Default Soooo...can we talk skin care?

I wanna know what you use.

I'm a *stick with one brand* kinda girl...as in, I use all the products from one brand because I tend to think they are made to compliment each other, so I stay within that brand. I don't usually buy a Clinique face wash and a toner from Neutrogena, kwim?? I buy cleanser, toner, lotion, etc. all within the same brand typically. (At least I used to.)

I've used a few lines in my 33 years and I've been *happy* with them (Clinique, Paula's Choice, to name them ALL...LOL), but not ecstatic.

I'm looking for something that will not break the bank (i.e. - not going to be buying La Mer products over here...or even Bobbi Brown or Lancome, probably).

My skin is average. I don't get breakouts and it's generally pretty healthy looking. I don't do sun, so over exposure is not an issue.

I just feel like I'm getting to an age where I need to take better care of my skin and really find a brand that I like and stick with it. I've jumped around so much lately that I don't know where to go back to.

So, tell me what you like. Any products out there you can't live without? I'll do drugstore products, department store, anything as long as I can get the bare necessities to get me started for a reasonable price.

So, tell me, PLEASE!!

Thanks, girls!

I have tried so many different brands and they all seem to work for a month or two and then stop working the same. Right now, I am using stuff I got from a dermatologist. Though I am starting to wonder about products that will help me not get wrinkles, yet not give me pimples.

I was trained by a skin care specialist and she got me hooked on clinical care skin solutions. It was once a pharmecuticals line that became a professional you can now get from local spas!! Im hooked on the anti aging line

I have been using the Olay Regenerist line for about 3 years now. I love it! I notice I have started becoming almost obsessed with trying to prevent wrinkles around my eyes. I'm going to be 37 in a couple of weeks and I know that any day now I am going to start getting wrinkles under my eyes or start with the crows feet, so I use the eye lifting serum and the micro-sculpting cream almost every day. So far so good, but any day now.....

I've been using Artistry for close to 6 years now... LOVE it! They have many products from cleanser/toner/moisturize... to masks, eye cream, make-up, and anti-aging products.

I've never been disappointed with any of their products... and I think they last a long time because I feel like I need to use less to get same affects as using drugstore brands... however if you don't like it, there is a money back guarantee.

I'm an Arbonne girl. The initial cost might be a little bit up there, but it lasts soooo long! I'm needing a refill on lots of stuff, but it's been a year since my last order and I'm just running out now.
