First and foremost, let's start out with my skin. I have very fair, pale, sensitive skin. I have freckles and redness. I wouldn't say I have severely problematic skin, but it's far from perfect. I have pores, some scaring, and I break out easily. I feel like my skin type is ALL over the place. I would say I have dry, sensitive, acne-prone skin. My skin will break out fairly easy from products and let me tell you, it has taken a very long time (and a lot of money) to find products that actually work well with my skin. So here we go!

Firs thing is first, I usually use a facial wipe or oil to take off my makeup. For facial wipes I like the Target Up&Up Brand you can find here. I love these wipes. They get the job done and they have never broken me out! Lately I have been into using makeup remover oils to remove my makeup.One I have been using for awhile now is the Garnier Clean & Nourishing Cleansing Oil. A higher end one that I recently purchased but have had great luck and results with is Boscia Tsubaki Cleansing Oil-Gel. I have heard reviews that it doesn't take off waterproof makeup well but I don't wear waterproof makeup so it has been great for me!

Next I cleanse my face. Sometimes I use my Clarisonic Mia, but sometimes it can be too harsh on my very sensitive skin. I have to take breaks with it! So for a really good drugstore cleanser, I use Simple Foaming Cleanser. I used to use just the regular cleanser by the Simple brand, but I like this foaming one much more. I have to use really gentle cleansers for skin and this one works really well! It does make my skin feel a little dry after but nothing a little extra moisturizer can't handle. A higher end facial cleaner I love is First Aid Beauty Face Cleanser. Again, a gentle cleanser that is targeted for sensitive skin. I recommend both of these products if you have really sensitve skin. Not to mention, both of these products do not contain parabens and sulfates or other harsh chemicals put into a majority of skin care products. Another gentle face cleanser I love (but haven't used in awhile) is Philosophy's Purity Made Simple Cleanser.

At night, I moisturize my face with a beauty oil. I either use Tarte's Maracuja Oil or Josie Maran's 100% Pure Argan Oil. I started using oils as a night moisturizer a couple months ago, and haven't stopped once. Most people seem hesitant to put oil on their face in fear of getting more oily or causing breakouts, but it does the complete opposite. Using oils actually slows the production of oils produced by your body so most of the time it helps with break outs. For me, it has cleared up my skin and I have seen such a difference from using both of these oils.

In the morning I use a regular daily moisturizer. I have been using Simple Ultra-light Gel Facial Moisturizer. I love natural products and I love this brand, and I do like the moisturizer but now that my skin has become SO dry from the colder months, this isn't working as well as it used to. My skin has been sucking it right up and I've even been applying some of Clinique's Moisture Surge over the top of it so my skin isn't so dry. I do like this moisturizer in the warmer months though! I bought the $20 .5oz of Kate Somerville's Nourish Daily Moisturizer at Sephora one evening after hearing lots of good reviews on her moisturizers and so far it is working for me. It is lightweight but makes my skin soft and smooth. I haven't been using it long so I will have to get back on that, but so far so good!
I use Tarte Maracuja C-Brighter Eye Treatment. I got this eye cream in a holiday gift set a few months ago and since I ran out of my old eye cream, I started using this. I haven't seen some huge change in my area but it does moisturize and I do see my eye area brightened up some.

As far as acne treatments go, I am a die hard Clean and Clear Persa-Gel. I have used this product since high school and I still do. It is extremely drying so I have to make sure to use a good moisturizer when using it but other than that, it does help a great amount at clearing up break outs.
