I have always been a skin care nut.... who owns and trys WAYY toooo many products.... but, lately, i have been breaking out a lil bit. Stress, i think.
So, i have switched it up a little bit.

what are the best skin-care products that you would reccommend?

Id love to know what everyone else uses to keep their face healthy and glowing!

Thanks in advance!

Well...for me, my routine is very simple. I've been washing my face with the same product for over 20 years. It was created by my dermotologist and is available locally and online. It's a soap free cleanser, and it's the only thing I can use...otherwise I get an itchy rash. I'm a huge fan of it. It doesn't dry my face out and I use it every morning and every evening. During the day I wear an oil free moisturizer with SPF. That's it. A few times a week I use a washcloth on my face to gently exfoliate.

For a cleanser I use Purity Made Simple by Philosophy, morning and night. I use Neutrogena eye cream with spf 20 and The Shelter spf 30 by Philosophy on my face during the day.

At night I use Philosophy's Help Me retinol cream on my face and neck and Hope In A Tube on my eyes.

I have very sensitive skin and as I cannot tolerate any perfumes or chemicals I was worried about what soap or cream to use and where to find Innersense skin care products. I tried Grateful Body products by chance, and now I can't stop using them. Their extravagant botanical facial care "recipes" are 100% free of chemicals & synthetics. They beautify and heal holistically with organic, unrefined ingredients mixed in small, fresh batches. Their organic line and plant products are much safer for my multiple chemical sensitivities than anything "medical" I sat in the aisle of my local organic product store looking at the ingredients of every product when I found Grateful Body. There were no chemicals at all AND it was formulated for the environmentally sensitive. It was the only one of its kind, all natural ingredients.They have reformulated their Environmental Impact line into a Sensitive skin line which I have just bought and tried. Their products are beautiful and very gentle. I love their products so much, If you are looking for a true organic and sensitive product that is chemical free, I've done your research for you and am a testament to their fantastic ingredients and products. I feel great about using them. They are well-priced and worth every penny. My skin is truly grateful.

I wash with neutragena liquid soap and use oil of olay moisturizer with spf. I do this every morning and every night.

It works great for me. Everyone loves my skin and I never wear makeup.

I was having this same problem as well. Little pesky breakouts here and there. I started using Ducray Keracnyl purifying water and the Neutrogena Wave (w/exfoliating pads) in the shower daily. You can notice a HUGE difference, just with these two products, but I needed a lotion to go along with it. After my cleansing routine, I use Neutrogena Healthy Skin face lotion w/ SPF15, vitamins and alpha-hydroxy acid. After that, I love the Jergens natural glow healthy complexion "tan" lotion. I swear, it feels just like a facial, sans the hefty cost!

I use the same Dove soap for my face and Eucerin moisturizer. I am thinking of getting something with a SPF for the summer. Everything else makes me break out. Sometimes, I use a wash cloth for my face. Nothing fancy..

Well I always wash my face with a good face wash and I never change the products. I always stick to one good product and the best tip for glowing skin is to drink plenty of water,water is the best medicine for skin problems
