Skin Tone: Fair
Skin Type: Combination/Sensitive/Acne Prone (lucky me!)
Hair Color: Red-Auburn (I switch between coloring my hair myself and having it professionally colored)
Eye Color: Dark Brown
Skin Problems: Adult cystic acne, keratosis pilaris
Current products I am using:
Shampoo/Conditioner: L'Oreal EverPure Volumizing (the tubes with the green caps)
Face Wash: St. Ives Apricot Scrub for Oily or Acne Prone Skin (I honestly can't believe how well this works!) I also use AcneFree Oil Free Purifying Cleanser when I have breakouts, and I do love RareMinerals Renew and Reveal Facial Cleanser.
Toner: RareMinerals Moisture Burst Facial Mist
Treatments: I have quite a few! Advanced RevitaLift Anti-Wrinkle Concentrate High Potency Serum goes on top of my cheekbones and across my forehead, sometimes in the corners of my mouth when I don't have breakouts. Once a week I use a peel - right now I'm using Philosophy Microdelivery Purifying Peel. The best face mask I use is Queen Helene Mint Julep Mask - it's inexpensive and contains sulfur to cleanse skin and dry up any breakouts.
Moisturizer AM: This all depends on my skin at the time. I mostly use Bare Minerals Purely Nourishing Moisturizer, but now they make a different formulation for combination skin which I will be trying soon.
Moisturizer PM: REN Frankencense Revitalizing Night Cream - this one is a bit spendy at $55, but SO worth it! I tried a sample from Sephora and was instantly hooked.
Eye Treatment AM: Roc CompleteLift Eye Cream
Eye Treatment PM: RareMinerals Triple Action Eye Cream
My body wash and body lotion are constantly changing. As of today, I am using Dr. Bronner's Magic Soaps 18-in-1 Hemp Peppermint Pure-Castile Soap. It is INCREDIBLE! It's much more than a body wash - you can use it as a multi-purpose cleaner, a dish soap, you can even clean fruit and vegetables with it! This company has a long interesting history, most of which you can read about on the bottle's eccentric label. All Natural Organic Certified Ingredients; Bio-Degradable; Packaged In 100% Post Consumer Recycled Bottles; No Animal Testing And Cruelty Free. What more could you ask for?
For body lotion, I am currently using Nutraderm. I can't find it in any drugstores here, so I order it from drugstore.com. It has alpha hydroxy acids in it which help exfoliate and moisturize. Especially helpful for keratosis. I DON'T like that this lotion contains mineral oil and petrolatum products. I'm trying to find a better body lotion that doesn't contain these products, certified organic ingredients would be preferred. Have a suggestion? Contact me!
I'm sure this list will be changing a lot since I am always trying new and improved products.
