Looking for a *New* Skin Regimen

[laguayaca]

Hey Chicas,
As of right now I am using:
Smashbox Primer
Clinique Dramatically Different MOisturizing Gel

Cleanser:
Im BAD all I use is MAC face wipes

I have oily skin that is acne prone! After reading some other reviews on Makeupalley I came to the realization that im not going crazy--little bumps have appeared on my cheeks since starting to use Dramatically Different! However I also think that the Smashbox is making my skin oily not too oily but enough that in a few hours I can tell. I have been using neutrogena acne wash.

Heres what im thinking of using:
Clean and Clear Facewash
Monistat Chafing cream - replacing Smashbox

I need yalls suggestions! Looking for something that is not tooo costly but is effective!

Thanks!

If you have acne prone skin, your def gonna have to up your skin care regimen. Trust me, I know.
I used Proactive after following that stupid Proactive craze and realized that Neutrogena works best for me. I happen to love theyre facial cleaner to take my make up off.
Below is exactly what I uses for my oily and acne prone skin. Im telling you, I barely break out and if I do its just one piple that goes away in a few days not a whole lot of bumbs.

1. Exfoliate. (you wanna exfoliate at leat twice a week ( I do it more) to get all those dead skin cells off you face. This also allows better appliaction for any cleanser you use.) I use St. Ives Apricot Scrub.

2.You wanna invest in a good cleaner especially if you wear make up. I use Neutrogena's facial cleanser (Frangrance free) at night to remove my make up.

3. I always follow with a Toner. I use Oil of Olay Toner. Stay away from aclohol it will dry your skin.

I recommend using Benzoyhl Peroxide for acne prone skin. Saliysic Acid is also a good alternative because sometimes Benzoyl peroxide can be a bit harsh on your skin.
I prefer Neutrogena to any other products just because it has proven positive results.
