I just buy things as I need them. I have been using mainly l'Occitane products over the last year but I can buy them at the commissary so they are much cheaper than retail. I find my products last at least 6 months if not longer, so it's hard to calculate on a quarterly basis. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/skincare-routine-cost/page/2#post-2390041 Wed, 16 Dec 2015 02:38:18 +0000 SugarplumsMom 2390041@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've never added up the costs. My permanent routine now consists of: </p> <p>Face wash (2 kinds: everyday, and super mild)<br /> Essence<br /> Moisturizing toner<br /> Spot treatment (acne)<br /> Lotion (various)<br /> Neck lotion<br /> Exfoliate<br /> Mud mask<br /> Pore mask<br /> Sleep masks (various)<br /> Sheet masks (various)</p> <p>I'm not exactly sure how my list got so long ... it did take awhile to figure out which items worked for me. I'm not even counting the stuff I've been meaning to use but keep forgetting to! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/skincare-routine-cost/page/2#post-2390005 Wed, 16 Dec 2015 00:39:19 +0000 ScarletBegonia 2390005@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wash my face with Nivea cleanser in the shower. I have a pot of Clinique Youth Surge SPF20 that I have had for about 6 months, I ALWAYS forget to use it unless my skin is feeling really dry, which it hardly ever does. I need to be better about sunscreen, living in Australia.<br /> My biggest "beauty" expense is this stupid fancy hand soap - used it at a hotel once and could never go back to normal soap. I rationalise it by not spending anything on makeup and not much on my face. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/skincare-routine-cost/page/2#post-2389948 Tue, 15 Dec 2015 22:44:01 +0000 yoursilverlining 2389948@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs D: here's most of what I use. I'm not wedded to the pm eye cream - after this little tub is gone I'll likely go back to Shisedo. The masks are not pictured. :happy: </p> [attach=1754/15/nzfmde.600x600.image.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/skincare-routine-cost/page/2#post-2389912 Tue, 15 Dec 2015 21:39:50 +0000 gingerbebe 2389912@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Right now:</p> <p>- Missha Super Aqua cleanser $10<br /> - St. Ives green tea scrub $5 every few days<br /> - A Korean ginseng based skin softener and lotion set that I was gifted $90 (Donginbi brand)<br /> - A Korean ginseng oil serum $100 (same brand)</p> <p>The lotion set and the serum were gifts and they last a year at least - especially that serum is like a drop a day so who knows how long that goes.</p> <p>Otherwise I replace the ginseng stuff with Kiehl's ultra facial cream - the $46 tub lasts about 6 months for me. </p> <p>We also buy a gallon jug of BeeKind body lotion twice a year for about $75 but DH and I both use it to slather down our bodies. It's good quality body lotion with a light scent and doesn't irritate DH's sensitive skin. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/skincare-routine-cost/page/2#post-2389863 Tue, 15 Dec 2015 20:47:35 +0000 Meowkers 2389863@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs D: I haven't. I'll look into it. Thanks!</p> <p>Ha just remembered that I use Pixi Glow Tonic for my toner. I feel like my skin care list product list is endless. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/skincare-routine-cost#post-2389857 Tue, 15 Dec 2015 20:42:17 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 2389857@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Less than 25 quarterly. I use makeup removing wipes from Costco and Olay lotion. That's it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/skincare-routine-cost#post-2389855 Tue, 15 Dec 2015 20:40:39 +0000 Mrs. Bee 2389855@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>a lot. i buy toner, essence, day and night moisturizer, eye cream, face oil, mask, exfoliant, face wash... but it lasts a long time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/skincare-routine-cost#post-2389827 Tue, 15 Dec 2015 20:01:34 +0000 mrsjyw 2389827@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>150+ per quarter... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/skincare-routine-cost#post-2389823 Tue, 15 Dec 2015 19:57:46 +0000 Charm54 2389823@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I buy whatever moisturizer is on sale and I use aveeno face wipes . So maybe 25$ every 3 months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/skincare-routine-cost#post-2389818 Tue, 15 Dec 2015 19:45:15 +0000 babypugs 2389818@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I feel pretty lucky that my skin is relatively easy to handle! I use Cetaphil Cleanser (a huge $8 tub lasts at least six months), the men's Neutrogena moisturizer (it's cheaper AND had a higher SPF!), and Garnier night cream. Maybe $15 quarterly? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/skincare-routine-cost#post-2389812 Tue, 15 Dec 2015 19:38:04 +0000 Foodnerd81 2389812@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I hardly spend anything- but I think it shows! </p> <p>Cetaphil cleanser, which lasts forever<br /> Olay moisturizer- with SPF for day, and if I'm being good, the fancier one in the red tub at night (you know, the one the works better than the $400 cream, according to their commercial?)<br /> Occasionally Olay eye cream when I remember</p> <p>I do splurge on sunscreen in the summer or when I'll be in the sun a lot. I got skinsceuticals this year and it was expensive but I feel like sun protection is one are that will have long term effects. </p> <p>My skin could definitely look better but I just am too lazy. And I've had reactions to most lotion brands I've tried besides the Olay, and the Olay is cheap and easy to get at Costco, so I stick with it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/skincare-routine-cost#post-2389777 Tue, 15 Dec 2015 18:43:04 +0000 Mrs D 2389777@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Meowkers: have you ever tried kiehls rosa antica (sp?) eye cream? I like it - the texture is really nice! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/skincare-routine-cost#post-2389776 Tue, 15 Dec 2015 18:42:44 +0000 Mrs. Pen 2389776@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not very much! I buy the facial cleansing pads from trader joes, it's 50 wipes so it lasts me nearly two months. It's less than $5. I also buy St Ives apricot scrub, which is also less than $5 and it takes me 4-5 months to go through it (I exfoliate about 2, maybe 3x a week).<br /> The lotion. I've been using coola with spf. It was my most expensive item, at 30. But I've had it since May and it's not gone yet. I use it twice a day.<br /> So about/less than $50 a year. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/skincare-routine-cost#post-2389769 Tue, 15 Dec 2015 18:38:36 +0000 HabesBabe 2389769@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@runnerd: I just saw your comment and I am in the same exact boat!

