Once a week I use egg whites as a facial. It tightens the skin and controls oil

i use only soap and water truly - a few times a week I use a scrub. I use Tone soap - super cheap. My scrubs are fancy pants though! I especially prefer my hubbies Zirh scrub. I also have a nice Kiehls scrub. I have a cucumber toner I am into. I use Juvena face cream like 4 times a day. Under my eyes just slices of cucumbers maybe one night a week.

What else...OH EGYPTIAN MAGIC CREAM on any blemishes, chapped areas, cold sores, etc. That stuff is truly the BEST. i am also using that on my stretch marks and other dry preggie areas!

Cetaphil has been recommended by both my dermatologists. Retin A a couple times a week (prescrip.) to make sure I don't get too many wrinkles.

SPF every day. Dermatologist visit 2x a year for check ups. They give the best advice!

My grandma never started getting wrinkles till her 70's, she's 92 now and still looks young-and she swears by Oil of Olay and staying out of the sun.

Does that eqyptian magic cream really work Jenny11.9??????

Water in the shower. I don't clean my face with anything - everything I've tried has dried it out...except for Cetaphil - but I only use that once in a blue moon.

Most people think I'm gross for not washing my face...but I have fairly clear skin and only just a few fine lines by my eyes (but I've been wearing contacts for almost 20 years).

If I get a breakout, I'll use Clindamyacin(sp?) pledgelets once a day until it's gone...a really major one, I'll zap it with Brevoxyl 15%.

I'll use a vitamin C moisturizer with SPF 15 in the morning in the summer/spring - when I feel like it, I'll use it fall/winter as well.

I cant get into my neurotic beauty routines again about my face washing,rinsing,scrubbing ect.

I second the preperation H even if FH asks why I have A$$ cream in my makeup bag - I use it anyway.

I also use Palmers cocca butter relgiously soo cheap and smells sooo good.
about once a week I use a scrub of about a cup of sugar and 1/2 cup of lotion (Palmers) and use it on my hands, elbows and feet then I jump in a warm shower to rinse it off. It works !!!

Olive oil - I think kiss my face has an olive oil face wash no ? I will have to try it!

my favorite body scrub is just sugar mixed with a few drops of lemon or lime juice. works like magic!!!!

I do that too.. my mom turned me into that.. she's been doing that forever!!

also good for tightening is plain yogurt masks..

preparation H is also good to prevent stretch marks as well as treating new ones...I had overlifted once and saw these two red lines under my armpit, I applied preparation H to them and poof, they were gone like 2 days later..

also, I truly believe in moisturizing immediately after taking a shower.. your pores are open and will soak up all the lotion..

are your roots too light? but your head is raw from the bleach/dye? use some coffee (already brewed) and let it sit for a while then wash it out.. it will tone it down..

I also used to do alot of mayonaise treatments to my haird.. by far the grossest smelling, but SOO worth it.

great tips marcella.

I use cetaphil to wash my face and then go over skin with seabreeze.

then at night I put on clear pore night treatment.

thanks momma!! Isn't amazing how cetaphil has been around FOREVER and yet people spend soo much $$$ of all this name brand stuff?

I find cetaphil cleanser too greasy after I wash my face.

Right now, I use Proactiv cleanser in the a.m. followed by the proactiv toner. On my cheeks I use a Rx for rosacea and on the other parts of my face I use Retin-A. Then I put on Cetaphil moisturizer with SPF 15.

For nighttime: I use St. Ives exfoliating cleanser (it's creamy) and toner and another Rx cream with 7% benzoil peroxide and then over that a nighttime moisturizer.

I wish I could just use water on my face

I use only Dove for sensitive skin with lotion and water. I also only wash my face once a day. I do not dry it and immediately put on Neutrogena Moisture for sensitive skin. I also keep my face out of the sun as much as possible.

I'm 47 and do not have a single line or wrinkle!!!! People think that my granddaughter is my daughter so I guess it works!
