Skin regimen (old regimen)
This is my old regimen. I will be updating with my new regimen to include my anti-agiing skin products soon!!
Morning
- I wash my face with Dermalogica clearing skin wash.
- I apply Proactiv revitalizing toner.
- I apply my sunscreen if I’m going out. I usually just wear a foundation that has sunscreen.
- *I don’t apply any sunscreen if I’m not leaving the house* I usually just apply Derma e-peptide
Night
- I wash my face with Dermalogica clearing skin wash
- Next, I apply my toner: Stridex medicated pads 2% salicylic acid (alcohol-free)
- I apply my facial treatment. I usually alternate them. On one day, I use Retin-A cream. On the next day, I use any Benzoyl peroxide gel (e.g Mary Kay Acne gel)l and then the next day, I go back again to the Retin-A.
- I apply my night lotion (these days, I alternate between Meladerm pigment reducing complex and Cerave moisturizing lotion pm abut it can change soon).
On Friday nights
- I wash my face with Dermalogica clearing skin wash.
- I apply a skin peel and rinse it off after about 5-8 minutes (once or twice a month)
- I steam my face for about 10 minutes (when I have the strength! LOL!)
- I apply my facial mask (e.g Proactiv refining mask) and leave it on for about 15 minutes
- I apply a corticosteroid cream to calm my face down.
Products I use
- Cleansers: Any anti-bacterial facewash. Products I rotate are Sebamed Clear Face Cleansing Foam and Dermalogica clearing skin wash.
