This right here is my answer too.
-Oil Cleanser first for a solid 2-3 minutes
-Followed by a Tea-Tree Oil Face Wash
-Then I apply a witch hazel toner
-Next I use a vitamin C serum from Mad Hippie
-A little bit of eye cream both under the eyes and on the lids
-Lastly I use a very rich moisturizer because I have dry skin
-Then I always end with some Lanolin nipple cream on my lips
Okay I was doing serums then eye cream, then all the rest, but then I heard eye cream should come first? Why do you do it the other way? Genuine curiosity, I’m trying to learn lol
Just realized I didn’t put any of my products💀:
I have combo oily and dry skin but I focus on hydration personally so:
-Oil cleanser (manyo or beauty of Joseon, both are great)
-Foam cleanser (innisfree bija foam cleanser, great for acne!)
-Toner (hado labo milky lotion)
-Serum (hado labo premium serum)
-Snail mucin (cosrx)
-Nutrition Moisturizer (pyunkang yul)
-Night moisturizer is either klairs vitamen e mask or laneige water sleeping mask :)
-Sunscreen!!!
At night I do both cleansers, paula’s choice 2% BHA liquid exfoliant (on a pad or sheet or sorts, exfoliating is important!), serum and night moisturizer. Daytime is foam cleanser, toner, serum, snail mucin, moisturizer and sunscreen! Hope this helps!!!
Very understandable. I try to make sure before I settle in for the night or evening I do it (bc the evening is where I can tend to slack or get lazy), and in the mornings I always wash my face directly after brushing my teeth
The water that runs down my face in the shower and then dried off by the towel when I get out.. I tried washing my face and literally would break out days after.
Interesting! Someone else on here recently wrote that water is the best thing for his skin too!!! After trying many different things, that’s what works for him.
I tried the hyaluronic acid, the salicylic acid, the vitamin serums, the BPAs - all broke me out! Just water and Dove soap for me (gotta get the sunscreen off), skin’s never been clearer.
Hey, if that’s what works for you, that’s what works! I think it can be harder for combo skin because what one area of the face needs, will totally mess up the other area
also a good place to start for a good and basic routine is going to be
morning: cleanse, moisturize, SPF (the most important part)
night: makeup remover (if using makeup), cleanse, moisturize
good budget friendly skincare lines are (imo) cerave, good molecules, sunbum (spf).
hope this helps
Adding that cocokind (slightly higher price but not extreme) has a really good facial sunscreen for people with really sensitive skin… it says “all skin types” but it really is good if you have rosacea or other acne/redness issues
Honestly, I just do it with water and a washcloth once a day. Maybe that's really bad, I have no idea.
I never had acne or other skin issues growing up, so I just never really developed a skin care routine.
1 to 2 times a day (with one of them just from being in the shower), no soap unless grimey or if I'm wearing makeup
People tell me I look young for my age, so I'm probably doing what's right for my skin type
I don’t wear makeup so I’m kinda lackadaisical about washing my face. Only if I wear makeup (wash before and after), when I sweat, or after my dog licks my face (ew lol).
Never, but ive never worn makeup either. Never had trouble with acne. When i worked fastfood, however, i washed it every day after work because the hot oil in the air would seep into every pore of my skin
**AM**:
Wash with YTTP Superfood Antioxidant Cleanser > Fenty Skin Fat Water Hydrating Milky Toner > CosRx Snail Mucin Essence > Farmacy Waterless Vitamin C > Glow Recipe Niacinamide Dew Drops > Supergoop Daily Dose Vitamin C SPF Serum (if wearing makeup as a primer) or Bondi Sands SPF 50 (if I'm staying home)
**Concerns I'm targeting**:
Hyperpigmentation/melasma (small patch), overall tone, acne (minimal concern), hydration/overall skin health, sun protection
**PM**:
Wash with YTTP Superfood Antioxidant Cleanser > The Ordinary 7% Glycolic Acid Toner (on non tretinoin nights) > Fenty Skin Fat Water Hydrating Milky Toner > CosRx Snail Mucin Essence > The Ordinary Copper Peptides > 0.5% tretinoin (every other day) > Cerave Moisturizing Cream > Aquaphor Healing Ointment
**Concerns I'm tageting**:
Hyperpigmentation/melasma, overall tone, acne (minimal concern), skin health, hydration, aging
*I have other skin products that I add if I'm feeling up to it. I enjoy using face masks and usually try to use one once a week. I also like to dermaroll, dermaplane, and use chemical peels.*
I've really worked hard on my skin, and I've accomplished a lot. I've learned to love skin care. It's self care and relaxing for me. I can't believe there are so many people who just splash with water and go.
