between Dermalogica and Biore which one is better?
My cousin just gave me this huge bottle of Dermalogica Medibac clearing face wash and i am still in shock that she gave me it for free, i know it’s really expensive. I currently use Biore Ice cleansing face wash to keep from breakout and so far it’s been keeping my acne to a bare minimal. NOW i am unsure of the value of this product and don’t know if i should actually take this as seriously as she tells me to because i tried some and i feel i have become spoiled with the cooling effects Biore has on my skin BUT if this product is as great as it says it is i will use it in moderation, if not i have an idea of using it on my upper arms while in he shower because i seem to be having a bit of a problem there nowadays =[ please tell me! is this product better than Biore? if it is than i will have an idea of how moderately i should use this product.
As much as I love Dermalogica Products, I say stick to what is working for you. It sounds to me like the Biore is doing the trick. Keep using that till it runs out, then go ahead and try your free Medibac and see how your skin likes it. It’s hard to get an accurate picture on how a product works until after a couple of weeks. Your skin needs time to adjust to new products. Good luck.

what face products should i use?
i have no idea what to use anymore.
currently i use blackhead scrub with micro beads
and clearasil deep pore wash ( both for shower )
and After my shower i use,
clean and clear TONER,
and Garner pure A moisturizer.
and when i get acne breakouts i use clearasil acne treatment cream.
the skin fitness that i go to suggested that i use their
kit thing with a shower scrub thing, and toner n moisturizer ( which is all called dermalogica )
its kind of working except i have a rash or something on my cheeks which isn’t itchy or sore, just yuck!
does anyone have suggestions on what i should try?
for shower scrubs, toner and moisturizer?
my skin is pretty good except for some acne now and again
and acne scars, and at the moment, the rash lump things.
i get alot of blackheads to.
and my skin has a bit of redness to it.
also i dont want any products that will reck my skin over time, like dy it out or something, just something to keep it healthy and looking good.
thanks.
I highly recommend DDF and Peter Thomas Roth. They are both clinical skin care brands and are reasonably priced. (very cheap on strawberrynet.com)
Avoid drugstore brands like Garnier and Clearasil. From personal experience (I have used both) and from reading many online reviews, this products are very harsh and generally ineffective.
I would strongly recommend discontinuing with the products giving you the rash. Redness and rashs you have are most likely a sign of irritation. Your acne may also be partly caused due to irritation which causes the skin to over-produce oil .To have great-looking skin, you need to eliminate irriation.
Stop using any product which irritates your skin (signs include redness, stinging/tingling).
Irritation is both unsightly and can cause acne to break out if you are prone to it. Irritation to your skin can also inflame existing acne.
What to look for in products?
Cleanser
Aim for a water-based, non-foaming cleanser which doesn’t dry out the skin. Cetaphil (the original version) is absolutly wonderful. It cleanses without stipping your skins natural oils and leaves skin very soft.
Avoid “foamy” cleansers which can irritate your skin.
You can also use Jojoba oil.
Toner
Always use an alcohol free toner. Alcohol can strip the skin’s oils and cause redness, irriation and acne.
I recommend:
Neutrogena alcohol-free toner
Clarins alcohol-free toner for oily/combo skin
Skinceuticals Equalizing toner
DDF Aloe toning complex (my toner at the moment)
Scrub
Again, be careful because scrubs can easily irritate your skin. Try to find a gentle scrub and use it 2 – 3 times per week.
If possible, try to find a scrub which has AHA and/or BHA in it. These are chemical exfoliants which are very, very helpful in fighting acne and blackheads.
I use Peter Thomas Roth AHA/BHA Face and Body Polish and it is superb. It has really helped with my acne.
I also recommend:
Clarins Gentle Facial Scrub (not the Facial Peeling one)
Moisterizer
The best moisterizer I have used is Neutrogena Anti-Wrinkle cream. You don’t have to have wrinkles to use it. It contains Retinol which exfoliates skin cells. It helps to fade acne scars, reduces blackheads and makes your skin very smooth and radiant-looking. It is also very non-irritating.
Otherwise any oil-free moisterizer would be good for your skin. Again, avoid cheap ones like clearasil which often contain irritating substances.
Cost effective alternatives I have tried are Jojoba oil and rosehip oil. Both are fantastic moisterizers and make your skin look great. Don’t put on too much (just a few drops) otherwise they will make your skin oily.
Mask
If you want a good, cheap mask you can make at home, dissolve some asprins (about 5-6) in a few drops of water. Mix it with honey, apply to your face and wait about 20 minutes. Your skin will look beautiful afterwards.
Remember
Wash your face *gently* with lukewarm water. Hot water is irritating to the skin.
*Pat* (don’t rub) your face dry with a soft towel.
You can find cheap cosmetics on strawberrynet. I always get mine that way
