Originally Posted by maryfitz24 /img/forum/go_quote.gif My current skin care regimen is as follows: (normal skin, t-zone in summer, some breakout)
cleanser- Cetaphil Gentle Cleanser in AM, Prescriptives cleanser for normal skin in PM

toner- I do use one.

moisturizer- Prescriptives all you need (normal skin) in AM/PM, sometimes in PM, I use Serious Skin Care's 2 Vitamin A cream

exfoliator- Clinique's exfoliating scrub

eye cream- I do not buy a separate cream. I use samples from GWP (usually Clinique)

I am sure at some point I will be switching my skin care regimen. It seems like my skin gets used to something and then the products become ineffective. I have been using the Prescriptives for 3 weeks now. So far, so good. My skin has cleared up a great deal.

I now have a new regimen. I've been using it for 4 months now and my skin looks better than it has in years.
Skin type: normal (dry in winter, t-zone in summer)

cleanser: clinical basics facial wash

toner: none

exfoliator: clinical basics scrubbing beads

moisturizer: clinical basics cream emulsion (in winter), gel emulsion (in summer)

That's it. If needed, I use the clinical basics blemish buster. I also use the spf 27 from clinical basics. These products are the best I've found for my skin. I use minimal products (as you can see) and my skin has responded well.

I hope it continues.

 
I really like Isomers on shopnc. I think anyone could use them as they are mostly serums. They have a new GABA product right now. I am 51 with combo skin and am new to caring about skincare.