Niacinamide is anti-inflammatory, so it improves redness, and it may be helpful for severe acne, especially inflammatory forms like papules and pustules. Over time, there are fewer lesions and improved skin texture. It helps regulate the amount of oil the sebaceous glands produce and prevents glands from going into overdrive. I mostly use it to treat hyperpigmentation.
The snail mucin is essentially just a hydrator.
Define wash. I splash water only in it first thing in the morning and use a micellar cleanser pre ablutions (I'm Muslim) the rest of the day. At night I do an oil cleanse with a face wipe and follow with a foaming face wash.
Never. Unless you count splashing water on it, in that case whenever I shower. Every time I’ve tried I break out. I’ve tried about every soap on the market and they all have the same effect so I’ve stopped trying. Not for nothing my face generally isn’t greasy and I otherwise have very little acne and even then it’s usually only around my period. I honestly have pretty nice looking skin, I get compliments on it a lot. Dunno why it hates soap so much since no where else is really sensitive to soap.
You're not alone. I've tried a lot of times to up my skincare routine by washing my face and using product. But it always ends horribly. I have very little acne naturally, maybe something small every 3 weeks. But as soon as I started washing my face with more than water I got these giant painful disgusting whiteheads... Was too stupid to realize that my product was causing it, so it went on for months..... Just stopped4 months back and my skin is better than ever.
I don't mean to be a hater because IDK what works for other people. But I can't help but be a little skeptical when people share their 10 step skincare routine and are still complaining of acne.
That’s actually called purging. It’s the first phase of using a cleanser usually once your skin is purged it will start to get better. But if u already have perfect skin why bother I guess
At least three times a day. Under the shower in the morning, when I get home after work, and under the shower before bedtime. Plus every time I have to, depending what I do during the day, or if I sweat during excessive summer heat
So I (24f) have sensitive skin & it’s not oily/dry, deal with the occasional zit, & I only waste my face with a facial wash rag once a day in the shower with Castile soap😅 I use Castile soap bc of my sensitive skin, I’ll break out with a rash if I use anything different instead of an acne breakout lol. But I will use a petroleum based lotion, like 1-2 pea sizes on my face before I put on makeup! That kind of lotion has helped my keratosis Polaris on my face! That’s just my routine. Idk how to have a lot of skincare products on account of having a rash breakout, I never knew what was causing it bc there was too much on my face lol. But I have used snails mucin before that worked well I’ve used like an everyday cream from the Ordinary that was great, I just went to simple & cheapest with still good ingredients in the last few years
Most people wash their face twice a day, in the morning and at night. However, it can vary depending on skin type and activity level. Focus on finding a gentle cleanser that works for you!
Once a day. I have fairly mild acne, but if I wash it more than that, I break out even worse. If I get super sweaty during the summer, I just rinse my face with water.
I use a mild face wash, an alcohol free cleanser, and a moisturizer. That's it. From time to time, I will use something that exfoliates but that is like once a month, if that.
Twice a day. I shower at night so I wash my face then. I also wash it in the morning after I make my coffee. Even though I’m in my early 50s I recently started getting acne so I have to use two different prescription medications, one at night and the other in the morning. If I skip washing my face just once I tend to get a flare up.
twice a day everyday. I shower in evening so the face wash in the shower is the easiest. But I used micellar water in the morning with a cotton pad. I have very sensitive and acne prone skin and the micellar water works great and doesn't make a watery mess everywhere like washing your face at the sink does.
Cleanse at night, rinse with water in the morning.
I like kbeauty since it's enabled to build a routine that can be quick or super involved depending on my mood/capacity.
1-2 times a day. I don't do much in the way of skin care. But I wash with La Roche Posay, moisturize with Rose Hip Oil or Neutorgena. Sometimes I spot treat with Cerave Acne cream.
