What Is Your Beauty Regime?

[phleb]

Do you cleanse tone? have regular facials/massages? use regular face scrub, and face wash? Do you use a face mask every so often? Have you had Botox? or any other kind of facial tone up kinda thing.

I am interested so i can pick up some tips from some of you abers.

I don't wear makeup and never use soap on my face. Skin is holding up fine.

[bednobs]

i just wake up and my face is there!
never worn make up (well i wore clear mascara and lipgloss when i got married)
i don't actually ever wash my face - just put it under the shower

I rarely wash my face with soap, I have great skin. The only outbreaks I get are when I am run down. I would not have botox, pain intolerant !

[vodkancoke]

I use Clarins foaming cleanser, toner and moisturiser. I exfoliate once a week and I have regular facials and massages. I wear make-up (I need it!) so I make sure every last trace of it i gone before my head hits the pillow. I have never had Botox, the thought of it freaks me out! My doc suggested it for my migraines before he remembered my panic at needles!

haven't used soap on my face since i was 16, i should use more moisturiser but i don't. that's about it, most beauty products should be labelled 'for vanity purposes only'

I hope so Sloopy, my Mum is a hottie and I would love to look like her at her age. lol ;)

[humbersloop]

it's so true though voddie


I'm going for it too

[sherrardk]

I started not using soap on my face as I don't like it going in my eyes (who does). I should probably use some sort of face cream (can't spell moisturiser) but baby cream now and then keeps the worst at bay.

I use a facial cleanser wipe at night. At my great age I have gone for the age defying type Oreal produce. Little else unless I grab some vaseline for the eyelashes to work their strengthening magic overnight.
In the morning whatever the latest Avon, Aldi or whatever I am currently believing in to smother over the wrinkles, then makeup;
Facials are great but not often due to cost.
Would never go for Botox. Dont trust it personally.
I think that relaxing your face whenever you think about it, facial exercises if you can be bothered and plenty of sleep are your best helps.

I was feeling quite happy til Sloopy posted. :-(

[askyourgran]

I wash my face morning and night with soap and water. Occasionally I'll use an Apricot facial scrub. I do wear foundation and mascara but make sure it's all washed off every night. Use moisturiser every day.

[humbersloop]

nah gness, you can't beat clean living and a clear conscience


I have a clear conscience, does that count?

[gness]

Well I'm doomed then, Sloopy.

[pusskin]

Not putting on my moisturiser every day , would be like going out with no knickers on!

I was always told not to use soap on my face but this is what i've been using everyday for many years and then creaming my face straight afterwards. Because my face is stripped of the top layer of dead skin as well as it's natural oils my body compensates by producing excessive oil which can be bothersome at times especially during hot weather or halfway during the day but amazingly it's left my skin plump and youthful with many people telling me i have flawless skin and don't look my age.

Some friends have tried this but it doesn't seem to work for everyone so i'm one of the lucky ones :)
