Are these products okay for me?
Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash
Neutrogena Pore Refining Toner
Neutrogena Healthy Skin Face Lotion for Sensitive Skin
My face is oily but not too much, and having occasional pimples, but starting to have blackheads.. I'm a 15 year old guy, don't you think that these products are strong or just fine for my age?
About the cleanse, tone, and moisturize.. Do I need to do it morning and at night? And if yes, can I skip some steps, for example, I'll do CTM for morning, and for night I'll just do CT? Or anything..I'm new to these things, and I hope you could help me.. I have chosen Neutrogena because I heard that It's a good product, and is just mild..
If you'll suggest any other cleanser, toner, or moisturizer, please just suggest Neutrogena products, because I've seen people who have used Neutrogena products ended up with a smooth and clear face.. ^_^
Hmm, thank you for those who'll be helping me!..
Questions about skin care.. Help Please..?
What you've picked out sounds good to me =)
Do all three steps, morning and night.
Another thing you may want to try if you're getting a few pimples is some kind of acne treatment from Neutrogena, also. Use it at night after you cleanse and tone, instead of the moisturizer. Good luck =)
Questions about skin care.. Help Please..?
Hey man, the only way to find out if these products are to strong for you is by trying them. I've found that Neutrogena Acne wash can be a bit strong. If you use it be careful. If it burns or feels uncomfortable at all toss it. If you have oily skin you don't need to moisturize as often but if you do make sure it's a oil-free moisturizer.

Reply:I wash my face in the morning with soap and water. And use a prescription called duac cream. It works great.
You may want to consider using a shower body wash also.
Just make sure your skin does not get to dry. This can actually make you acne worse.
Reply:Not familiar with these exact products, but you need to be using a gentle, foaming, rinse-off cleanser that is soap free and pH balanced or pH neutral - this avoids upsetting the natural balance of your skin, which can create more problems than you had to begin with. I would avoid anti-bacterial face washes as these can be too harsh.
Then I would just pat my skin dry and apply a simple but good quality oil-free moisturiser. An oil-free moisturiser shouldn't clog your pores, and can be re-applied throughout the day (wash your hands first) if skin gets dry.
I would absolutely avoid using a toner as these are completely unnecessary if you are using a soap free, rinse-off cleanser.
If you get spots, ask your pharmacist for Panoxyl 2.5 gel, which is an effective but mild spot-fighting gel. Wash your face, pat dry, then apply a very thin layer of the gel all over the area that the spots appear (not just a blob on the spot). Wait 15 minutes until the gel dries, then apply oil-free moisturiser on top if necessary. Only use the gel once a day before bed, then wash off in the morning. Your spots should clear up in a few days.
This regime was recommended to me by a doctor and has not failed since. All the fancy stuff just confuses your skin. The only other thing I would recommend as an addition to your routine would be a gentle, rinse-off facial scrub used twice a week after cleansing, before applying moisturiser. This will get rid of dead cells, unblock pores and so make your skin clearer and brighter.
Products I like are:
Simple Refreshing Facial Wash Gel, or Cetaphil, or Sebamed
Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturizing Gel
Panoxyl 2.5% Gel
Simple Smoothing Cleansing Scrub
