Your skincare routine

[Saints]

What is your skincare routine? It would be great if you could describe your routine in the morning and evening, and if you use e.g. exfoliator or other masks a couple of times how often do you do it?

In the evening I've been removing my foundation with Nivea makeup remover wipes, then apply L'Oreal Hydrafresh mousturizer. I take a shower every morning and after that I use Hydrafresh mousturizer before applying my makeup. About 1x a week I use Kanebo silk peeling powder for removing dead skin cells.

I just bought L'Oreal Hydra confort Mousturising cleansing milk and Mousturising toner instead of the Nivea wipes I used at night though...

Once in a while when my skin is feeling really dry I'll try a mousturising mask.

In the morning, I use Neutrogena Blackhead Clearing scrub, then Clean and Clear Acne Foaming face wash, or Noxema (sp?) Triple Action wash. When I get out of the shower, I put on Clean and Clear moisturizer. I don't usually use toner in the morning to avoid looking red.

I just use face wash at night, and put on C + C toner, then moisturizer.

 

[Salope]

Morning:

I wash with either Dove or a Boots facial cleansing bar. Then I use La Roche Posay Active C and Clinique Advanced Anti-Aging with SPF 15 for my eye area. I follow with Oil of Olay complete moisturizer with SPF 30.

Night:

I wash with the same as above. I follow with Active C for my face & Active C for my eyes (different products) and then with a drugstore brand Vitamin E moisturizer.

Masks/Exfoliators:

I use Kiehl's Papaya Scrub about 4 times a week in the shower.

I use Boots Cleansing Mask about once every two weeks.

Neutrogena Facial Peel about once a week now. I was using it twice a week but I got lazy. =X

Some of the product names I listed may not be totally correct.

 

[pieced]

I'll start with the evening:

1) Wash my face as soon as I get home, with Hydrafreah cleansing gel from L'oreal.

2) Whipe my face and neck with a toner, to take away extra dirt.

3) Apply oil of Ulay night moisturizer

In the morning:

1) Wash face with cold water to get the blood circulation going and to dimish the look of tried eyes.

2) Apply eye cream

3) Apply Face cream, Dermalogica

These next steps are rare:

4) Apply Mascara

5) Whipe away excess mascara from the eye lids

6) Foundation on the T-zones and under eyes

7) Eye primer

8) Eyeshadow and blending and working with it until it's perfect

9) Eye line on lower lashes

10) Powder under eyes

11) Blush

12) Vasaline on lips

13) Perfume

AM

I first splash my face with tepid water and then wash my face with Clarins Gentle Foaming Cleanser.

Then I pat my skin dry and apply Clarins moisturiser with SPF 15.

I don't use a toner because I think it's a bit of a waste of time - just my opinion but it doesnt do anything for me.

PM

same as above

Once a week I apply a clay face mask and twice a week I exfoliate with Origins never a dull moment! :icon_chee

AM:

Dermadoctor Wrinkle Revenge 3 (20% glycolic acid wash)

DHC soft lotion toner (sometimes)

DHC Olive leaf milk moisturizer on eyes if needed

Oil of Olay sunscreen (the skin brightening one with 15 SPF; I find it's lighter than the 30, though also more $$ :icon_sad: )

(Used to use Vit C - want to find a good product then start that again)

PM:

Oil based cleanser (like DHC) to remove makeup, if needed

Dermadoctor Wrinkle Revenge 3

DHC soft lotion

DHC Olive Leaf Milk everywhere but nose and chin

Lip balm

Still looking for an "anti-aging" treatment or serum for eyes, interested in copper peptides but find the whole topic overwhelming and confusing

2ce a week (when I'm good) - Oil of olay microdermabrasion kit (I wash with Obagi instead of dermadoctor on these days)

1ce a week (when I'm very very good--almost never) - Mint Julip mask
