What is your skin like? My skin is normal, combination with an oily T-Zone.  What is your main concern? Hydration, calming redness, congested pores and prevention of premature aging.  What does your skincare regimen consist of? See below.    Morning  Cleanse: La Roche Posay Effaclar Deep Cleansing Foaming Cleanser foams up to a rich lather and rids my skin of daily grime and buildup. My pores are purified and smaller, but my skin is not too dry or tight.  Tone: La Roche Posay Effaclar Toner Astringent Lotion rids my skin of dead skin cells and impurities deep within my pores. LHA micro-exfoliates the skin leaving in smoother and clear.  Prevent: iS Clinical C-15 Serum Advance Plus is my go to vitamin C serum. It not only contains 15% vitamin C, but also has copper tripeptide growth factors. So, I’m getting my anti-oxidant protection to prevent pre-mature aging and increasing collagen production and repair existing damage simultaneously.  Hydrate: I love, love, love Kinerase Pro Therapy Lotion with Kinetin and Zeatin as my daily moisturizer. It’s a lightweight formula that gives my combination skin just what it needs. It’s the right balance for my oily T-Zone and normal skin on cheeks and forehead. It’s great to apply right before makeup application, my foundation glides on nice and smooth. Kinerase is also great for repairing sun damage and for sensitive skin types.  Protect: La Roche Posay Anthelios 60 Ultra Light Sunscreen Fluid is great for people like me who don’t like the look or feel of sunscreen. This is the lightest weight, non-greasy sunscreen I’ve ever felt. It provides great sun protection and has a matte finish.  Evening  Cleanse: Same as AM routine.    Tone: Same as AM routine.  Prevent: Topix Replenix Retinol Plus Smoothing Serum 3x is great for evening out my ruddy skin tone and keeping my occasional breakouts at bay. It also contains green tea polyphenols and hyaluronic acid for extra antioxidant protection and hydration.  Hydrate: Right before bed I like to use Jurlique Purely Age-Defying Night Lotion. This lotion is great for my combination skin type and is full of natural ingredients like licorice, black elder, marshmallow and calendula. My skin is refreshed, hydrated, and more even toned when waking in the morning.  Treatment: For an occasional hormonal breakout, La Roche Posay Effaclar AI zaps unwanted invaders. It has a potent blend of benzoyl peroxide and salicylic acid to kill acne causing bacteria and slough off dead skin cells. This formula does not cause any irritation like many acne products can and does the trick with just a few applications.   Coming tomorrow: Nadyne’s regimen
