Your best skincare regimen. How to figure it out.

Thank you for writing.  I love the inventiveness of marketers but………can I just say this, and I know it will ring true to all of you.  THERE IS NO CREAM, SERUM OR MIST that penetrates deep enough, or in enough quantity to match the results of well done injectables, lasers or some sound wave based devices.

To find the best skincare regimen for you either:

• Find a great dermatologist and clinic who can help you;
• See regularly an experienced aesthetician who can help you ;
• Experiment yourself in a way that makes sense.

If you want to experiment yourself, here’s how:

Get a notebook or a fun journal you can keep notes in.  First establish your basics.  What do you know is working well for you?  Write it down.  Start with an AM and a PM regimen. Make notes on every product you try, so you can remember later ones that you loved, and also the ones you rejected.

Choose your cleanser, moisturizer and sunscreen first.   When you have those three products that are working well for you, with no irritation, then you can start to build on it.  Add only ONE PRODUCT AT A TIME A WEEK APART.   So next add an antioxidant under your sunscreen in the morning.   Then try to find a vitamin A cousin (retinol or tretinoin) that you can tolerate at night.  When all that’s good, you can keep adding slowly. Serums go under lotions or creams.  Don’t forget that your eye area, neck, chest and hands are usually more sensitive than the face.  You may need different products for those areas.

Below is a format that helps me.
