So, I am 23 and still breaking out. I figured it was time to change up my routine so I went to Sephora! My new regimen includes cleansing daily, exfoliating 1X a week, spot treatments as needed for acne and this awesome black mask peel 1X a week. What works for you ladies?

I still have acne too, mildly. I wash my face at night and wash it in the morning. On cold days I'll use a little lotion. That's about it. I suspect my acne and my height may contribute to why some people (such as my OB, grrr) treat me like a teenager, but there's so many funky chemicals in a lot of facial treatments that I wonder if I'm better off with acne and wrinkles for the time being.

I still break out occasionally (usually as part of the joy that is PMS) but I'm TERRIBLE about this kind of stuff. I use soap and water and...well, that's it. I should use lotion and an array of other things, but I'm just plain lazy!

I'm pretty lazy. I use an acne soap with benzoil peroxide and take an antibiotic prescribed by my dermatologist and that's it.

I used to be really lazy, too, but I am tired of the acne. It's so bad! I breakout a week before AF comes, and finally get it under control a week after she leaves... then I break out again. It's awful. I have about 2-3 days a month where my acne isn't awful. So, I got some new stuff. The mask I used was incredible. Hoping to take better care of myself. I just want some recommendations for some good stuff. I am hoping not to spend so much on skin products!

I don't. I just wash my face when I shower. In the in-between times it's unscented, Parent's Choice baby wipes and I have a decent complexion. But I don't wear makeup except for my eyes though.

I don't have one either. I am terrible! I don't even wash my face before bed! I don't wear make up though so washing it in the shower seems to work for me. I guess I haven't really battled with acne other than the occasional zit here and there. DH comes from a family with really really bad acne so I worry for my girls. I hope that they get my complexion because I know how much DH and his siblings have suffered because of the acne. I really would like to know what to put on my face to keep it looking young and wrinkle free. There are so many products out there and they are expensive and I just wish I knew which one worked. I wouldn't mind spending the money if I knew it would help.

Agreed. Exactly my feelings! Hence going to Sephora. I have a month to try it out, and I can bring it back for a full refund.

I use a warm washcloth in the morning, at night and when I come home from work/eating out/being away for a while. I only use soap in the shower. After I wash with soap or just a warm washcloth I always put face lotion on. Right now I'm using up Aveeno but when I'm done I'll start looking for something more natural.

I use a cleanser twice a day, exfoliate two or three times a week, use a night cream at night and a moisturising BB cream for the day. I'm lazy with masks and toning and the like though.
