    Default What is your facial skin care routine?

    What type of skin do your have, any skin problems, what products/brands do you use, and how effective are they?

    I have slightly oily skin, larger pores.

    I use Kiehls milk, honey and almond scrub, then the ultra moisturizing cleansing cream. I go get facials every 2 weeks. I also apply dead sea mud mask once a week, or homemade facial mask of honey.

    I have very oily skin.

    In the morning its:

    Got 2b In Your Face's "Pore Me Deep Scrub with apricot,papaya, and tea tree oil"
    CVS's "Blackhead Clearing Scrub"
    Neutrogena's "Clear Pore oil controlling astringent"
    Neutrogena's "Oil Free Anti Acne Moisturizer"

    At night it's:

    Cover Girl make up remover
    Aveeno "Clear Complexion" daily cleansing pads
    Neutrogena's "Clear Pore oil controlling astringent"
    Loreal's "RevitaLift Double Lifting" intense re tightening gel + anti wrinkle treatment

    Plus I do various masks throughout the week.

    I have extremely acne prone skin-

    I do all of the following, not necessarily in this order-

    Joey of New York Cleanser
    Retin-a
    TCA peels
    Glycolic peels
    Jojoba Scrub (better than apricot because it does not tear at and aggravate skin)
    tea tree oil
    Shea butter
    Glo mineral makeup with SPF

    I'm horrified by how dry & cold the air is in the Rocky Mountains, so I do egg yolk masques & moisturize with heavy creams all the time. (I've been hunting for cocoa butter sticks up here but can't find 'em. Otherwise I'd use THAT.) & I have oily skin in the 1st place......

    Olay anti acne anti blemish face wash - I looove this stuff
    retin-a 0.05 % every other night
    st. Ives collegen enhancing moisturizer - this stuff sucks, after I run out I will not buy anymore
    on non- retin -a nights I use the sublime glow moisturizer in medium to keep me from looking too ghostly
    also neutrogena anti wrinkle eye cream
    in the morning I use eyecream with uva uvb spf 30
    and a moisturizing sunscreen
    but before I put on that stuff I use an antioxidant serum on a semi wet and warm face - absorbes better, or so I'm told.
    I also do the asprin mask I read about on hear a few times a week whenevr I notice blackheads - probably exasserbated by me using tanner infused body lotion on my face, but I love the way it makes my skin feel, so fuck it.
    The mask gets rid of the little ones.... the big ones will come out Friday night before I go to bed so I have the weekend for my skin to get rid of any reddness.

    I also use any and all the vitamins reccomended by derms to keep skin healthy..... been doing this about two years, religiously, and have noticed a HUGE difference in my skin.

    Yes I heard great things about crushed asprin applied on the face as a facial mask. I used it but didn't have as good results. When I used to have acne, I used plain yogurt as a mask, and that was always amazing!! Any facial products with yogurt are great too, yogurt is toning, mosurizing, good for all skin types, exfloits, cleanses, does so much.

    Regarding the TCA peels, is it better to buy that stuff online and do it yourself or pay someone else ($1200?) to do it?

    I dont do much, never have. I take lots of vitamin C and use extra virgin organic olive or coconut oil around my eyes and to remove make-up. I just use soap (pure prefurrably) and water to remove the rest. It seems to work.
    I dont believe putting chemicals on the skin is a good thing long term, but thats me I guess
    Oh I have "normal" skin, always have had.

    Exoticsh23, I do it myself. I am an esthetician. I have fun playing with lots of stuff!

    But for non-estheticians, DO NOT DO IT YOURSELF! Go to a pro!

    When you buy online, the stuff can be mostly water, and a rip off. But if you do get the real stuff, BEWARE, I have seen lots of ugly mistakes.

    For anyone that cares - Here is Tyra's facial routine. (RANT - I hate her. She is such an anti-stripper hippocrate).


    On the Tyra Banks show. Tyra Banks reveled what produtcs she uses to clean her face.

    To remove makeup- Shu Umerua Cleansing Beauty Oil Premium

    To wash face- Aveeno Moisturizing Bar for dry skin. Followed with a wash cloth.

    Moisturizer- Aveda Hydrating lotion. ( she also uses this moisturizer on her breasts to keep them soft perky and to prevent stretch marks)

    I have normal to oily (summer) & normal to dry (winter). The one thing I hate is my red spider veins on my face. So I have to be kinda careful w/stuff. So bascially, I use those pre-moistened cleansing cloths, sometimes just toner wiped on w/cotton circle (right now Almay's #2 norm.-oily. I also got a sample of, & purchased: Neutrogena Glow cleansing cushions (norm.-dry). It came from Target w/a sample of their scrub. They're cool, one side is exfoliating, the other moisturizing. I'll be using those a couple X's a week. I get samples from Sephora, they just came out w/Kinerase for blemishes. I also got a full size freebe from Ulta of L'oreal Revialift anti aging serum.
    The sites I like: skinstore.com, faceetc.com, lookfantastic.com < also hair products.

    I almost forgot: makeupalley.com, for reviews.
    Also, Neutrogena sun shield (new) it's supposed to protect skin all day against UVA rays.

    The only thing I need to do for my face is not put make up on it unless I'm going stripping and I exfoliate atleast every two days.
    I'm clumsy with products and they only seem to make me more oily anyway

    you crush up uncoated aspirin and mix it with a little water (or you can use lemon juice/witch hazel if you need it to be strong), make a thick paste with it, spread it over your face, leave it to dry, wash it off, and voila, amazingly soft skin!

    Pure Vege Soap (you can get the lovely French stuff cheap here!)
    Goats milk soap rocks too
    Lemon juice
    Tea tree oil
    Jojoba oil
    Rosehip oil
    Olive oil
    Coconut oil
    Almond oil
    Apricot oil
    Vit E oil occasionally (the really thick stuff)

    All used at different times as i feel i need it. I listen to my skin

    Steaming your face with a couple of drops of tea tree oil works wonders!

    Oh, and clay masks now and again.

    Oily/acne prone.

    I'm on Accutane now so there's no need for me to put on anything. It's been 20 days and my skin looks phenomenal!

    I wash it with Cetaphil soap for all skin types. I have to get me a good moisturizer soon. For now i'm using a lotion to prevent scars. Skin is looking great.
