Currently using Eminence Organics.
Spent alot of money on them.
But I'm still not seeing the results I want to.
When I go to bed at night I wake up with atleast 2-3 new pimples.
I am currently using their Eucalyptus Cleansing Concentrate, StoneCrop Toner and the StoneCrop Hydrating Gel.
I have tried other washes/serums/gels but they do not suit my skin.
I am looking for a good reliable company no matter how expensive as long as it works.
I have also tried the Juice Beauty Green Apple serum + peel but they were no good. |

I have to tell you, I have had the best results lately with making my own oil cleanser. I am doing 50 castor oil and 50 grapeseed, with ylang ylang and tea tree. It certainly isn't the most glamourous thing, but I am so happy with how my skin has responded. It has seriously never looked so good.
I also use the ACV toner - again, not glamourous, but I love that stuff too. Great for the slick spots and redness. |

Here is what I use and my skin has never looked better, for the first time my skin is clear, glowing and pretty.
DIY cleansing oil, My recipe is 60% castor oil, 20% jojoba oil, 20% grapeseed oil. I love it, very effective for removing SS and makeup with out irritation.
DR.HCC, that has been a lifesaver my pores are usually big and open, now they are almost gone.
ACV toner, this is what I think has really kept me breakout free for going on 5 months.
Fresh Umberian Clay treatment bar, great for clean gunk out of pores but very pricey, good thing it last forever.
I noticed the less I do the better, and no chemicals. |

I highly recommend the following:
Earth to Body (www.earthtobody.ca )
-Clay-Neem Treatment
-Emu-Neem Soap
It's all natural too.  |

My face is super oily and I break out easily.
My routine:
After the shower I spritz with PSF toner
Decleor ylang ylang oil
Solbar sunscreen
Decleor mattifying fluid
(Make is Everyday MInerals in Matte finish)
Night:
Yonka Gel Nettoyant cleanser
Mario Badescu Glycolic Gel
Decleor night balm (21 days on Ylang ylang, then a week on Essential)
Spot treat with Mario Badescu Drying cream if needed
I also keep Mario Badescu drying lotion on hand in case.
My skin is sooo much better. |

| Paris have you given up on using a morning cleanser? I can recall you asking questions about morning cleansers and whether they are necessary. I still debate whether I should just go back to using water only in the morning and would be interested to hear how this is working for you. |

TheresaL --yeah, I did. Sometimes if I had to spot treat the night before I wash my face with what's leftover from my Fresh cleanser balm with Lemon oil.
Other than that, just water for me...which does just fine!

Thanks Paris. I am seriously considering going back to plain water. But then what would I do with all of my morning cleansers? I may have to wait awhile longer. Either that or use them as very expensive shaving creams.  |