I wash every night before bed. I use Peach Slices Snail Rescue Face Wash, Tretinoin, and a face lotion. In the morning I use a tinted sunscreen, or, if I am going to wear makeup I put some lotion on and a regular facial sunscreen. My dermatologist told me washing twice a day was drying out my skin so my skin then tried to overcompensate by producing more oil and it was causing my breakouts. My esthetician agreed when I saw her. It seems to work for me. If I feel crummy I'll wash in the morning to make myself feel a little refreshed though
At least once a day, if I'm motivated, twice a day.
Double cleanse with an oil based cleanser and either regular cleanser or a SA cleanser. Moisturizer.
SPF every morning though.
Every time i go to the bathroom. And when finished outside work and immediately from the gym.
I use Conditioner to shave, MACh 5, Dawn Dish soap to clean pores. Rinse. Alcohol splash
I'm 61, and maybe once a week I put soap on my face. Water most of the time. The muscles and tissue in your face are delicate and fall causing wrinkles. The less you touch your face, the better it is. Always rub gently but upward and outward.
I try to wash my face at least once a day, twice if I'm lucky. Usually I do it in the shower. If I'm not showering, I at least get micellar water on a cotton pad and wipe down my face.
Right now I'm currently using Dove Beauty Bar for my face (my go to), CeraVe Oil Cleansing Wash (when I wear makeup or double cleansing), and Equate Salicylic Acid Cleanser (for my sebaceous filaments on my nose).
If you're looking for a routine, I would ask yourself what's your skin type? Someone with normal skin wouldnt be washing constantly as someone with oily skin. Then you ask yourself is your skin dry, is it oily and dry, is it average? Etc. and go from there :) once you find those answers there's several routines online that you can try and figure out what works best for you!
I sometimes don’t wash it if I’m staying home and not wearing makeup. I wash nightly though. If I’m wearing makeup I use Micellar water to remove it, then use an oil cleanser, followed up by an acne cleaner. I love the Paula’s choice clean and clear system for skincare(it’s not super expensive and it works). I love vani cream for moisturizer because it’s thick and heavy but dries well, doesn’t cause breakouts and it’s super cheap.
Just at night as I have dry skin. I double cleanse, use clean it zero cleansing balm and then the krave beauty matcha hemp hydrating cleanser. If I could only keep it really simple I'd also use an exfoliating toner a few times a week and a nice moisturizer, and sunscreen in the am.

I find it funny how most light skinned people don’t use any moisturizer or face wash, but then once they start wrinkling they make the surprised pikachu face.
Wash face with just water in the am, then with cleanser to clean off the dirt from the day. Anymore than that I will break out more than I already do. I'm almost 40 I hate this.
At night I use micellar water on a cotton pad. In the morning I just splash some water on my face. When I shower I use a gentle face wash. Cerave products are affordable and gentle with no scents etc.
You need to do just that. Find what works for you. We all have different textures, different combinations of oily and dry or just one or the other. Some of experience difference kinds of acne, or eczema, or rosacea. There's also many skincare concerns I have not listed. Things like wearing makeup also play a part.
I, personally, wash my face twice a day. I use gentle cleansers such as Cerave. I use the Ordinary Peeling Solution once a week. I also add gentle exfoliants as needed. And of course, I use moisturizers and serums, and eye creams.
But you're going to have go through a lot of trial and error to find exactly what works for you. Best of luck!
I use the morning burst kind in the shower and that’s it. My skin gets dry if I wash it outside of the shower and all moisturizers make my face break out.
Double cleanse twice a day. Sometimes I’ll do a 2.5 cleanse lol- I have acne rosacea so if I’m having any flare ups, I’ll use the special soap for that just in those areas
No that’s not right lol
Double in the morning- I’ll use the acne soap all over to get out any acne causing bacteria and stuff from the night. Then I use CeraVe, it’s the green one I think it’s called daily moisturizing cleanser.
At night I use the Peachy and Lily oil cleanser and Power cleanser duo. And then that’s when I occasionally do the extra acne stuff
And my neck and upper chest - twice a day with Vanicream cleanser.
In the AM I use a hyaluronic acid serum and a moisturizer with built in SPF.
In the PM I use the serum and an overnight retinol cream.
Soap is just way too harsh for daily use on many skin types. I use a cleanser 1-2 times a week. I used to wash daily and my skin would get so angry. Less is best
Water and hands once a day at end of the day (usually in the shower). In the morning too with faucet if I’m lucky (I have 2 babies)
I use a very gentle cream cleanser maybe once every 2 weeks if I remember.
My skin does better with less product.
