The Mario Badescu Foaming Glycolic cleanser works wonders for me ... my skin must have a really high turnover rate because I used to have to use an 8% AHA gel every few days to feel like my skin wasn't covered in dead cells. This stuff has completely eliminated my use of the AHA gel.
I also love their Drying Lotion ... it looks and smells like calamine lotion, but it is amazing. I only ever get cystic blemishes, but if one pops up I can put this on before bed one night, two tops, and the blemish is gone. LOVE IT!
Now if only I could find something for the blackheads ... I am convinced those will never go away.

This is probably bad but - Hydrocortisone Cream! Now, I don't use this on a regular basis just whenever my skin is really acting up since it's very sensitive and I just haven't been able to find any products that won't irritate it. I also find it good to use as a spot treatment for those cystic zits. I'll just dab it on the spot at night and when I wake up in the morning it's most likely smaller, and less red and less painful than it was the night before.

I agree with everyone that likes Hope in a Jar. That stuff has done wonders for my skin.

It only made my face greasy and shiny and left it feeling dirty. Like there was no Hope for me. I wound up using on my legs to get rid of it. Back to Paula's Choice with glycolic acid or her skin lightener gel with beta hydroxy. I don't like greasy feeling skin, I like even skin tone and excellent exfolliation.

Clinique Clarifying Lotion #2...not many people like this stuff becuase its alcohol based but I use it on my super sensitive-acne-prone skin and it works wonders! It cleans all the makeup out that my cleanser missed and it stops congested pores from forming (my biggest problem)....I love it

Lush Cosmetics Fresh Farmacy. In just two weeks my skin has turned around. Im super oily, and prone to black heads and blemishes. This stuff has really calmed my skin down. So much that I've already gone back and purchased the toner and moisturizer. Even my fiance' commented on how good my skin has been looking lately.

YES, I hated the smell! It took me a while to get used to it. But by the time I got used to the smell, I realized that it was giving me cystic acne
It went away as soon as I stopped using it, and my skin has been nice and clear ever since. It was quite a shame though, 'cause I really liked how soft and smooth it made my skin feel.

Again and again I tried to love this stuff....but i just can't. I think once upon a time (the very 1st time i used it) it worked and then forever after it just made me dry and sensitive.

For the past year it was MAC's Fix+ spray as part of my skincare regime (used prior to moisturizing as a light toner).
HOWEVER, after months of researching the faves and NOT SO FAVES of beauty bloggers -- my new HG skin saver product has to be Shiseido Hadasui Lotion Mist -- a TOTAL dupe for MAC's Fix+ spray @ almost HALF the price. =)

recently i have LOVEd Pure skin formulations retinol lotion under mario badusco seaweed night creme. its the ONLY thing that has faded my hyper pigmentation. (i have also sparingly used Mama lotion so that could be part of it) i am going on vacation next week, and i am SO excited to not have to worry about covering up my pigmentation spots and my makeup looking natural in sunlight. all i am bringing is my bare escentuals!
I've gotta add a recent favourite:
GRAPESEED OIL!
OH MY GOODNESS, I've been using this every night for the past week after washing my face. I mix it with a drop or two of my NUXE multi purpose dry oil and press it into my skin. My acne scars have faded a bit and my face no longer looks dehyrated, blemished less red.
Did a bit of research and found out that Grapeseed oil is supposedly a great natural moisturizer for oily-combination-normal skin (probably too light for dry skin) and is NON-COMEDOGENIC! In fact, I have not had ONE extra spot since using it!!!
Take a look into it you guys, its such an amazing natural product.
