Story board
Scene 1 – Showing off your make up to start the video. Then show the time, by holding up your phone screen in the video so it reads past 8pm, to set the scene of the evening and taking off your make up.
Scene 2 – (Remove any diamantes, false lashes or other skin/face accessories used for the make-up look before applying the cleanser, but still include this in the video)
Start by holding up the Grapefruit Cleansing Balm briefly, before proceeding to squeeze a coin sized amount into your hand and rub into dry skin. Work this into your skin to help it lift make up off the skin and remove as you rub. Look impressed with the product as it’s on your skin, before taking a damp flannel (preferably white to visibly show make up removed on fabric) to wipe the make-up and product off your skin. Show this to the camera and look impressed/laugh with how much is on there.
Please make sure you shake this Grapefruit cleansing balm before use, if any watery product comes out when squeezing the product into your hand, please remove this from the video and refilm the clip – This shouldn’t happen if the product is shaken well enough prior to use.
Scene 3 – Then go in with the Hyaluronic Acid Hydrating cleanser, to focus on the importance of double cleansing in the evening to remove all traces of dirt and impurities. This scene can be quicker than scene 1, but follow the same order of application, working product into your skin, then use a different/clean flannel or reusable cotton pad to wash off the cleanser and show the camera the flannel to show how important double cleansing is.
Scene 4 – Continue the skincare regime by applying the Niacinamide Daily Toner to your hands and pressing this into your skin all over your face.
Then use the Azelaic Acid Balancing Serum, this can be applied directly to your face using the pump or into your hands then applied to your face. Use between 2-3 pumps of this product.
Finish the regime with the Ceramide Face Cream, distributing this across your face on each cheek, forehead and chin before working into your skin before fully absorbed.
Scene 5 – Move/tilt your head from side to side to show off your skin with all the skincare products applied, looking happy/content with the results. End the video by waving to the camera, blowing a kiss or alternative you feel most comfortable with.
