She has some fantastic stuff for all skintypes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/face-washroutine#post-2306263 Wed, 30 Sep 2015 11:43:50 +0000 MoonMoon 2306263@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jetsa: yeah it doesn't hurt to try! Especially in the winter, my face really reacts to washing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/face-washroutine#post-2306258 Wed, 30 Sep 2015 11:38:19 +0000 MrsKoala 2306258@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Try the Oil Cleansing Method. It might seem counterintuitive but it is the best thing that I've done for my oily skin. I wash my face with grapeseed oil every night and my skin looks a million times better than it used to (even got a compliment from a woman who gave me a facial). Basically, what you are doing right now with your cleansing routine is stripping your skin of its natural oils and so it is overproducing to make up for it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/face-washroutine#post-2306251 Wed, 30 Sep 2015 11:34:25 +0000 jetsa 2306251@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MoonMoon: I actually just started washing more and have been breaking out more. I never considered that I could be causing it, hmm. Well that is an easy and inexpensive thing to test :). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/face-washroutine#post-2306241 Wed, 30 Sep 2015 11:24:05 +0000 MoonMoon 2306241@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Have you tried oil cleansing, or washing your face less? For me, it helped to only wash my face with soap cleanser a few times a week and use only cool water other times. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/face-washroutine#post-2306207 Wed, 30 Sep 2015 10:53:47 +0000 LuLu Mom 2306207@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use eye make-up remover from Mary Kay, and face wipes (sensitive skin ones from Target.) Then at night I wash my face with Cetaphil and moisturize. In the mornings I wash with Mary Kay Timewise (only thing that doesn't make me react) and use their CC cream as foundation. It works for me and I have super sensitive skin. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/face-washroutine#post-2306202 Wed, 30 Sep 2015 10:48:43 +0000 blackbird 2306202@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use basic cetaphil and a Renee Rouleau toner. Once a week I use a clarisonic brush. Shesheido moisturiser. No face makeup, just blush </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/face-washroutine#post-2306176 Wed, 30 Sep 2015 10:32:30 +0000 yellowbird 2306176@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was breaking out like a teenager until I completely changed my skincare routine and stopped using harsh chemicals and cleansers.</p> <p>I use burts bees radiance face wash, pat dry then apply Ava Anderson hyaluronic acid, moisturizer and bb cream. I don't let anything else touch my face! My acne is completely under control and skin in super smooth. It's super amazing. I do the same thing at night minus the bb cream. </p> <p>I love the Ava Anderson cleanser too, but apparently I use too much because I was running out all the time and I would supplement with the burts bees wash. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/face-washroutine#post-2306166 Wed, 30 Sep 2015 10:22:36 +0000 looch 2306166@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would go and see a dermatologist. I thought I had oily, acne prone skin and instead, I have sensitive, normal skin with rosacea!</p> <p>I like very basic products, things like cetaphil for washing, with a mild exfoliator once a week. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/face-washroutine#post-2306165 Wed, 30 Sep 2015 10:22:18 +0000 Eko 2306165@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use proactiv. One thing I absolutely love is my cleanser brush. That thing alone has been so good for my skin. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/face-washroutine#post-2306164 Wed, 30 Sep 2015 10:20:56 +0000 MOMTOLITTLEB 2306164@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I can't join the raves for the Clarisonic. I have one but I don't use it because my skin is so sensitive. I was never impressed with it. </p> <p>I wear makeup everyday, so I remove my makeup with an oil based cleanser (Banila Clean it Zero), use a gentle foaming cleanser, spot clean with extra eye makeup remover if needed, Paula's Choice 2% BHA then moisturize.</p> <p>That is my routine and I'm fairly happy with it but it's hard to say what will work for someone else. I've learned a few things from this community:<br /> <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/SkincareAddiction/" rel="nofollow">https://www.reddit.com/r/SkincareAddiction/</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/face-washroutine#post-2306155 Wed, 30 Sep 2015 10:15:32 +0000 gingerbebe 2306155@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Because its still warm where I live, I wash my face with Missha Super Aqua (Korean cleanser available at Amazon) at night, exfoliating instead a few times a week. Then I moisturize with Kiehl's 24 Hour Ultra Facial Cream and go to sleep. In the morning, I just slap a little water on my face and if needed, a dab more Kiehl's cream, and then proceed with my makeup.</p> <p>If its dry/colder, then I may moisturize twice (still only washing my face once) and I switch to the original Cetaphil cleanser (the kind that doesn't foam).</p> <p>*ETA: I use Clinique Perfectly Real foundation - its SUPER sheer and light and has never given me any problems. I have more problems with BB creams than anything else. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/face-washroutine#post-2306153 Wed, 30 Sep 2015 10:13:55 +0000 Mommy Finger 2306153@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm going to second the Clarisonic Mia. I always had bad skin but started using the Mia in the shower every morning and my skin is clear and looks good. I still have some blotchiness but a little powder clears that right up. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/face-washroutine#post-2306147 Wed, 30 Sep 2015 10:06:03 +0000 avivoca 2306147@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm here for solidarity. I turn 30 on Saturday and my skin is the worst it's ever been. I found that I break out more using the Maybelline BB cream, so I stopped using that. Currently, I'm using Say Yes to Cucumbers Cleansing Milk and Alba Botanica Hawaiian oil-free moisturizer. There is a Fresh moisturizer that I want to try, but I'd like to keep my products at easy to get to places like Target and Kroger. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/face-washroutine#post-2306146 Wed, 30 Sep 2015 10:05:26 +0000 .twist. 2306146@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use Fresh face wash, which claims to be good for all skin types. </p> <p>I used to use Clinique, but their toner gives me major burny face. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/face-washroutine#post-2306143 Wed, 30 Sep 2015 10:01:50 +0000 Mrs D 2306143@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use clinique products. My skin has gone through stages and they have always been able to find me the perfect product. I have never had a bad reaction to any of their products. I currently (33) use the Turnaround line along with their liquid cleanser at night.</p> <p>I second @catlady: on the Mia...I love mine! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/face-washroutine#post-2306138 Wed, 30 Sep 2015 09:58:10 +0000 catlady 2306138@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Some of the things I use that seem to help my skin (which I've been battling since I was a teen) are:<br /> - Clarisonic - can't recommend this highly enough, I absolutely love it. I have the cheaper Mia and it still works great.<br /> - AHA or BHA - I use Paula's Choice. You need to experiment a bit to see which type (liquid, gel) and concentration works best for you. I use 8% AHA gel every night and it makes a big difference. Many people wear by BHA though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/face-washroutine#post-2306110 Wed, 30 Sep 2015 09:40:59 +0000 jetsa 2306110@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am breaking out worse now than when I was a teenager and I need a new skincare routine.</p> <p>I wear Maybelline Dream Pure BB 8-in-1 Beauty Balm Skin Clearing Perfector 1-2 a week and go bare faced every other day so I do not think its the makeup.</p> <p>Currently I am just using Cetaphil DermaControl Oil Control Foam Wash day and night and it is not helping.</p> <p>Help me please! I turn 30 :shocked: in April and would love to get this under control. </p>
