I really need a routine for my skin at night, and I’ve heard people say if you’re going to buy skin care products, buy the 3-step ones with a cleanser, toner, and acne treatment. Which CHEAP skin care products like this work best for oily skin?
I’ve had pretty decent skin thus far in my life, but I decided to start using Proactive to maintain nice, clean, and clear skin. I Which it has worked well for me, but I was wondering if I would start breaking out if I stopped using it? (FYI: I NEVER had acne before I started using Proactive.)
ok so i have acne and i need to no what some good skin care products are to use for it
please help!!
i have acne medicine(retin-a micro), a cleanser, and a moustrizer.
i’m getting a toner tomorrow.
my dermatologist told me to clean my face, and while it’s still wet apply the moustrizer. then when its all dry i put on the acne medicine. when would i put on the toner?
and what if i ever want to use a scrub on my face? would i use that before i was my face?
thanks for the help!
Help !! :D I have acne/combination skin! >< and it’s hard to find make-up that doesn’t cake or anything when i put it on , any ideas? :S I’ve had acne since i was 11 and started wearing make-up when i was 12.. i just wore some powder from nivea and was always worrying about it, i remember in latin i sat at the back of the class and i’d try and secretly put it on. and in class i’d accidently pick a spot and always be asking for a tissue.. yeah.. good memories.. –’ lol. to be honest i would LOVE to be able not to wear make-up and have to bother with it all but i’d look like i just came out of world war three if i didn’t so yeah >< not guna happen, for the moment anyway :( :3
i mostly have a oily T-zone and then the rest of my face is pretty dry and sensitive..
i thought that seeing as my t-zone was where my acne was, i had oily skin so i tryed a ‘oil-free balancing’ foundation from the Body shop but argh!! nope!! lol. it would not blend at all and just stuck on my skin and bought all my pores out and just looked very cakey- big no.
so i tryed the ‘moisture’ foundation from the bodyshop, wich is what i’ve been using until recently-
i do really like it but i find that it tends to come off alot, especially round my nose and goes shiny..
was always having to ‘blotch’ it with those little paper thingys but i ran out pretty quickly :L…
i have tryed a Nivea foundation ‘pure&natural’ but either it was the wrong colour and too heavy..(trouble is live in the countryside in france an most of the shops are quite far away, there is a big supermarket with some makeup but the trouble is you can’t test it to try it out! :( .. i did however find a packet with some ‘mousse’ foundation that was open, so i decided to open the whole thing and test it but it wasn’t right anyway -shh!- (a) haha ) in the end i bought some l’oreal foundation for 15 euros, i haven’t tryed it for a whole school day yet but it seems much better coverage wise :) though it has a brush, i prefer to use a sponge otherwise it doesn’t look right!
so i guess i have dry skin but very sensitive? or combination ? blah xD.
anyone have any ideas for foundations/powders that they think might work? :) xox
or even any skincare products they’d recomend, moisturisers.. anything basically, would be MUCH appreciated !!!! :-)
My routine:
wash my face with warm water and pat it a bit
use 1pump of the clearasil multiaction gel stuff
moisturise ( a garnier one ’24hrs moisturizing care-eliminates the imperfections’ wich i use on my T-zone and then a Nivea shine controle wich i used on my cheeks etc, though sometimes i do prefer to use it all over my face after the garnier one as i find my face looks more ‘evened out’ colour wise..?)
*sometimes* primer from the body shop
a concealer pen from garnier ’2in1 Anti-spots roll-on’
then a concealer wich i put under my eyes
l’orĂ©al foundation
and voila!. if i don’t use a primer then some of my mums powder but she doesn’t really have the same colour or anything so it’s not that good lol!
i have dark brown hair with lighter brown goldyhighlights, quite pale skin, feeew freckles on the top of my cheeks,browny/hazel eyes, and yep.. :)
Is there any make-up for me out there? Lol :) should i ask a doctor/dermatologist (or however you spell that) what make-up is best for my skin? :/! :)x
I am a young boy and I have quite oily skin and it can sometimes be a little dry. I have lots of spots, rare blackheads, pimples, zits etc. and I am very fed up. Today I picked up some new products as I don’t think my old products were actually working. Here is the list along with the links

Please tell me what you think, read the description, reviews etc.
Here is what I know, exfoliate (L’oreal scrub) 2-3 times per week, Sunday and Tuesday
Cleanse every morning and night, after cleansing use a toner, then a moisturiser. Before I go to bed I use Differin Cream for acne. My sister got it prescribed by the doctor for her, she keeps it in her room, so I always forget to ask her for it, so I don’t use it every night. ALSO, I haven’t had a chance to use any of these new products yet as I only bought them today and I still need to finish my old ones off :)
Thanks very much for answers!
I’m a teenager and I have mild acne. Of course this can be caused by many things like hormones, bacteria, diet, and not taking care of my skin properly. I need a good facial cleanser and moisturizer that will take this acne away as well as prevent new acne from appearing. I also need to get a good makeup like bare minerals so do you know any stores I can buy it from other than online?
Thanks a bunch.
I don’t have alot of money to spend on cleansers for my face. Probably around 35 dollars( trust me that is not alot) what are the best acne cleansers you could get for this money! Thanks and 10 points for best answer
I have very oily, sensitive, acne prone skin. I’m 14 years old, what is a good skin care regame for me? I’ve been through so many different cleansing products, saint ives, clean and clear, ect and nothing seems to work for me. All clean and clear products seem to leave dry peeling patches on my skin. I have large pores, acne on my forehead, and the sides of my nose, and blackheads all over my nose (clean and clear blackhead scrub works good on that). But I’ve been thinking of buying the clarosonic, or some electronic skin system. I’m willing to spend any amount on something that will help me.
My mom doesn’t think I need proactiv because she thinks my acne isn’t that bad (and its really not as bad as the proactiv commercials) and she also doesn’t want to risk me getting acne scars.
Sorry this was so long, but in a nutshell, what skin care products are good for oily, SUPER SENSETIVE skin? Something that willl not dry out my skin! Something natural, perferably organic..like aveeno? And would the clarosonic be right for me? Is it worth the money it costs? Thanks so much!
I have very sensitive skin that is oily and I have acne scars and ocassional breakouts but my acne isn’t too bad. I can use certain skin care for a while and it works awesome. But after a while my skin breaks out badly like it got used to what I was using and it doesn’t work anymore. I would like to use natural products. Any suggestions. I would also like something that will take my makeup off when I wash my face. I have used stuff you can buy at target and walmart an it doesn’t work. Thank you!!!! :)
