Neutrogena Naturals Purifying Daily Facial Cream Cleanser $4.03 @ Walmart.com

This creamy, all natural cleanser not only removes makeup and dirt, but it also has natural salicylic acid made from wintergreen in it to help treat and prevent acne and blackheads. I have never had a problem with it breaking my skin out. It cleanses without drying out you skin which most acne cleansers tend to do. While searching for the link and price of this, I have noticed that maybe it has become discontinued. I originally purchased this at CVS.com and it was no longer available. I have seen it at Ulta and most other drugstores, so this is not a good sign. PLEASE DO NOT DISCONTINUE!!

Update! I believe they changed the name: Neutrogena Naturals Purifying Daily Facial Cream Cleanser. It does have salicylic acid in it. I have not tried it, but will try it once I run out of my holy grail.

Aveda Tourmaline Charged Exfoliating Cleanser $29.00 @ Aveda.com

This is an anti-aging and exfoliating cleanser where a little goes a long way. It is a daily cleanser (however, I use about 3 times a week) with jojoba exfoliating beads that help increase cell turnover and remove impurities in the skin. Unfortunately, Aveda either took it away or changed the name. I cannot say that the Botanical Kinetics Exfoliating Creme Cleanser is the same thing, but it really does sound like it is. When I run out (which does take some time, it seems to last forever), I will be trying the *cross your fingers* dupe.

FACE MASKS

Freeman Cucumber Peel Off Mask $6.26 @ Amazon

I feel like the price went up on these. I could have sworn you could buy them for under $4. Anyways, this peel off mask is amazing. Not only is it fun to peel off, but it is made with botanical, cucumber, melon, and ginseng extracts to help a silky feeling complexion. I love this whole line of masks. Freeman makes masks from MORE peel off types to scrubs to clay masks all at a decent price.

GLAMGLOW YOUTHMUD $25.00 @ Sephora

This mask is the bomb. It helps clear up my skin by absorbing inpurities and tightening pores. It is on the pricey side, which is why I have always gotten the smaller size.

Peter Thomas Roth Firmx Peeling Gel $48.00 @ Sephora

OMG I CANNOT BEGIN. Peeling gel is something you have to try if you have not. It is going to be the strangest thing you have ever tried, but you will not regret it. It takes off the dead layer of skin and leaves behind the smooth, flake free skin that is perfect for applying makeup afterwards. I received this in a Sephora Play subscription box, and purchased another in a small Peter Thomas Roth gift set. The small "travel" sizes go a long way. $48 is for a full size.

Drunk Elephant T.L.C. Sukari Babyfacial $80.00 @ Sephora

I recieved this in another Sephora Play subscription box and became obsessed. Can I say it burns though? Like really burns. It feels like your face is melting off with a lazer. HOWEVER, it is tolerable and afterwards...your skin is baby soft. The burning is probably from the 25% AHA and 2% BHA, plus the blend of glycolic,  tartaric, lactic, citric, and salicylic acids. It is probably on the more expensive side if purchasing the full size. If you can find it in a gift set, it is worth it. You only have to use it once a week.

SERUMS & MOISTURIZERS

Sunday Riley U.F.O. Ultra-Clarifying Face Oil $40.00 @ Sephora

Already on the second bottle, this face oil is life changing. It is a fast absorbing medicated dry oil to clear congested pores, treat and prevent acne, and smooth the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. I have seen the results and it is a product totally meant for someone who still has breakout and wants to start preventing wrinkles. My favorite part is the smell and that it is green. Silly, I know, but I do enjoy using this product. It comes in a larger size, however the smaller size has lasted me a year.

 

CeraVe Skin Renewing Cream Serum $16.99 @ Ulta Beauty

A serum with retinol and ceramides that is designed to dimish the look of fine lines and wrinkles while protecting and repairing skin's natural barrier. A girl like me likes to be preventative. You really can help prevent aging at any age. It is never too early or late to start. This is a decent priced product that won't make you break out and can also help fight acne as well with retinol.

MAC Prep + Prime Skin Base Visage $31.00 @ MAC

Great moisturizer and primer in one for under your makeup. There is even little glitters in it that add a  glow to your skin. The best part is that you do not break out and a little goes a long way.

ACNE TREATMENT

Bye Bye Blemish Acne Drying Lotion $8.86 @ Amazon

The best acne spot treatment available. Take a q-tip and place a dot of this pink product and overnight your acne spot will be dried up.

HAND CREAM

Eucerin Advanced Repair Hand Cream $4.59 @ Amazon

I have really dry hands from stress eczema. This really helps it. What I like about this hand cream is that it dries completely fast and leaves a smooth finish. You do not need a lot.

LIP BALM

Caudalie Lip Conditioner $12.00 @ Amazon

I am beginning to swear by this product. As well as having dry hands, I also get really bad chapped lips. On my quest to finding the best lip balm, I discovered this lip conditioner. It is one pricey chapstick, but it is FANTASTIC. It is one that I apply at night and when I wake up, my lips have never felt better.

C.O. Bigelow Rose Salve $6.99 @ Amazon

This was a product that could go under hand creams or lip balms. Rose Salve can be used for a multitude of purposes. My main use is to help chapped lips. When I feel like I need a thicker product, I go to this. It is also good for dry skin anywhere.

EYE TREATMENTS

Garnier Ulta Lift Miracle Sleeping Cream $8.49 @ Amazon

Eye creams are designed the be used during the day. Applying them at night, you can wake up with puffy eyes and it is not a cute look. This eye cream is one that you can use at night and I try to use every night. Not only is it anti aging, but it also helps with dark circles.

Milk Makeup Cooling Water $24.00 @ Sephora

This is honestly a luxury product for me. It is cooling and moisturizing. I place mine in the refrigerator and every morning, rub it underneath my eyes. It just feels good.

TOOLS

Jade Roller $5.40 @ Amazon

Honestly, do not even think about purchasing a pricey jade roller. I purchased mine off of WISH and it does the same thing as the rollers that go up to $30.00. Who knows if it is even real "jade". The jade really is not what is going to help your skin. It is the motion of pressure and rolling that helps inflammation. I like to use it to rub my creams and serums in. Plus under the eyes, it feels good. 

I like things that just feel good.
