I am just wondering....Do you buy jojoba oil at a health food store? Or is there a product name?

You can buy jojoba oil in health stores and pharmacies I believe. I bought mine from a pharmacy Very Happy

Hi Vonstella!

Where do you get your glycolic/salicylic toner?

Hello!

Right now Im using Clean&Clear Daily Pore Toner, here are the ingred.:

Water, Alcohol, Glycolic Acid, Salicylic Acid, Sodium PCA, Sodium Lactate, PPG-5 Ceteth-20, Fragrance, T Butyl Alcohol, Menthyl Lactate, Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate

Its OK for now, meaning it gets the job done and dosent dry me out, although I wish it didnt contain alcohol.

Here is where I ordered the SA, GA and MA from:

http://www.skincarecentral.biz/skincare-exfoliators.html

Thank you! That Clean and Clear is something I can afford right now. I think my CVS has it. And I REALLY want some mandelic acid, but that will have to wait. Rolling Eyes

Love the skincarecentral site. Smile

Mine has changed ALOT.
a.m
cleanse with cetaphil gentle cleanser, (I had the regular before and picked this up when I ran out. It stinks and I can't wait to pitch it
exfol serum, wait as long as possible
mandelic acid, wait as long as possible,
isc super serum, wait 15 minutes
8%glyco eye cream from platimum skin care
psf phyto lift
emu oil
janson and beckett alpha lipioc night cream only on decollette.
p.m.
cleanse
copper serum on face and chest
copper cream around eyes
i-bright cream
pearl paste (thanks carekate)
emu oil

about once a week a do a 10 percent lactic acid peel, and I am currently spot treating some big pores with tca cross method to see if it helps any. I am not sure if I like everything or not. I think the mandelic made my tone peachy, but the exfol may be too much because when I use them both I get pinkish, but I still use them together. Maybe I should separate?

I have just started a new complete Dr Hauschka routine over about the last 2 weeks.

AM

Cleansing cream

PM

(remove makeup with standard cheap facial wipes)

Cleansing Milk
CLeansing Cream
Clarifying toner

1-2 X a week Rejuvenating Mask

free skin care · Tue Nov 28, 2006 12:00 pm

Cetaphil cleanser
Teamine eye cream (not working for me, but continue using until I find something else)
Klaron on any pimple prone region, mainly just chin (dermatologist prescribed)

I just went through 2 weeks of getting my skin back to its normal condition. I was just so stupid overcleansing and it left my skin sooooooo irritated that it started to break out with rash and whiteheads and my skin was dry and flaky. So, now that it's back to its usual condition, I'm starting a new skincare routine.

am

Yon-Ka Cleansing Milk
Yon-Ka Lotion PG
La Prarie Age Management Eye Complex
Yon-Ka Pamplemousse
Anessa Perfect UV Sunscreen SPF 50
lip balm

[b]pm

Yon-Ka Cleansing Milk
Dermalogica Daily Microfoliant
Yon-Ka Lotion PG
La Mer Eye Balm/La Prairie Lipo Sculpting Eye Gel
Yon-Ka Serum
Yon-Ka Phyto 58
lip balm

I'll be adding PSF Vit C 12% to my am routine and PSF 0.5% Retinol to my pm routine when I get them.

Not every day:

I took a break on the Vitamin C serum...I think 25% might be too much for me!
But it soaked in beautifully, not sticky in the least.

Hi

I am using the Anti Age Balm but not religiously, I am in the situation where I have lots of products to use up, but only discovered Yon ka a few weeks ago...and want to change to try this line. For the short time I have used the Balm, here's my opinion so far...

*Good value for money, you only need a little.
*Smells gorgeous.
*Is quite a heavy product, well it's a balm, but it is not as heavy (thick) as the Decleor balms, it is finer more sort of a refined delicate balm.
*You have to apply it quickly because the minute you have it out of the tube it melts and starts to slide off your fingers, you have to be quick
*I have no allergic reaction to this product and I have sensitive skin
*Moisturising properties are good
*Nourishing and repar properties are good
*It does not firm at all and doesn't claim to so if you are in my age group and are looking for a complete anitage product and you choose this you would need to combine it with a firming serum or something and something for skin renewal, aha or something

Hope this helps a bit..overall I am pleased with it but haven't used it that long only a week.
