Even if you just use a basic cleanser & moisturizer, I think having a good skincare regimen can make a huge difference.
Morning:
Philosophy Purity Made Simple Cleanser
Biotherm Pure Bright Toner
Biotherm Hydra-Detox eye gel
Biopur Moisturizing Matifying Fluid
Night:
Philosophy Purity
Biotherm Pure Bright toner
Neutrogena Oil-Free Moisture for combination skin
Neutrogena spot treatment as needed
Twice weekly:
MAC Microfine Refinisher
Weekly:
Estee Lauder So Clean mask
I recently switched to a couple new items, but so far I'm happy.

I probably have the easiest/most pathetic skincare routine! But my skin reacts well to almost anything.
Morning:
Dove bar soap to cleanse
Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturizing Gel
Night:
Dove bar soap or Eucerine(sp?) clear pore to cleanse
Sea Breeze Astringent with Salicylic Acid
The end!

My night definately is more complicated than the morning, hehe, guess i"m more tired then
MORNING:
Splash face with water, massage some cetaphil in, rinse and then Garnier Fresh moisturizer on any dry parts.
NIGHT:
Garnier Fresh eye makeup remover to get all the gunk off my eyes
Then Neutrogena Bar cleanser most of the time to wash off my face
Then depending on what I bought that round, some sort of astringent or cleansing pad
Then a light self tanner for the face, which also moisturises
Then ever other day I use an exfoliating scrub and once a week a mask

It seems to irritate it even more. I use Olay cleansing cloths. |

clinigue gentle face soap, clarifying lotion, and dramatically different moisturizing lotion. it comes in a little kit, and you use it twice a day. i dont always use it twice a day (shame on me) but its great for clearing up your skin.

This post is also a rave for Serious Skin Care, Aloette DHC products and 1 Murad product!!!
So it's been almost a month of me using their products. For a month is plenty of time for me to know if a product will work for my skin. It allows me to see if it will cause breakouts and what the products will do for me.
I've been using their Skin Renew Kit
I just placed a 2nd order for the kit because it's cheaper to get the products that way and it has everything I love.
The only two products I don't really use is the A-Cream SPF 30 with Peptides and the A-Force with Peptides. Still it's cheaper to get the kit and I figure this summer while by the pool I will use them more.
Anyways, you all know I don't dance around and make things seem like cotton candy and bubblegum. I tend to really hold back on face products. I like to give them enough time to work or not work. At first my face went through some purging. Nothing really bad but when is purging a beautiful thing? I stuck to the routine and now I just love how my face looks. BTW the purging was for 2 weeks.
Of course many of know that I am using cold water to wash my face which is really helping with oilies and my pores.
This skin care routine has brought back the life and glow to my face. It's not a "you've been using chemicals on your face red glow" that I usually get from products. It's a rosy cheek fresh faced glow. I finally have color back in face. When I turned 28 my face just lost all it's color. Hitting 30 made me realize I needed and wanted that glow back.
I have been testing out different products only to become very unhappy with the results.
While my skin is not in perfect condition it's not the mess it was back in Jan.
I also use 2 products from DHC which have really helped too! My face tends to hate toners. Any toner I've ever used just tears at my skin and makes the acne worse. I had switched to using the Evian water spray but it just didn't seem to do enough. I had used the DHC micro spray once before and thought I would give it another try. The first time I had it I only got to use it about 3 times because I lost it on a trip. It's not just water. It also has green tea, thyme, and houttuynia extracts. I use it day and night after cleansing or anytime my face feels it needs a refresh.
The other product isAcerola Gel.
This baby is packed with Vitamin C and since it's a gel it doesn't make my face oily. I've been very pleased with using this as my daily moisturizer.
The products that I use by Aloette have helped ease fine lines and keep my skin balanced after using Retin A gel given to me by my derm. The aloette has NOTHING to do with the results of less acne and a brighter complexion but it has helped with moisture balance and fine lines.
My routine:
Morning:
Everyother night I use Retin a gel given to me by my derm. When I use this I only cleanse and tone.
Any night I am not using the Retin A I switch between SSC and Aloette

Morning and Night (all Origins):
Well Off eye make-up remover
Never A Dull Moment skin-brightening wash
United State balancing tonic
A Perfect World white tea skin guardian
Balanced Diet moisturizer
Eye Doctor eye cream
Spot Remover when needed for some surpise break-outs (this is seriously the BEST STUFF EVER when it comes to making break-outs disappear quickly)
Once a week, I do some sort of mask, either an Origins I've been using for years or the St. Ives clay firming mask. I also use the Daily Facials Express wipes when I'm too lazy to wash my face, before putting on a mask, or before using a natural microdermabrasion scrub that I just discovered at Origins.
I've been using Origins products since 7th grade. I'm not about to try anything else!

Morning: Olay Regenerist Daily Regenerating Cleanser, Olay Regenerist Thermal Skin Polisher or Bliss Steep Clean Cleansing Milk. It basically depends on what I grab. Then I use Kiehls UFM.
Body wise - Either Olay Ribbons plus Creme Ribbons, Bliss Vanilla and Bergamot Scrub or Bliss Herban Jungle Soap. Again, it depends on what I grab.
As far as lotion goes or after-shower moisturizing, I love Bliss Plum Plum Body Spray or Palmers Cocoa Butter Oil. Smells soooooooo good.
PM: Kiehls eye makeup remover and one of the above-referenced face washes - again, depends on my mood although I do favor the Olay Thermal one at night. Then Kiehls #1 Lip Balm
