HELP!!!

I have decided that my makeup just isn't working for me anymore!! I think my facial cleaner is too harsh for my skin and I am facing reality that I am not as young as I used to be. I have been using Clinique. Besides the fact that it does not even out my skin very well, I think it is the culprit to my Rosacea. I am asking any help from all you girls!! I am switching makeup and facewash but I have no idea where to start! Please help me. What makeup do you use that you like alot? I am researching MAC and Bare Escentuals, but I still do not know a lot. Help me!!

Sarah: I had someone ask me that same question the other day because she said my skin looked so good. I use Olay Clarify and Cleanse lathering cloths to wash my face and Neutrogena Healthy Skin face lotion with SPF for my moisturizer. Before I used these I was breaking out a lot and had funky dry patches, but I have been using these products for 7 years and hardly ever have problems. I have tried the bare essentials makeup and I like it a lot. You can vary the coverage depending on how much powder you use, but I have found that even a light coat covers pretty good. And drink a lot of water. Hope this helps.

Hey Sarah. I had fun seeing you guys tonight. We need to get together more often. I'm not a good source for makeup because I still use grocery store stuff. I have heard really good things about the Olay Regenerist line that you can get just about anywhere. As far as foundation goes... I use clinique. I really want to try bare minerals. Let me know if you try it. Good luck finding something that works!

I have always had such strange sensitive skin. Its funny what works for some, wont work for others. Anyway, I ended up using Proactive..but I only use it every other night, and on the off night I use a cream to moisturize. I have been so happy with it. And, I love love love Bobbi Brown makeup. Her line is so nice. It is a pricey product, but I love it. I use most of her makeup - but I just buy the cheap mascara. Good luck!! Hope you find just the right thing!!

I have the same issuses. Don't use MAC it totally clogged my pores and I broke out so bad. I've been using Origins foundation and I love it. I use Cetaphil for moisture and Khiels eye cream. I also use Philosophy face wash. I got a lot of these tips from Jamie's Sister who is an expert. She's really into only putting stuff on your skin that's healthy.

Getting older sucks, don't you think? I use Philosophy face wash, too (same as Amy). It's called Purity, and it's great. Jamie's sister is an esthetician and swears by it. It doesn't foam, so it took me a bit to get used to it, but I love it now. I use grocery store mascara and Bath & Body Works lip gloss, so I'm not one to ask for make-up tips. Good luck!
