Sponsor Blue-eyedBelle 04-15-2004, 09:14 AM You're going to laugh when you see mine - it looks pretty complicated - but it's really not once you get into the habit of doing it. :) Mornings on Sun., Mon., Tues., Wed., Fri., Sat.: Rinse face with water Apply 3 drops Exfol serum diluted with 5 squirts toner Apply DMAE serum Apply 1 drop Emu oil & 2 drops homemade facial oil diluted with 5 squirts toner Apply sunscreen 1 drop Aromaleigh Eye Synergy serum with a little foundation - dab gently under & over eyes Mornings on Thurs.: Rinse face with water Apply DMAE serum Apply 1 drop Emu oil & 2 drops homemade facial oil diluted with 5 squirts toner Apply sunscreen 1 drop Aromaleigh Eye Synergy serum with a little foundation - dab gently under & over eyes.

I also use Clinique T-zone gel every day after using the Proactiv. Every other day I use St. Ives Apricot scrub... I use it more often then recommended because I get flakey otherwise... and sometimes I'll use Clearasil cleansing cloths... probably once or twice a week. Once a week I'll do a facial and I use my facial spa thing every few months. If I get dry for whatever reason, I use Clinique moisturizer, but that rarely happens. Compared to Blue-eyedBelle... mine sounds pretty simple! :) Blue-eyedBelle 04-15-2004, 12:23 PM Compared to Blue-eyedBelle... mine sounds pretty simple! :) LOL! It looks a lot more complicated than it is - most of the days & evenings are alike except for a product or two. But since I'm often thought to be 10 years younger than my chronological age, I think I'll stick with my regimen! :D robste 04-15-2004, 12:42 PM Until this week, (when I purchased a new skincare line to try) my skincare regime has been: Mornings every day: Wash face: Ponds Dramatic Results Age Defying Rich Foaming Cleanser Apply: Lumene (brand) Lifting Skin Supporter Day-Firming Day Cream on face & neck Apply: A few dots of the same Lumene Firming Day Cream under eyes Apply: A drop of Lumene Lifting Magic Drops Instant Beautifyer under eyes & around the mouth area. Every Evening: Remove eyemakeup with Andrea Eye Q's Eye Makeup Remover Pads Repeat using all products listed for Mornings Every Day Once or Twice a Week: In The Morning: While in the shower, use a facial buff puff with my regular cleanser to slough off dead skin cells (exfoliate) on face. Every Night: Apply hand lotion to my hands before going to bed (brands vary) I'd also like to mention that I have normal skin (as opposed to dry or combination), never break out except maybe one zit at pms time, and I am 44 yrs old. I must be doing something right, because no one ever believes my age...most people guess I'm between 31-36 years old. robste 04-15-2004, 01:01 PM I just posted my previous skincare regime. The following is my New regime that I began two days ago: (I wasn't unhappy with the old regime, I just wanted to try a new product line that is developed by a dermatologist) The skincare line I just started using is called: Dr. Perricone's Anti-Aging Line (N.V. Perricone, M.D. Cosmeceuticals) Every Morning: Wash face: with ALA Nutritive Cleanser, rinse well with warm water & pat dry. Apply: 1-2 pumps ALA Face Firming Activator Face Treatment to entire face Apply: Face Finishing Moisturizer to entire face Apply: VCE Eye Area Therapy under entire eye,patting lightly with finger Apply: ALA Eye Area Therapy under entire eye, patting lightly with finger (both of the Eye Area Therapy's can be mixed together before you apply them) Every Evening: Repeat exact same routine as for morning, Except add VCE Concentrated Restorative Cream (face treatment) by applying to entire face in the evening. Use after cleansing. Moisturize for additional hydration. Use every night. Every Evening Before Going To Bed: Apply hand lotion or creme (brands vary...but I could use a good suggestion if anyone has a great handlotion that they use) -Robin Girlie19 04-15-2004, 02:49 PM Morning and night: *Wash with Cetaphil gentle cleanser *Moisturize with Neutrogena combination skin moisturizer Once in a blue moon: *Exfoliate with St. Ives apricot scrub Did I loose anyone? I understand it's complicated... LOL. :p robste 04-15-2004, 