I use natural and organic products for my skin and am currently loving:

Skyn Icelandic Glacial Face Wash with Biospheric Complex

You can get it at Sephora.

If you're on a budget, Biore Triple Action.

I've been using Artistry products ever since high school and i've recomended to many people who are all very satisfied...They have cleansers for all skin types. I use their cleanser, toner, and moisturiser. I also use their scrub once a week, and the anti blemish for the occasional zit.

I use Neutrogena. It works very well and is not as expensive as a lot of other cleansers. This cleanser in particular can be used as a daily cleanser and as a mask.



These pads are also really good, especially when removing makeup.

You can't use anything past 6 months because it no longer works or you like to change up?

I've had the same problem...whenever I find a product that works, after 6 months or so it no longer does anything for my skin. I have Oily Skin and that creates an ongoing mild acne problem and I've tried so many products that work only for a short time, I constantly had to change up.

Oil of Olay Total Effects worked for me well past 6 months (I had been using it for a year) and it kept the acne at bay but I still got the occassional breakout.

But my neighbor introduced me to the Mary Kay's TimeWise Products - because she was a salesperson of course - after she tried to sell me MK products so many times and I kept dodging her and saying I'm not interested, I finally decided to try them so she could stop bothering me and suprisingly, it did wonders for my skin.

My skin is at its best even after using it for a little over a year now. I have since changed all my skin care products and even makeup to MK. I hated to be bothered by these MK sales ppl, now I take the cards just in case my supplier decides to discontinue selling. They really do have a good line for Oily Skin.
