skincare routine for age 45/sensitive skin

Post by khasart1 » Thu Nov 04, 2010 1:15 pm

Hello Ladies,

I am looking for a "greener" skincare routine that doesn't cost an arm and a leg. I have an oily t-zone with drier cheeks. I am starting to get lines around my eyes and jawline. I have fair skin and have trouble using anything with alot of fragrance in it. Currently I am using a Avalon Vitamin C cleanser, hydrosol for toning and a homemade moisturizing serum made of aloe vera and vegetable glycerin. I am thinking about getting either the super and/or facelift vitamin C serum and the intensive moisturizer. Does this sound reasonable. Is there some other regimen that might be better?

What you have listed sounds pretty good. Would you consider adding in AHA Toner? It is a great exfoliator for fine lines, but you cannot use it on the same application as Super Serum.

AM...Cleanse, Super Serum, Intensive Moisturizer

PM...Cleanse, AHA Toner, Facelift Serum, Intensive Moisturizer.

I am willing to try it. I think I will buy samples first. I think it is probably best if I intoduce 1 new product at a time. What do you think?

Yes, one product at a time is ideal!
