Ladies, I need your advise on how to apply neck cream correctly.
After slamming on some cream I don't get which way to move: up? down? horizontal?  To me it seems like I'll be creating more wrinkles on my neck the way I put my cream on 
Help please, merci.

upward motion is what I was being taught...
also, another trick is to scrub the neck lines (if you have any) with facial scrub in a tiny circular motion along the line for couple of minutes.... it'll not only diminish the appearance of the lines but also allow the cream to be fully absorbed!!  |

i've found (when in doubt, or w. a thick cream) go for light patting/pressing motions. it works for face, neck, eyes...
the light pressure also acts a bit like lymphatic drainage, and really brings colour to your cheeks when you do it consistently over time. |

I have always used gently upwards sweeps, followed by a patting movement to "push" the cream in 
BUT a few months ago on QVC they had the Cellcosmet lady on and she said we should go DOWNWARDS for applying neck cream.. and here is where I got a bit muddled with language.. but something about the pressure points in the neck respond to downward movement. I guess it is like under the eye should go from outside to inside for putting on cream. |

| I was told downward strokes for neck, something to do with working towards the heart. I prefer the patting method personally. |

Dr. H recommends this type of procedure with their cleansing cream. It makes a lot of sense. |
