So.. Hundreds of brands, all promising the same sort of thing - so which brand can you trust? Well essentially, all brands will get the job done to some degree, but in terms of how clean your skin is and it's current and future health, I trust 1. Clinique.
Clinique's 3 Step system offers a different collection of 3 products (cleanser, toner and moisturiser) for 4 different skin types:
1 - very dry/dry skin
2 - dry/combination skin
3 - combination/oily skin
4 - oily/very oily skin
I personally am a #2! And Clinique's system has always been the skincare I have run back to! And not just for their skincare..
Personally, I consider Clinique's 3-Step to be a product for all ages and skin types and is definitely the perfect base skin care for everyone! On top of these products, you are then able to add products to cater to your skins specific problems/needs. For example apart from acne scarring I find that my skin becomes dehydrated and due to my European background I have darkness (and often puffiness) under my eyes. To combat these specific issues I use Clinique's Moisture Surge (amazing hydration) and Clinique's Repairwear Laser Focus (for the under eye). Both of these products are extremely light but have maximum impact (which I find is a general trait amongst Clinique's products).
Whilst I have used a few of Clinique's makeup products and not been so impressed (oxidising foundations and lip-drying lipsticks) their skincare range definitely has a product for everyone and whilst you may find their products more pricey than those at the drug store, they are a lot less harsh and a lot more beneficial for your skin - worth every cent!
Nights
Clinique's Rinse Off Foaming Cleanser (to remove makeup - even waterproof)
St. Ives Apricot Scrub - Invigorating formula (exfoliate)
Clinique's Liquid Facial Soap -mild, oily/combination skin (cleanser)
- I never wear a moisturiser to bed unless I really need it (I like to let me skin breathe)
Mornings
Clinique's Liquid Facial Soap - mild, oily/combination skin(cleanser)
Clinique's Clarifying Lotion (toner) - #2
Clinique's Dramatically Different Moisturising Lotion
Clinique's Moisture Surge (use like a serum - minimal amount necessary)
Clinique's Repairwear Laser Focus (eye cream)
- Then primer and makeup application.