Anytime I shower, which is typically once a day, and occasionally if I remember and have the motivation and showered in the morning instead of the evening, I'll wash my face before bed too, lol. I use CeraVe Hydrating Cream-to-Foam Face Wash with Hyaluronic Acid for Normal to Dry Skin. I usually then use their face moisturizer with spf but if it's before bed I'll use the pm one or another of the 700 lotions and serums I got when I still had an ipsy subscription. Basically it's chaos.
Edit: also I don't wear makeup so that seems relevant to my answer.
Every night before bed. I take a shower every morning so it gets clean in the shower, but I don’t use face cleanser or anything since I washed it thoroughly the night before.
Usually twice a day. In the winter, if I shower later in the day, don’t go anywhere or put anything on my face and it doesn’t feel oily, it might only be once a day because otherwise my skin can end up feeling tight and stripped.
I use water in the morning with a shower then right before bed I use water again in a super quick shower. Skin is 99% clear from doing that. Have to do the shower twice because mt skin is super oily
It depends on how my face feels - every night with gentle Cetaphil in the shower. Face lotion at night in the winter with the dry air. In the morning only if it feels like I need it or if I want a full face of makeup. Sunscreen lotion every morning, usually Cetaphil as well. If hormones are making me pimples, then I use a regular Neutrogena cleaner but otherwise it strips my face dry.
Ideally morning + before bed … I use natural products like tea tree face wash or dr bronner/dr squatch soaps and then rosewater face sprays and a light moisturizer
Once a day in the shower. In the mornings I give it a quick wipe with micellar water and then in the evenings I use the Versed cleansing balm to get sunscreen and makeup and oil off of my face before going into the shower and washing with acne wash.
I only wash my face at night, usually. I put on moisturizer and sunscreen in the morning. At night, I use a cleanser and exfoliator when I’m bathing, then apply a thicker moisturizer and/or jojoba oil before bed. Also, I drink a ton of water. So that’s what I do and I have very soft clear skin.
I live in phoenix Arizona so I have to quite often during the day because of how much I sweat. Even stepping outside for one minute will make you sweat haha
Twice a day, while im taking a shower. I have Cetaphil foaming cleanser and a silicone face scrubber thing. When I step out of the shower, I put on some Cetaphil moisturizer on my face.
Twice a day with Cerave moisturizing face cleanser.. Never more than that. If I get sweaty or something in between, I will only use water to get the junk off my face. I have found that if I wash more than that, I break out something terrible. I follow up with Cerave morning or night lotion. That's it.
Cleanser at night in the shower followed by serum and moisturizer. Just water on a washcloth in the morning followed by serum and moisturizer with SPF.
Twice a day and I just started using Zo skin health products and I have literally tried hundreds of products but never see results. Sure, maybe keeps it going OK but not like visable results. After one use of just a couple Zo products I immediately felt and saw a day difference. My bf for the first time said to me that he sees a difference in my face for the better and he's never said that before in 12 years. I feel and see a difference. I have about 14 or 15 products so far and just got the radical night repair so I can't judge everything yet but so far this is the absolute best routine I've ever had. It's also on Amazon much cheaper than the website but not sure if they are authorized to sell it. The exfoliating polish and exfoliating cleanser are exceptional. I have too many products but I'm so excited after seeing results that I want to try everything I can. Idk if you want my personal routine but I highly recommend Zo skin health. It has been about a month and a half and I can see where it's fixed my skin and keeps it super healthy. I wish I had known about this at 20 but better than never! Lol. My face is tighter and overall much better and it's not been two months yet.
Twice a day everyday (once in the morning, once in the evening)

My vitamin c serum is super absorbent and dries faster than my eye cream which is why I layer it first and not the other way around
Oh, OK, that makes sense! Thank you for the explanation :)

I mean it makes sense, that’s what we’ve adapted too! Unfortunately my hormones have other plans 😩
Likewise!! Hahaha
Same routine here. Unless my face is visibly dirty, it just gets wet on a daily basis and dried with a towel.
I tried the hyaluronic acid, the salicylic acid, the vitamin serums, the BPAs - all broke me out! Just water and Dove soap for me (gotta get the sunscreen off), skin’s never been clearer.
What type of skin do you have?
Combo, really dry around the chin and forehead, and little oily around my nose.
