  • I try all kinds of stuff including expensive stuff and my favorite products that I find work the best are Olay Definity Cleanser at night and the Olay Regenerist wet cloths in the morning. I like both the Aloette and Olay moisturizers.

    I use Dr. Bronner's Magic Hemp Peppermint Soap. I use it for everything. There's no nasty chemicals in it at all. You can brush your teeth with it. In the shower, it steams up and it's like aromatherapy. On camping trips, you can use it in a river and not pollute it. I use it on my face, it's great. I'll tell you a good secret - Drink tons of water every day, your skin will GLOW!

    Hey!!! Tea tree oil works!! Buy one of those mini bottle and drip one drop or use a few drops and rub it on your face like moisturizer. Don't use too much though!! Or you can get the one that actually is lotion, and this also treats, cuts, mozzie bites and skin infections!!!

    I just squeezed a lemon, and spread the juice all over my face. The lemon takes it's time to work, but with patience, it actually works! Although it may not be the best idea if your face is sensitive, and could dry up quickly! :S ++

    I used to use Aveeno Clear Complexion Foaming Cleanser and that seemed to work really well. Unfortunately I found out that some of the ingredients were found to be carcinogenic so I've switched to Burt's Bees and Noxzema. We'll see how it works out.

    Clinique Anti-Blemish foaming facial cleaner rotated with the Clinique 7-day scrub. Anti-Blemish cleanser but that sometimes leaves my skin dry so I used a lancome cleanser milk when I feel this happening and use the Lancome Zen moisturiser.
    I kinda need it all as bad skin runs in my genes. I use Lancome Ultra-Teint foundation aswell coz it's light.

    Nothing, just water. My face is pretty clear and although it's not as pretty as other women my age, it will stay mediocre long after everyone else's caves in from putting all that stuff on it lol.
    But, maybe not, I used to say I didn't want to wear makeup, but I seem to slap it on so much all the time, especially near the eyes. >_>

    I did have a zit a while back, but it went away on its own. :)

  • I use Estee Lauder.

    There are products for all skin types.
    Your Estee girl will help you choose a regimen that suits your skin type and lifestyle.

    I never wear makeup to bed.
    I use Fruition and Night Repair.

    If you've never had a professional facial, I do recommend getting one. There are many different types--your aesthetician will tell you what's best for you.

    I know you hate going to the mall, but that's what you should do because you need an experienced Estee girl to help you choose the appropriate products and regimen.
    Then you may order online, if you must.

    Also, if you develop a relationship with one girl, she will let you know about new products that will be good for you (YOU GET FREE SAMPLES!-YAY!), she will put aside any soon-to-be discontinued colors or products that you LOVE, so you can stock up and she will contact you when the free gift is available at her store. I shop at several stores and have several Estee girls--the free gift travels store-to-store. I stuff my nieces Christmas stockings with them! They adore it!

    Estee's products are not tested on animals, nor do they contain animal products like the (cheap) cosmetics. They are non-comedogenic. Your face will be clean and this should eliminate any blackhead problems--even pimples, unless you are breaking out for other reasons.

    Go visit an Estee Lauder counter and have a makeover--it's free and it's soooo much fun!
    :D

    Like I said before, your body is not made for chemicals to be put on it so keep way from them as much as possible. A lot of handsoaps etc are really drying so they won't help your skin...

    I'm 20 and am lucky with my skin as have never really had spots. I use a flannel to clean my face without soap or other products. You don't really need to use exfoliator if you use a flannel (face cloth). Use a good moisturiser and don't use foundation .My sister and lots of my mates use foundation to cover up spots etc but it makes them worse, so they use more and more. Its just putting more dirt and oil on your skin, you don't need it. Use as little products as possible, I think people forget that out skin is not made for all of the proucts we have available- IT doesn't like chemicals so keep them away!!!

    I would say eating healthy and drinking lots of water. As for products... Everyone's skin bases are different, so that would be a question to ask a dermatologist (nodding)

    I hope I helped hun (smiling)

    Oh my goodness, I used to drive myself crazy trying all kinds of astringents and things to keep oil and pimples in check, which just made it all worse. After learning that drying out the skin causes it to produce more oil which causes more breakouts, I decided to use a gentle cleanser and light moisturizer. I now just use the Bio Specific Rehydration set from Yves Rocher -- nothing else. It's great for dry skin and doesn't have some elaborate, time consuming ritual to perform. Just wash, spritz, moisturize and I'm done. It smoothed out my complexion in days and, while it's not formulated to get rid of them, it put a stop to breakouts.

    I use Mary Kay Timewise 3 in 1 cleanser and moisturizer (anti-age and for combined skin) every day and my skin has improved a lot. I highly recomend them.
    Once in a while I use a microexfolliating product of the same brand.

    I find these methods are fantastic for preventing any skin problems.
    - one a week use a clay or mud mask to draw out impurities. This is great for people with oily skin for it will remove and prevent oil from returning for several hours.
    -Wash twice a day with a gentle cleanser, try clinique! Use a scrub twice a week and always use a light, oil-free moisturizer with an spf around 15
    -Salicylic acid facial pads, like clearasil, both exfoliate and deep clean pores.
    -Apply a benyzol-peroxide cream to spots and leave on overnight.
    -Mineral makeup, such as sheercover and bareminerals, are healthy for your pores and will gradually heal and smooth skin overtime.
    -Do not touch your face! Ever! All the oil and bacteria from your hands will extremely irritate your skin.
    hope this helps you!

    Clearasil Daily Face Wash is the absolute best for me. Although,if I stop using it for a day or two,I'll breakout a little.
