One thing I've learned is stick to what you know best and what's best for you.
I have sensitive skin and have struggled through a mass of regimens of fails and wants. I've used several products only for the same product to no longer work because I suppose my skin has gotten accustomed to it, developing some sort of resistance or the formula has changed in some way. I've wanted to try several infomercial products but thought of chances it may be the same case as any other product. Not to mention being locked into some ongoing subscription.
Let me say that I'm not a licensed anesthetician nor dermatologist and I don't play one on TV. I'm only sharing what is working for me in maintaining healthy skin for my face.
It may seem a bit much, but hey, it works for me. I often wear a full face of makeup during workdays. If I get breakouts I know exactly why: eating too much chocolate, grease, and/ or sweets.
Wash- Neutrogena Acne Wash for the salicylic acid (if I have pimples trying to surface)
(or)
Olay Gentle Clean (if nothing's going on with my face)
Moisturize- Bamma Butter www.bandbenterprisetx.com with added frankincense oil & vitamin E
- Wash hands
- Remove makeup with a makeup remover wipe
- Apply coconut oil with tea-tree essential oil. I mix a batch of coconut oil with a little tea-tree essential oil.
- Apply baking soda on face
- Moisten a cotton pad with apple cider vinegar. Wipe face.
- Rinse face with lukewarm water
- Pat dry with a cotton washcloth/ towel.
Wash- liquid African Black Soap
Moisturize- Vitamin E & rose hip seed oil
*Mondays, Wednesdays, & Fridays- face brush with Mario Badescu Glycolic Foaming Cleanser for the glycolic acid.
Extra:
For sunscreen protection and especially during the Summer I use Neutrogena Healthy Defense daily moisturizer. It's not greasy at all and doesn't cause breakouts.
If you have questions regarding what I do during this routine, ask me. I'd love to hear from you and know what's your routine.