05:11 PM Morning and night: *Wash with Cetaphil gentle cleanser *Moisturize with Neutrogena combination skin moisturizer Once in a blue moon: *Exfoliate with St. Ives apricot scrub Did I loose anyone? I understand it's complicated... LOL. :p :rolleyes: Girlie, yep, you lost me, 'cause your skincare regime is way too simple...lol. I assume from your posting name (Girlie19) that you're very young. If so, just wait until you get to be my age...you too can have a complicated skincare routine! (just kidding) Seriously, sometimes the simplest products & the fewest are best. I just decided to try a new skincare line (at least new to me) that I'd heard great things about, got a sampler kit of six products, and am starting to try them all out. My skin is getting a little drier in areas (like under my eyes) and I want to avoid those dreaded wrinkles that time gives us all, so I am starting to take better care of my skin. Before, I was just washing my face and using a moisturizer on my face & the same moisturizer under my eyes, but I thought it was about time to start using eye moisturizers & treatments. My new regime is really not complicated...it just looks that way when I type it all out. lol -Robin Girlie19 04-15-2004, 06:03 PM I'm 22. :cool: I was 19 when I signed up and it feels like yesterday! :eek: Saka 04-15-2004, 07:01 PM My skin care regime has changed a bit over the past few years because I've been trying to prevent breakouts. But I've found out that my breakouts are probably internal and due to hormones. I've started taking Diane-ED bcp and it has had such a bit improvement. Anyway, my regime is this: Morning every day Cleanse with Joyce Blok Neroli Cream Cleanser Tone with Joyce Blok Toner Apply Joyce Blok eye cream and facial moisturiser Night Mon, Wed, Fri Cleanse Remove eye makeup with Loreal Eye makeup remover Exfoliate with Neutrogena exfoliator Tone Apply Joyce Blok moisturising mask Night Tues, Thurs, Sat, Sun Cleanse Remove eye makeup Tone Moisturise with eye cream and facial moisturiser My boyfriend thinks I do heaps to my skin but it isn't that much. And if it keeps my face clear then I'll keep doing it. *Amy 04-16-2004, 05:24 PM I wash my face daily with Johnsons & Johnsons Purpose soap and use Clean & Clear Dual moisturizer w/Salicylic acid everyday and use a little walgreens brand eye cream around my eyes at night. At least once a week I use Neurogena's Pore Reducing face wash and toner. robste 04-16-2004, 05:44 PM I wash my face daily with Johnsons & Johnsons Purpose soap and use Clean & Clear Dual moisturizer w/Salicylic acid everyday and use a little walgreens brand eye cream around my eyes at night. At least once a week I use Neurogena's Pore Reducing face wash and toner. Amy, does the Neutrogenia Pore Reducing face wash and toner really reduce the size of your pores? Is it very drying? I have normal skin, but I'm getting older (44), so I don't want something that will dry out my skin. But, I've noticed lately, that my pores seem larger. I've just started a new skin care regime (posted on here previously), so I'm wondering if it's just "cleaning out" my pores and they just look larger to me because of that. -Robin Shy One 04-17-2004, 02:56 AM I've been trying out a lot of new products lately but right now my regimen is... Morning: St. Ives Apricot Scub for Sensitive Skin (I really love this stuff... it makes your skin so soft) Neutrogena on The Spot Clean and Clear Shine Control Moisturizer Night: Phisoderm Deep Cleansing Wash (The white kind without acne treatment... it contains Vitamin E, Aloe, and Camomile... I like it a lot) Neutrogena On The Spot Clean and Clear Shine Control Moisturizer About once or twice a week I use Queen Helen's Mint Julup Masque Also a lot of the time I skip the topicals and moisterizers at night :wave: lauho68 04-17-2004, 01:21 PM Morning: Wash face with warm water Silkia camellia oil Sunscreen Night: Wash face with Aveeno Clear Complexion Foaming Cleanser Elizabeth Arden Ceramide Defining Skin Brightener Silkia camellia oil Occasionally I use the camellia oil with microderm and the results are wonderful. Once two weeks: St. Ives Apricot Scrub |
