Hi Ladies!!

I am trying to find some good new skincare products. I need a new good cleanser, moisturizer, toner, exfoliator, even some good masques would be cool! I definitely would like something to even my skin tone and prevent fine/lines/wrinkles (I have lines on my forehead already when I raise my eyebrows :frown: )


So tell me what you're using to keep your skin in good shape!!

Thanks in advance =)

:flowerforyou:

EDIT: lol... I was going to ask about fragrance too but I'm more interested in the good skincare... I do like light and sweet scents though and am looking for something good.

    I love vanilla too. Its a comforting scent and it goes well with other notes.

    I use Mary Kay’s TimeWise series: moisturizer ($22) and cleanser ($18) for combination skin. I use their blemish fighting toner ($13) in order to prevent breakouts – I do still get a few every now and then. Usually during that week of the month. I also use Mary Kay’s – liquid foundation ($15) but I had a representative help me pick a color. I will buy all of these items once a year so it may cost a few dollars more but it’s definitely been worth it. Been using them for three years. None of them have scents though, which I like :)

    My skin is veeeery sensitive so here's what works for me:

    1)Spectro gel for sensitive skin (don't remember the cost, probably between 8-12$)
    2)Spectro gel hypo allergenic moisturizer (expensive but it WORKS. Cleared up my acne like you couldn't believe!! 17.99$)
    3)solugel (prescription, biiiig zits only! around 25$)
    4) BB light coverage cream... amaaazing. Has an SPF of 30 and evens out skin nicely. Basically a moisturizer with some tint :) (8-11.99 depending on store)
    4) NYC face powder (It's like 3$ at my pharmacy!)

    This stuff has worked miracles for me. I have practically perfect skin now! :)

    edit: Scent wise - I use the vanila and sweet pea sprays from Bath & body works :)

    I like that you have something to help clear breakouts. I break out once a month due to hormones. And I might want to try the #4 tinted SPF moisturizer too... want to go a little lighter than foundation/powder which I usually don't make time for anyhow.

    i use a lot of products in the dermalogica line. they are more pricey but are the best products i've ever used--my skin has never been clearer or more glow-y. they are a very research and science driven company and do not test on animals. most of the products have a slightly clinical feel (i.e. clean packaging and very little scent) so def not on the girly side--but EFFECTIVE!

    Avon Anew is the best. I was using Clinique which is an EXCELLENT skincare line, but I prefer Anew...the results for my skin has been much quicker and more dramatic dramatic.

    I also like Dr. Brandt's poreless line, and Peter Thomas Roth's Body wash's...these two lines are on the pricer side though.

    My skin is really sensitive. I use Bobbi Brown moisturizer, face wash, and make-up too. I do like Lush as well.

    Best face wash. Really gentle, but even gets off eye makeup. My favorite I've tried thus far.

    I have tried dozens and dozens of products - I have very sensitive skin. I liked Dermalogica, but then I found Epionce. (sp?) Loved it but then had a case of serious sticker shock when I went to buy it. Then I tried Lancome products and I am officially in love. People have been telling me my skin is glowing for months now - it hasn't looked this good since I was 18. :)

    Gotta ask --> What are you using from Lancome?

    Thanks!