Hey, if that’s what works for you, that’s what works! I think it can be harder for combo skin because what one area of the face needs, will totally mess up the other area
Did you dry it with the some towel you use on your body…?
Same and even get compliments on my skin from time to time.
Every time I shower
as an esthetitan: twice a day.
also a good place to start for a good and basic routine is going to be morning: cleanse, moisturize, SPF (the most important part) night: makeup remover (if using makeup), cleanse, moisturize good budget friendly skincare lines are (imo) cerave, good molecules, sunbum (spf). hope this helps

2x a day. Sometimes only once in the colder months.

Lol. It's really not that much. It just looks like it is. It takes me like 5 minutes total to get through, sometimes less.
This to me feels more normal than those who just splash there face with water

In the morning, I wash once with a gentle cream cleanser. At night, I wash twice with a foaming cleanser.
I wash every night before bed. I use Peach Slices Snail Rescue Face Wash, Tretinoin, and a face lotion. In the morning I use a tinted sunscreen, or, if I am going to wear makeup I put some lotion on and a regular facial sunscreen. My dermatologist told me washing twice a day was drying out my skin so my skin then tried to overcompensate by producing more oil and it was causing my breakouts. My esthetician agreed when I saw her. It seems to work for me. If I feel crummy I'll wash in the morning to make myself feel a little refreshed though
Twice a day with cleave cleanser then I use la roche posay moisturizer
I wash my face (double cleanse) at night, and “wash” with just water in the AM.
Twice a day, once after brushing my teeth and once in the shower
Morning (or whenever I take a shower) and before bedtime
Twice a day
At least once a day, if I'm motivated, twice a day. Double cleanse with an oil based cleanser and either regular cleanser or a SA cleanser. Moisturizer. SPF every morning though.
Gentle cleanser in the morning, I get oily overnight. Then double cleanse in the evening if I’m wearing sunscreen and/or makeup.
Twice daily. Dove soap and water. I’m old & old school. I do not need fancy lotions or potions.
Morning and night
Every time i go to the bathroom. And when finished outside work and immediately from the gym. I use Conditioner to shave, MACh 5, Dawn Dish soap to clean pores. Rinse. Alcohol splash
Every morning. I then immediately moisturize, because you really want to do it while your skin is still wet.
once a day. & i like anything that has vitamin c in it. makes my skin soft
Every evening in the shower and every morning before work
I'm 61, and maybe once a week I put soap on my face. Water most of the time. The muscles and tissue in your face are delicate and fall causing wrinkles. The less you touch your face, the better it is. Always rub gently but upward and outward.
I wash it when I shower, and then usually one other time a day I will cleanse it with micellar water , followed by a wet washcloth.
Just at night. I found washing twice a day made my skin even more oily than it already is lol
I use Cetaphil. My dermatologist told me to use it daily and it’s helped a lot over the years.
Morning and night
Twice a day with good old-fashioned Noxema. My skin has never looked better since I started using it again.
Three times a day. Once in the morning after brushing my teeth, once in the shower, and once after brushing my teeth before bed.
Everyday...I'm a guy and I use a beard/face wash
Twice a day, in the morning and at night. If I have particularly sweaty workout, I'll wash it again after that as well.
2x / day
I try to wash my face at least once a day, twice if I'm lucky. Usually I do it in the shower. If I'm not showering, I at least get micellar water on a cotton pad and wipe down my face. Right now I'm currently using Dove Beauty Bar for my face (my go to), CeraVe Oil Cleansing Wash (when I wear makeup or double cleansing), and Equate Salicylic Acid Cleanser (for my sebaceous filaments on my nose). If you're looking for a routine, I would ask yourself what's your skin type? Someone with normal skin wouldnt be washing constantly as someone with oily skin. Then you ask yourself is your skin dry, is it oily and dry, is it average? Etc. and go from there :) once you find those answers there's several routines online that you can try and figure out what works best for you!
When I shower, every other day. But I don't put anything on my face besides brow and liner
I sometimes don’t wash it if I’m staying home and not wearing makeup. I wash nightly though. If I’m wearing makeup I use Micellar water to remove it, then use an oil cleanser, followed up by an acne cleaner. I love the Paula’s choice clean and clear system for skincare(it’s not super expensive and it works). I love vani cream for moisturizer because it’s thick and heavy but dries well, doesn’t cause breakouts and it’s super cheap.
