I try to keep it simple, and also watch what I eat. I cut out dairy and soy milk as well (drink rice milk). Anything that may contain hormones as does milk/soy will cause break outs/red spots.

Shaving:
Gellitte ProGlide
Jack Black 'Supreme' Cream Triple Cushion Shave Lather

Morning after rinse face (lukewarm, no towels (too harsh)), lotion up EVERYDAY:
Olay Beauty Fluid SPF 15
Too lazy to find an alternative but this has been working great. Would like it to have higher SPF and less oily throughout day, otherwise +++++

Shower, bust out your facial cleanser:
Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash Daily Scrub
Use this daily, not harsh on skin. You may want to try it every other day at the beginning to let your skin get use to it. Very refreshing, just a small dab; I like to use like a size of a penny.

At night, rinse face again (lukewarm water), floss your teeth!, apply this after 10min or so:
Paula's Choice Exfoliating 2% BHA (Beta Hydroxy Acid) Liquid

Clear skin everyday! No more worrying about waking up with a surprise. I can finally wake up, wash up, get dressed, fix hair and run out the door. FYI, my skin is SUPER sensitive...I'll get small rashes if there is slightest thing on my skin/red spots that will itch. I have been following this 'routine' 3+ years and it has been working. Again, nothing too complicated...


Anyone use a brow wax that they can recommend?

I am looking for recommendations for a new daily face wash.  I have larger pores on my nose that I have to deal with.  I was thinking something with glycolic acid or beta hydroxy.  Is this the right line of thinking to minimize the look of large pores?  And can anyone recommend me a face wash that has these and is easily found in a CVS?  Thanks, friends.

Just use Cetaphil for cleansing and Witch Hazel to help shrink the pores.

I have considered witch hazel, but it seems too close to alcohol for my liking.  I feel like it may strip my skin of all oils completely.

You can get a giant container of Cetaphil from Costco for less than $20 and it will last months.