So about $20 every 3 months?</p> <p>I also have started breaking out like a teenager these past few months, but I honestly couldn't care less than I'm a pizza face. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/skincare-routine-cost#post-2389760 Tue, 15 Dec 2015 18:34:16 +0000 pwnstar 2389760@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use Cetaphil or Tatcha cleanser (with a Clarisonic), Auspect Vitamin C serum, and La Mer moisturizer (a few other products here and there too, but that's my basic routine). But I also like inexpensive products too, like Sonia Kashuk eye makeup remover (at Target), and CeraVe moisturizer (during the summer). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/skincare-routine-cost#post-2389752 Tue, 15 Dec 2015 18:29:17 +0000 MoonMoon 2389752@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH and I share an Origins face wash (~$25) but it lasts a year (I don't wash my face with soap every day). My day cream costs $5 or $6 from Trader Joe's and lasts ages, lol. My night cream costs about $30 (Origins) but again lasts way longer than 3 months. So I'm estimating... $15-20 per quarter, tops? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/skincare-routine-cost#post-2389745 Tue, 15 Dec 2015 18:18:40 +0000 sorrycharlie 2389745@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I use Ava Anderson Nontoxic..I'm not sure how long the products last exactly, but depending on how much I use, closer to 4-5 months.</p> <p>Cleanser - 17.95<br /> Toner - 15.95<br /> Moisturizer - 19.95</p> <p>and I get 30% off that price, too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/skincare-routine-cost#post-2389739 Tue, 15 Dec 2015 18:12:19 +0000 Littlebit7 2389739@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm not including makeup<br /> Cetaphil<br /> L'oreal daytime lotion<br /> L'oreal nighttime lotion<br /> Prescription retin a micro cream from the derm<br /> Clairsonic<br /> Sometimes some boots eye cream</p> <p>I have an ole Hendrickson scrub and Peter Thomas Roth peel wipes that I don't use often </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/skincare-routine-cost#post-2389733 Tue, 15 Dec 2015 18:08:17 +0000 Mrs.KMM 2389733@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd say $25-30.

I'm still looking for that AMAZING eye cream so every time I run out I try something new. Right now i'm using Shiseido eye cream.</p> <p>Other brands I really like are Algenist (anti aging moisturizer); Origins (nightamins night cream); Ole Henriksen (various serums and treatments); Philosophy (microdelivery peel); Pevonia Botanica (exfoliating face wash). My big ticket skin care items are facials and botox (and occasional filler injections.) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/skincare-routine-cost#post-2389701 Tue, 15 Dec 2015 17:31:28 +0000 fussygal 2389701@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I spend maybe $40 every three months.

Pretty much same routines.</p> <p>I will say I have pretty bad skin though (thanks adult acne that's worse than when I was a teen) and could probably use a grown up skin regime. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/skincare-routine-cost#post-2389689 Tue, 15 Dec 2015 17:10:59 +0000 PawPrints 2389689@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I spend about $75 per year on skincare. That's a 16-oz moisturizer, 16-oz treatment, and big thing of tea tree oil castille cleanser. I use a tiny amount of everything daily, so it lasts all year. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/skincare-routine-cost#post-2389685 Tue, 15 Dec 2015 17:07:19 +0000 MrsBrewer 2389685@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hahaha 0! I don't have a skincare regime at all. Just my face wash in the shower. I never wear makeup though either </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/skincare-routine-cost#post-2389683 Tue, 15 Dec 2015 17:04:54 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 2389683@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm not very consistent (meaning using all products twice a day) with my skincare regimen, so all in all I spend maybe less than $25/ mo. I have a cleanser, toner, moisturizer, and exfoliating scrub. All can be purchased at a drug store or Ulta.</p> <p>I'm impressed by the people with all the different products that know how to use them and actually do! </p>