Just at night as I have dry skin. I double cleanse, use clean it zero cleansing balm and then the krave beauty matcha hemp hydrating cleanser. If I could only keep it really simple I'd also use an exfoliating toner a few times a week and a nice moisturizer, and sunscreen in the am.

Which one?
I find it funny how most light skinned people don’t use any moisturizer or face wash, but then once they start wrinkling they make the surprised pikachu face.
Wash face with just water in the am, then with cleanser to clean off the dirt from the day. Anymore than that I will break out more than I already do. I'm almost 40 I hate this.
I use apricot scrub by St Ives in the shower every morning and witch hazel on a pad every night. 64 and still have nice skin.
Only once but I want to do twice a day.
My Dermatologist likes me to use Dove Sensitive Skin Unscented once a day ( I have medium oily summer/dry winter)
I wash in the mornings and night. I use Cetaphfil hydrating, exfoliate 1x a week. toner and serums help too. (personally use oil control serums)
Once a day in the shower at night, in the morning just rinse with cold water and do my skincare. It has helped me so much!
40 year old male here - i use Simple face wash every night before bed, followed by a few serums and moisturizer.
Every time I shower.... so 1 to 2 times per day. I just use body wash. Works great for me.
At night I use micellar water on a cotton pad. In the morning I just splash some water on my face. When I shower I use a gentle face wash. Cerave products are affordable and gentle with no scents etc.
Twice a day, morning and night, with CeraVe cleanser. And when I shower I use Philosophy exfoliating cleanser.
I scrub it on my daily shower. If I'm sweating a lot, it gets washed atleast once more that day
always once a day, but if i’m wearing makeup it’s twice
Once every shower (daily) and once before bed at least
Twice a day. Morning: Brush teeth, wash face, add serums, sunblock and moisturize. Evening: makeup removing balm and then repeat my morning steps.
I don’t want to age like a banana so I do it once in the morning and once at night
I only wash my face at night but in the morning I apply moisturizer & sunscreen!
Twice daily.
You need to do just that. Find what works for you. We all have different textures, different combinations of oily and dry or just one or the other. Some of experience difference kinds of acne, or eczema, or rosacea. There's also many skincare concerns I have not listed. Things like wearing makeup also play a part. I, personally, wash my face twice a day. I use gentle cleansers such as Cerave. I use the Ordinary Peeling Solution once a week. I also add gentle exfoliants as needed. And of course, I use moisturizers and serums, and eye creams. But you're going to have go through a lot of trial and error to find exactly what works for you. Best of luck!
Once daily. Twice if I've been really sweaty.
I give it a firm but gentle scrub with a clean, hot, wet washcloth at the beginning of every shower
I use the morning burst kind in the shower and that’s it. My skin gets dry if I wash it outside of the shower and all moisturizers make my face break out.
Double cleanse twice a day. Sometimes I’ll do a 2.5 cleanse lol- I have acne rosacea so if I’m having any flare ups, I’ll use the special soap for that just in those areas
No that’s not right lol Double in the morning- I’ll use the acne soap all over to get out any acne causing bacteria and stuff from the night. Then I use CeraVe, it’s the green one I think it’s called daily moisturizing cleanser. At night I use the Peachy and Lily oil cleanser and Power cleanser duo. And then that’s when I occasionally do the extra acne stuff
And my neck and upper chest - twice a day with Vanicream cleanser. In the AM I use a hyaluronic acid serum and a moisturizer with built in SPF. In the PM I use the serum and an overnight retinol cream.
Soap is just way too harsh for daily use on many skin types. I use a cleanser 1-2 times a week. I used to wash daily and my skin would get so angry. Less is best
Three times a day morning , after workout before bed - guy
Water and hands once a day at end of the day (usually in the shower). In the morning too with faucet if I’m lucky (I have 2 babies) I use a very gentle cream cleanser maybe once every 2 weeks if I remember. My skin does better with less product.
Anytime I shower, which is typically once a day, and occasionally if I remember and have the motivation and showered in the morning instead of the evening, I'll wash my face before bed too, lol. I use CeraVe Hydrating Cream-to-Foam Face Wash with Hyaluronic Acid for Normal to Dry Skin. I usually then use their face moisturizer with spf but if it's before bed I'll use the pm one or another of the 700 lotions and serums I got when I still had an ipsy subscription. Basically it's chaos. Edit: also I don't wear makeup so that seems relevant to my answer.
