Morning: Wipe over with a Boots No 7 makeup remover wipe, followed by Liz Earle skin tonic and Monu collagen cream as a moisturiser (which smells like hot cross buns!)

Evening: wash with plain aqueous cream, wiped off with a flannel or muslin to exfoliate. Caudalie serum afterwards and Monu collagen cream again.

Once a week I use Liz Earle hot cloth cleanser and Waitrose baby bottom butter - only at night though as its quite greasy.

I have weird skin. Quite greasy on forehead and chin but dry on cheeks and I also get cycle related spots. This routine helps (for now!) to keep it all under control :)

I just use water, I have good skin. I think I just use water because I have good skin, not the other way round. I don't wear make up.

I use a moisturiser made by Aveeno, which was recommended to me years ago at an expensive private consultation with a dermatologist who wasn't able to prescribe anything because the problem, whatever it was, wasn't in evidence the day I saw him. Whatever it was, I don't think it came back, and I swear by Aveeno.

I have never found one of those wipes that doesn't irritate my face

Im 23 and getting a few noticeable lines in my huge forehead. Not ready for Botox just yet, so can anyone recommend a moisturiser that will prevent/get rid of them?

Cleanse with Emma Hardie balm, remove with warm flannel; then Avene sensitive skin serum or EH serum, if I'm feeling flush; then La Roche Posay Melt-in SPF 30 sunscreen in summer or Avene Hydrance Rich SPF20 in winter. Night time, I use Emma Hardie night cream, or Liz Earle Superskin serum with some Skin Repair on the dry bits.

A couple of times a week I Clarisonic my face, and put a moisturising mask on while I'm in the bath. I used to have monthly Guinot Hydradermie facials, but to be honest, I could never really see any difference...

Love these threads :-)

Morning: Rarely wash my face in the morning, don't even bother with a splash of water.
Apply la Roche Posay spf 50 fluid.
Clarins spf 30 eye cream if sunny or going to be outside a lot. Otherwise Clinique repairwear eye cream. Love the former, not sure if I'd recommend the latter but it's okay.

Evening: Boots No.7 hot cloth cleanser, more often than not removed with hot flannel.
Liz Earle Superskin. V. good and seems to provide 24 hour moisture. Doesn't irritate my v. sensitive skin.
Apply Estee Lauder Prefectionist to wrinkle-prone areas. Have been using this for years, buy in airports and like to delude myself that it's making a difference. Am 37 with rosacea-prone skin.

C. once a week, use Clinique Seven Day scrub cream.
Every day: take 2 fish oil capsules.
