I just wanted to say that I have recently discovered Clarins as well. I love it. I was using clinique for so long and I was never satisfied. I guess I* always thought that I wasn't using the correct stuff or that I was just destined to be covered in blackheads forever. But I don't feel that way anymore. I feel free!!! It is very expensive, but I feel like it is a worthwhile investment. BTW, My husband saw your picture next to your post and he complimented your skin.

[swibby28]

I just read my post and I realize I should clarify!!

I use the one step exfoliating cleanser, the toner for combo skin, the lotus oil, and the brightening day lotion SPF 20. The SA at the counter talked me into attempting to give up my alcohol laden toners and I feel happy that I did. My skin is soft, supple, and not covered in blackheads.

And the compliment at the end of my previous post goes to reija.

Laura Girl!!!Oh my Gosh! You are crackin' me up!!! I thought I was the only one who knew about the Olive Oil (actually I switched to First Cold Pressed Soy Oil as it suited my skin type and complextion a little better- I still use the Olive Oil on my feet). I used it mixed with my moistuizer. It is economical and gives you a great glow!I also do not use toner. Good Girl. They just dry out your skin and usually upset the P.H. balance(with the possible exception of ACV).

You have great, healthy-looking skin

Laura and Elizabeth, "oh yeah!" on the olive oil!

TONER: Lelan Vital Eau Miracle (use only at night)

MOISTURIZER: Night: Olay Regenerist Serum and Yves Rocher vitaminised gel; Day: A local product that contains titanium dioxide.

EYE CREAM: Don't Use One

EXFOLIATOR: Himalaya Herbal Gentle Apricot Scrub

ACNE TREATMENT: T3 pimple gel when necessary

MASK: Yves Rocher Radiance Mask

 

[adairskee]

Hey, new to the board and first post:

SKIN TYPE: oily- but only slightly oily in cheek area, then T zone is pretty shiny. Sometimes a few small pimples near my menstrual cycle.

CLEANSER: Proactiv Deep Cleansing wash (2% salicylic acid with exfoliating beads in it, does a great job)- this IS NOT the cleanser they give you with the kit. I don't like that one.

TONER: Either the Proactiv toner, or Clinique Clarifying lotion #3

MOISTURISER (day and/or night): Day- Oil of Olay Total Effects Anti-Aging/Anti Blemish, or the Proactiv moisturizer which containts 2.5% benzoyl peroxide. I usually use the Oil of Olay for Day and the benzoyl peroxide at night, since it's stronger and can zap out any xits I may have while I sleep.

EYE CREAM: This Mary Kay stuff? I forget what it's called.

FACIAL WASH: I really only use the Proactiv Deep Cleansing Wash.

EXFOLIATOR: I switch between Mary Kay Microdermabrasion and Oil of Olay Thermal Skin Polisher.

ACNE TREATMENT: Just the benzoyl peroxide lotion that I sometimes use.

MASK: In the winter I LOVE L'Occitane's Honey Comfort mask, for pimples I use Proactiv's Refining Mask (it does a really good job as a spot treatment, too) and for just plain old oilies I use Freeman's Avocado and Oatmeal Purifying mask. It's green and not as intense as Queen Helene's mint julep which I personally find too intense wit han overwhelming mint fragrance.