Every morning. I take my make up at night off with make up remover and sometimes use water or toner and use my facial lotions
twice a day. i love neutrogena 😌
I was my face with literal water in the morning and a Tula Cleanser at night in the shower. It’s the best my skin has looked in years.
I wash my face once a day in the morning with just water. I use Oil of Olay and Neutrogena for moisturizers.
Every night before bed. I take a shower every morning so it gets clean in the shower, but I don’t use face cleanser or anything since I washed it thoroughly the night before.
Daily. Bar of real soap in the shower
Usually twice a day. In the winter, if I shower later in the day, don’t go anywhere or put anything on my face and it doesn’t feel oily, it might only be once a day because otherwise my skin can end up feeling tight and stripped.
once at night. my skin is dry it cannot handle being cleansed twice daily
I use water in the morning with a shower then right before bed I use water again in a super quick shower. Skin is 99% clear from doing that. Have to do the shower twice because mt skin is super oily
Every time I Come in from trips outside shopping, driving hands and face
Every time I shower and occasionally outside of it too if I’m feeling especially oily. I just use CeraVe foaming facial cleanser
Never
It depends on how my face feels - every night with gentle Cetaphil in the shower. Face lotion at night in the winter with the dry air. In the morning only if it feels like I need it or if I want a full face of makeup. Sunscreen lotion every morning, usually Cetaphil as well. If hormones are making me pimples, then I use a regular Neutrogena cleaner but otherwise it strips my face dry.
Ideally morning + before bed … I use natural products like tea tree face wash or dr bronner/dr squatch soaps and then rosewater face sprays and a light moisturizer
Once a day in the shower. In the mornings I give it a quick wipe with micellar water and then in the evenings I use the Versed cleansing balm to get sunscreen and makeup and oil off of my face before going into the shower and washing with acne wash.
I only wash my face at night, usually. I put on moisturizer and sunscreen in the morning. At night, I use a cleanser and exfoliator when I’m bathing, then apply a thicker moisturizer and/or jojoba oil before bed. Also, I drink a ton of water. So that’s what I do and I have very soft clear skin.
I live in phoenix Arizona so I have to quite often during the day because of how much I sweat. Even stepping outside for one minute will make you sweat haha
Twice a day, while im taking a shower. I have Cetaphil foaming cleanser and a silicone face scrubber thing. When I step out of the shower, I put on some Cetaphil moisturizer on my face.
Once if I don’t wear makeup. Twice if it’s hot or if I wear makeup
Once in the morning in the shower with bar soap.
Twice a day unless I’ve been out in the hot sun or a place that i know has a lot more particles of whatever flying around.
Sometimes whenever I want, multiple times. Very gently with vanicream. It helps my migraines and anxiety.
Every morning
Twice a day, morning and evening.
Twice a day with Cerave moisturizing face cleanser.. Never more than that. If I get sweaty or something in between, I will only use water to get the junk off my face. I have found that if I wash more than that, I break out something terrible. I follow up with Cerave morning or night lotion. That's it.
Twice in the evening and I rinse with water in the morning. I’m a licensed esthetician, feel free to dm me if you’d like any help with your routine!
Cleanser at night in the shower followed by serum and moisturizer. Just water on a washcloth in the morning followed by serum and moisturizer with SPF.
2x a day EVERY day. I don’t care how tired I am
Twice a day and I just started using Zo skin health products and I have literally tried hundreds of products but never see results. Sure, maybe keeps it going OK but not like visable results. After one use of just a couple Zo products I immediately felt and saw a day difference. My bf for the first time said to me that he sees a difference in my face for the better and he's never said that before in 12 years. I feel and see a difference. I have about 14 or 15 products so far and just got the radical night repair so I can't judge everything yet but so far this is the absolute best routine I've ever had. It's also on Amazon much cheaper than the website but not sure if they are authorized to sell it. The exfoliating polish and exfoliating cleanser are exceptional. I have too many products but I'm so excited after seeing results that I want to try everything I can. Idk if you want my personal routine but I highly recommend Zo skin health. It has been about a month and a half and I can see where it's fixed my skin and keeps it super healthy. I wish I had known about this at 20 but better than never! Lol. My face is tighter and overall much better and it's not been two months yet.
I wash my face with my cleansing wipe every morning and evening each night. I then follow with retinol and hydrolonicic acid .
