How should I organize my skin care regimen?
I have many problems with my facial skin, and there are many products for these problems. I want to know if I should be using all these products at once. If so, in which order? If not, how should I use them? What should I not be using? Here are the products I use and what I’m using them for:
-Target brand witch hazel (said online to help reduce redness,irritation,and acne)
-Target Brand Alcohol (spot treatment to dry out pimples)
-Target Brand Sunscreen (As the name implies)
-Clean and Clear Daily Pore Cleanser (facial cleanser)
-L’oreal Paris Dermo-Expertise Hydrafresh Toner (to reduce pore size and moisturize)
-L’oreal Paris Skin-Expertise go 360 Clean Deep Exfoliating Scrub (Exfoliating facial cleanser)
-Ambi Skin Care Fade Cream (to remove acne and body scars)
-Mederma for Scars (to remove acne and body scars)
-Dr. Earles Blemish Remover & Hydrating Cream (spot treatment for pimples)
Thank you so much for all of you that answer!!!
Witch hazel is very good for acne! If it is in liquid form apply it with a cotton ball or cotton pad after you have cleansed your face, twice a day.
Sunscreen is very important and its good to hear you are using it :)
Obviously after you have washed your face and used the witch hazel apply it as you would a moisturizer. Not too much or it may make your skin oily.
I have found that Clean & Clear products really irritate my skin and when I had bad acne the products added to my problem. If you have a Body Shop in your city they have an amazing Tea Tree Oil facial cleanser..it worked magic on my face! If not, any Tea Tree Oil Cleanser will probably be amazing.
I only treat my skin with organic or natural products. After years of trying everything from proactiv, to neutrogena and clean & clear, I have found natural products really work amazing.
Some tips are to not apply moisturizer to your problem areas (such as t-zone or wherever you break out a lot) even if your moisturizer isn’t necessarily oily it can add oil that you don’t want your problems to feed off of.
Don’t use all of your products at once. Stick to a Cleanser, Toner and moisturizer + sunscreen combo. Don’t over do it. In the long run, less is better and doesn’t stress your skin.
