I was wondering what face wash everyone uses. I use the Oil of Olay dual action Cleanser + Toner - i LOVE that stuff! It's sooo gentle but really cleans! (i have combination skin so part of my face gets dry and part of it gets oily- it is great for combo skin!). I use that to wash my face with and several times a week i exfoliate with St. Ives Apricot Scrub (just the wal-mart brand)
That seems to work well on my skin!
I also love the cleansing wipes (the kind you don't have use water for) when i'm feeling lazy
What do you use for your face??

I use Bonne Belle papaya foaming face wash. The smell is so yummy! I have to remind myself not to eat it lol. Its good for sensitive skin and doesn't dry my face out

Well, obviously, I use Lush products...I use Ocean Salt, which is a scrub..the one that feels like you're washing your face with a Margarita, 2 or 3 times a week. It can be a little abrasive, so I don't use it every day. On the other days, I use Angels on Bare Skin, another one of their facial scrubs (it's more a paste than a scrub, really) and it makes my face as soft as, well, a baby's butt. I also have combo skin, but it tends more towards the dry end. It gets pretty oily once a month, though

Hey - a girl after my own heart!

I've been using Dove as long as I can remember! And considering I'll be 54 in a few months, most people ask me where the heck my wrinkles are (they don't exist)! I credit Dove - been using it since I was a teenager, and I find it's better than any of the expensive face washes and other routines!

I also use a plain bar of Dove soap. I have tried many of the face washes but the Dove works as well or better than any of them that I have tried and it is a lot cheaper.

hehe i knew you'd mention lush!
i'm going to have to try "angels on bare skin" with my next order!!! i forgot to add it to the one i just placed!
It sounds like we have the same skin-type as far as our faces go so i might just have to try AOBS!
hey- you should try the "Need a Margarita" from True Blue Spa- they sell it at bath and body works- it's my FAVORITE scrub ever and it smells JUST like a margarita! I want to drink it every time i use it!!!
If you like Ocean Salt- i bet you'd LOVE this stuff!!! IT moisturizes sooo well i don't have to use lotion afterwards (that's a rarity!) It's the one thing i ALWAYS splurge on every time i go to Bath & Body Works- it's great on my sensitive skin and it's just amazing!!!http://www.bathandbodyworks.com/prod...margarita&sr=1

DHC's olive oil face cleanser, put on dry skin and rinsed off with warm water followed by a basic soap bar (foamed up and rinsed off), next a toner and then a drop of DHC olive oil warmed up by rubbing in my hands and patted on. I love their products, so does my skin.

St. Ive's Apricot Scrub....on occasion. Most of the time it's just plain dove hand soap.

I use Olay Sensitive skin foaming face wash. Gets rid of the oil, but doesn't dry my face out
. I follow it with Eucerin Q 10 face cream. I love that stuff! I missed a spot on my forehead with the sunscreen last year at the beach
and "Ow!" and I put some of it on the spot- it was gone by the next day
! I also read that "they" had been testing coenzyme q 10 on skin cancers, so, I figure I'll stick with it, with my pale skin
.

I use baby shampoo cause you can wash around your eyes with it. That and clearasil.

I'm more worried about cancer than zits. (meaning, that I am very likely to get skin cancer and very pale so I wear lots of sunscreen!)
