Just wanted to share, as quite out of the blue, unexpectedly and indeed as chance would have it, my skin seems to really rather good - here's what I now do, in case it's of any use to anyone else! My skin is dry-ish but prone to an oily t-zone. So I boss it thus:
Evening: La Roche-Posay Solution Micellaire to clean off make-up - astonishing what comes off onto cotton wool pads, despite being quite restrained with make up. Then, Dermalogica microfoliant OR Elemis Tri-Enzyme facial wash. Then finish with Clarins Blue Orchid face oil (ruinously expensive)
Morning: Dermalogica or Elemis again as evening, No 7 Lift & Luminate moisturiser (the day version).
That's it! My skin is all nice! I have spent literally gazillions of pounds on all kinds of products from splashy to slutty and never have I so peachy looked.
Cheers!
