Your Method of Skin Care

[MoroDashi]

I wash my face every morning sometimes...
I sometimes use this little oval thingy that has cleansing soap. It's Loreal Cleansing Strips I think. They.. Help.
I haz a clear face suckaas ;D
Nah, i'll have some when i'm older.
Hopefully I didn't just jinx myself.. ;___;

[THE ICE ANGEL]

I wash my eyes with water only as soon as i wake up..just my eyes to avoid xtra dryness.
my skin is dry already and i have no acne.
I love my skin and i put nothing on it.
bottom line is, i dont take care of my skin.

[Sasori|Eternal Sacrifice|]

Acutane(sp?) completely fixed whatever problem I had with my skin. Took it for a few months, never had a major break out ever since. I took the pill 4 years ago.

For the small breakouts, there's a loreal soap stuff, I think that's the brand anyway.. And this liquid stuff that burns like hell. Both of which get rid of it overnight. At least for me.

Other than that, my skins fine.

My skin used to never be too bad. Occasional breakout. But for the past year no matter what I do, I get these awful breakouts and they take so long to clear up.

That's why I've gone gluten-free. My mom has celiac disease, and apparently acne is one of the symptoms, among other things I show. I just started a few days ago, and already I've noticed blemishes aren't popping up left and right. For my method of skin care I use Proactiv. Occassionally I use St. Ives Apricot Scrub (SO good). And now I'm starting to eat more foods that are supposed to be good for your skin.

I have mildly oily skin, and sometimes dry.
I normally do a full-out face wash every other day.
I found that washing my face too much every day only made it dry and sore.
For my face washing products, I vary from Proactive to Clearasil Ultra. The Clearasil is amazing. It makes your skin feel refreshed and smooth. It also gives your skin a slight "tight" feeling, but I like it.

Every day though, I use face wipes called Stridex pads. They work perfectly for my skin, also giving it that tight feeling. It's sure to get a lot of dirt off your face with one small pad.
I don't use lotions on my face, I find it too "pore clogging", but I use lotions on my body. Preferably, my favorite lotion brand is this Suave Skin Therapy called Exhale, Calming. It's soft on the skin, and has soothing aromas such as lavender and vanilla.
For my face, I use a Cover Girl moisturizer that's oil free and keeps my skin breathing.

I do drink lots of water and watch out for super oily foods. I've also found it a habit to wash my hands a lot. Hands attract dirt, oils, etc. and touching your face or any other part of your body with oily, dirty hands can be awful for your skin.

I moisterise daily because I sensitive skin and suffer from eczema. I don't use anti-acne products because I don't need to. I like to anything with Aloe Vera or Goat's Milk or Fish Oil.

If I get really bad outbreak of eczema, I have to use quatrezone creams.

[LiLi.]

I have kinda oily skin type.

My way of reducing spots: (Important: This works for me, that doesn't mean i'm definitely sure it'll work for you) When i'm in the shower, i rub toothpaste on my spots in a circular motion. (It works pretty well, a bit of chemistry here, guys, spots are acidic, where as toothpaste is mildy alkaline) It does sting, but leave it on around 10 seconds. Then rinse it off.

I just wash my face with water, after that i tone it with Clearasil Stayclear Deep Cleansing Toner then Simple Hydrating Light Moisturizer

(:

Mi skin's not too dry, and definitely not oily, its pretty smooth.
I don't use any products. I used to have acne, for bout a year only though, 4th-5th. And that was probably because my country is so dusty and all, and I played a lot then.
But even then, I used no products. I only used any body wash that smelled alright with me, sometimes soap, but stopped cuz' it makes my skin dry; my skin's not that oily, so it'd just take the oil away, so I leave it alone.
Overall, all I really do it just wash my face morning and night;no soap/products. First warm water[open the pores], then cold[close them].

[OminousCloud]

It rubs the lotion on its skin...

I just make sure to wash my face in the morning and at night before bed. Occassionally, I'll use a mild moisturiser and I make sure to use sunscreen, the sun can be brutal.

I have really sensitive skin and I have problems with it a lot. Too oily, then its too dry, and my face breaks out sometimes. Gee, thanks dad. I love your genes.

I wash my face with just water at least once a day, and I'm on medicine for it. One pill a day and two medicines that I have to apply once a day each. It keeps my skin fairly clear but I still have to go to a dermatologist's once every couple months. Fun, fun Dx

Then I guess you're having combination. To me, combination is hard to care good care of cos you don't know whether dry or oily kind of skin care you should use. Well I don't know if you wear makeups, but in that case, I would stop makeup until I see new results. Do wash your face in the morning and before you go to sleep. Don't over wash your face because it could also be the reason why you have sensitive skins. Use gentle or mild cleanser, and don't use scrub if it is not too bad. So you take medicine for what? For acne?

Rinse with hot water, dab dry with a towel twice a day. Easy and cheap.

Haha, I already wash my face in the morning and before bed ^^; Sometimes when I get home from school too. The sensitivity isn't a result of my actions, its hereditary. They say it also has to do with my native american blood, in combination with plain old bad luck in genes.
Yeah the medicine is for acne but more as a preventative measure than treatment ^^; Plus one of the applied meds is to fix old scars.

[Baka]

I use a bar of soap when in the shower. Nothing special.

Wow, sad thing is some people get scars that last for months. My face was full of acne scars and took more than a year to fade away. I tried many products including scars facials and scar scrubs, even proactive, but nothing worked. But I went back to Asia last summer, and sure sweat a lot, I think that was when the scars started to fade and it did quickly. Now my face is all clear.

Maybe sweats can help a lot, maybe try some exercises do you don't need to spend money on products. I hope that help.

I never was going to reveal my adoring secret, but I will be cooperative as I have had a good day today.

I remove all of my clothes (get naked), get into my shower, turn on the shower so that the water is coming out, rub various places on my body with various different substances, and then dry myself. The end result is that; my lovely white skin is left lovely and clean.

This is performed on various days.

[rikumi]

I drink healthy juice. Usually mixed yogurt/drinkable enzymes with cucumber, apple and lemon.(Cucumber always helps.) I don't go for skin care products. They're not affordable...at my current state.

I eat a lot of apples and drink a lot of juice too. I have a balanced diet, apples being a priority. Kajiwara loves his apples! Do not mistake me for a shinigami though.

Rikumi, did you know that Shinigami's love apples?

[-akichan-]

Wow juices!

The brothers and sisters from my church are so rigid about health, and how to be healthy to treat God while we are on earth. Things always expected to be organic, less meat but more vegetables and fruits, sometimes even no meat. They often buy few boxes of mix organic fruits and mix all of them with a mixer, and serve the mix fruit juice to all of us. It's tasty, and it was said that it would help the skin so much xD

However...didn't really help for me...Not just me, most girls has worst quality of skins than mine.

[Ramona Flowers]

I wash my face at least once a day with my lava soap bar, and C&C shower mask. Also, if my skin is getting out of hand eating alot of oranges usually clears up my skin.

[Dr. Evil]

anti-acne pads....they do work folks, I know, Ive used 'em.

[Zenga]

I don't do anything really, I just wash.
