What's your skin care routine?

In the morning, if my face is a little puffy, I'll put on an icepack while doing my stomach crunches. I can do a thousand now. After I remove the icepack, I use a deep pore-cleanser lotion. In the shower, I use a water-activated gel cleanser, then a honey-almond body scrub, and on the face an exfoliating gel scrub. Then I apply an herb mint facial masque which I leave on for ten minutes while I prepare the rest of my routine. I always use an after-shave lotion with little or no alcohol because alcohol dries your face out and makes you look older. Then moisturizer, then an anti-aging eye balm, followed by a final moisturizing "protective" lotion.

Sunscreen

Eat broccoli. Broccoli contains an antioxidant known as Glutathione. This stuff makes your skin glow. You can buy it in supplement form or get injections. But in my opinion its better in its natural form. You should be eating broccoli with every meal if your lifting.

Also keep it simple. Wash your face and apply lotion. I use Aveeno with oatmeal. Been applying it for 20 years. Its not watery and not greasy. Im 40 and look between 25 and 30. I can easily date 20s and 30 year olds. Women my age are a problem since theyre old and falling apart.

Skincare addiction is not that bad. Take the time to do the research and figure out what you gotta do for your skin. The resources over there are superb.

Oily Skin? Biore Charcoal. Dry skin? A Cleanser Moisturizer like Cetaphil. Straight up hormonal/Cystic acne? (Not white heads, so deep in the skin, you cannot pop, just big red pumps), Go to a dermatologist and get prescribed Accutane. It straight up cures Acne. Saved my life. For normal white-head Acne, get a Facewash that has Salicylic Acid in it. Use that shit every night before bed, wash pillowcases often to avoid oil building up and sleeping on it, which causes more Acne. Tips from experience. EDIT: if at first any product causes you to break out, that’s normal, over the course of 2 weeks, your face stops trying to fight it and complies, and acne goes away.

I use dead sea scrubs, and morrocon oil.

And I like coconut oil for hair.

Whenever I take a shower I take a hot one, apply soap everywhere, and after that I take a cold shower. Everyday for a few weeks been doing it, and its been helping a lot tbh.

Sunscreen is number one. And it needs to have good UVA protection as well, and many american sunscreens do not. UVA rays are present from early morning to until the sun is completely gone, and go through over cast clouds, etc. I use Biore aqua rich watery essence PA++++. Other than that, the basics are a good oil cleanser at night to remove the sunscreen, then a cleanser and moisturizer in the morning or night. Mine routine is pretty in depth and I just started tretinoin. You really have to do your due diligence researching skincare. That sub is good, so is asianbeauty. Dr Gray on YouTube knows her stuff.

I use a lemon to scrub my face before I enter a shower (cold showers) and to moisturize I use coconut oil.

Skincareaddiction is kinda useless because's it's full of dumb, unscientific chicks

My skin is neither oily nor dry, but I'm getting older, and have a couple wrinkles and some puffiness under my eyes

I take Panax Ginseng and Rose Hip powder in my daily smoothie, as those are both good for your skin (w scientific evidence!)

And I'm getting my buddy's wife to make some custom skin cream for me w Boswellia (Frankincense) and Ginkgo

And I get a facial (w blackhead removal) every few months
