing because it’s easy and there are thousands of options — here again, know what you want and choose carefully before committing to a purchase.
9 –> Make sure what you buy has a guarantee and return policy — if it doesn’t don’t even consider buying it.
With the right positive approach and a little bit of knowledge. You can make your next facial lotion purchase simple, resulting in an effective solution that works.
