Mine is pretty poor and wanting to improve it, I wash my face with some dove soap and apply oil of ulay face cream (uv protection). Once a month I may use a face mask. No exfoliating, no toning, no special cream for the eyes.

Stop using soap and anything that foams.

Google Caroline hirons - skin care woman with some cheat sheets on her website about good routines.

In the morning I cleanse with Avene on dry skin. Wash off with flannel. Tone with Ren toner. All About Eyes or Kiehls creamy eye cream. Serum - a vit C one. V expensive, can never remember the name. Then hydralon, then moisturiser (currently Estée Lauder daywear).

In the evening I use a cleanser balm, tone and moisturise. Face mask every other day. Use a Sanctuary clay one, Ren one and Nuxe creme.

I use a Dermalogica daily microfoliant in the mornings with usually dermalogica moisturiser. I've run out at the moment though, and so i'm using a Simple moisturiser. When buying cheap brands, my rule of thumb is go for 'gentle' type products.

At night, i use Philosophy Purity 3 in 1 cleanser, toner and make up remover. I love this product. Was about £25 to buy but have had it over a year. Use a 5p size bit every night and only just running out now. Follow this with Simple eye make up remover if i need it and Olay regenerist night cream. Would like to get some Keihls eye cream too.

Once or twice a week I have a bath amd use St Ives face scrub followed by Dermalogica multivitamin thermafoliant face mask. For body i have some soap and glory scrubs and body lotions/butters too. I really like the nivea in shower moisturiser too- especially in summer as you can moisturise all over without that horrible sticky feeling.

Hope that helps!

I use Neutrogena 2 in 1 mask and wash, twice a week as a mask (contains white clay), twice a week combined with a scrub, and otherwise morning and evening as a wash with hot cloth.

In the morning I use Body Shop vitamin C moisturiser or serum and Ducray Ictyane on top. In the evening I use Avene Cicalfate ( anti bacterial with zinc), sometimes Ictyane if needed.

I suffered with hormonal acne a year ago for the first time in about 20 years and this routine seems to be keeping it at bay. Keep thinking I need a good under eye cream tho.

I clean my make up off each evening with pure coconut oil and hot water and a muslin cloth, and moisturise with boots basic moisturiser. In the morning I just use water and then moisturise. My skin is gorgeous. I'm nearly 44 and look younger. :)

I cleanse with Liz Earle (the product not her).
I exfoliate with Liz Earle.
Moisturise with Elemis.
