I'm a cheapo who was quite surprised by Dove's foaming cleanser and their day lotion with SPF. Zero breakouts, zero irratation, zero flaky skin.

Kiehl's Blue herbal gel cleanser is good for oily skin and acne problem

 

[rayncloudx]

Right now i'm using origins get down deep pore clay cleanser. very happy with the results.

before that, i was using kiehl's blue astringent gel cleanser and toner but it didn't do much for my skin. i'm going to go back to olay refreshing toner.
i don't know if this is the point of a toner but i've found that it really strips your skin of dirt and you actually see the cotton pad turn yellow. it's gross. but my face feels clean afterwards and i'm going to start using olay again because i see more dirt come out than when using kiehl's.


for masks i switch between kiehl's rare earth facial cleansing mask and queen helene mint julep mask. i don't know whether they're working or not. can't tell.

for moisturizers, i use origins a perfect world white tea skin guardian. it's not really a moisturizer. it's supposed to be something you put on before moisturizing but whatever. it's nice because it's very light and silky.

 

[evisu donna]

I only use the natural creme of Nivea, and L'oréal make-up remover

 

[fleur137]

hmmm anyone know where you can get oatmeal masks in Australia? cos i wanna try. Oh and I wanna know how you use Shea Butter, cos i have some at home. I'm not quite sure if i've used it correctly but do u just apply it like its cream? cos i found it greasy and somewhat sticky...but ppl say its good for your skin...

never heard of the name before

 

[Browneyes]

^ they are products originally from Germany, and well, i have had very good results with them
There is a thread on Dr Hauschka here at tFS if you do a search, if you're interested in knowing more about them

They are sold in some big department stores (i know Harvey Nichols in London, Magasin in Copenhagen, and a big one in Berlin (but i forgot the name) has them) but they are also sold in health stores.

 

[suvari]

Oh thank you! I'm gonna look it up

 

[QueenE]

though its a face wash i looooovee the bodyshop's tea tree oil wash. moisturises dry skin but doesnt make oily skin worse and it really makes our face soooft

 

[titania]

I love love love the Jurlique range because it smells great and it's organic. I'm using the Face Wash Cream (it's actually a soft mushie face scrub/exfoliator), Cleansing Lotion, Pure Rosewater Freshener (as a sort of toner) and the Daily Face Care Lotion. I used to use Clinique and Biotherm, Clinique was pretty okay. I'd love to use SKII though.

Neutrogena DEEP CLEAN scrub

 

[kathyjeanc]

i have a few products in rotation right now, and the standout star is kiehl's pineapple papaya scrub

 

[ms_prissy]

neutrogena extra gentle cleanse and cetaphil moisterizor (hate their cleanser though!)

 

[Heri]

I tried a lot of products and I agree that every skin is different, now I just use:
keratoplast cream soap and chamomile lotion from Mario Badescu (because my skin is very sensitive and often with redness)
a night moisturizer for impure skin from L'erbolario, this is absolutely great!
a scrub once a week, now I'm using one from my dermatologist.
That's all.

Scrubs & exfoliators are great & essential to the "skincare regime", but certainly not best for people w/ highly acneic skin..

Right now, Ive been using the Dermalogica line...Great products & reasonable price-point (with this line, I feel the old adage "You get what you paid for" definitely applies)..
