I just got some moisturizer with Retinol to firm my skin up a bit. Seems to be working.

Retinol can work wonders. Just two things: you probably don’t need it before turning 30, and you should stay out of the sun or wear good sunscreen if you can’t, when you have recently used it. I only apply it once a week in the evening.
- Some organic face soap
- some organic shaving soap (lasts forever, mix with water or use these fancy brushes)
- organic basic cream (afterwards)
- sometimes peeling containing clay
I usually recommend the cerave / cetaphil stuff, especially if your skin is harder to take care of.
Otherwise I refer to the CDA list to double check if it's recommended. It covers the following
- Fragrance-free or unscented
- Gentle on skin to avoid skin irritation
- Do not contain common allergens
- Do not clog pores
Cerave's great for eczema!
