Lets Talk About skin Care, Beauty And Health Tips

I'm 14 years old, and my skin is oily in the t-zone. I'm just looking around for skin care products to keep my skin healthy, and natural. I use Clinique makeup and I was wondering if their skin care products are safe for 14 year olds.

Answer
of course they are safe! they have their 3 step system which includes facial soap, Clarifying Lotion, and Moisturizer.

first you use the facial soap which is just a cleanser

then for the clarifying lotion (which is toner) they have a #1, #2, #3
number 1 is for very dry to dry
number 2 is for dry combination
number 3 is for oily
number 4 is for very oily

it sounds like you need number 3(oily)

then you use the moisturizer. they have a lotion or a gel depending on your skin type. since you have oily skin, you would use the gel.

you can purchase these products individually or they come as a set. I love these products! I have tried all of them

and just if you are wondering the whole set costs $50.50

I hope this helps and you will love these products!

With all the different skin care products out, how do you which is best for you?

I have to admit when I go down the skin care aisle at my store I do get a little overwhelmed.

There must be over a 100 different products for your skin. How do you know what to choose for your skin type and age?
I don't have any problems I want to fix, it's more for preventative measures.

I'm lucky enough to have pretty even skin and I've never had an acne problem.

So really I guess what I need is something to maintain my skin as it is now.

Answer
Figure out the exact problem you need to fix. Acne? Oily skin? Dry skin? Once you've got that figured out, you're already half way there.

As for age, I don't really think age matters. If you're 50 but you have adult acne, you can use Clean and Clear, even if it does seem targeted towards teens. Or if you're only 20 but you've got some premature skin aging going on, it's fine to use an Olay anti-wrinkle treatment. Age doesn't matter, if it solves your skin issues, it is good.

Once you know what you need to fix with your skin, move slowly through the aisles. Look on the labels to see what each product does. You'll be able to find products that will work for your skin problems. Then, once you've gone down the whole aisle (devote some time towards this!) write down all of the products that seemed as though they fit your needs. Then once you get home, look up reviews for them on makeupalley.com. Then you'll be able to figure out which work best, and you can go back to the store and buy them.

If your skin is nice already because of whatever you're doing now, keep doing it. I know personally that taking good skin and using products that you've never needed before can really take a toll on your skin and make it bad.
