I use Clinique Anti-Aging but it's not inexpensive. Since I stay home I don't put on makeup everyday so I just just use the moisterizing lotion and eye serum...love the eye serum! I watch for the bonus deal and usually get a few good items I can try for free. I wear the tinted moisterizer rather than full makeup which has a SPF15.

Wish I could use other less expensive products but my allergies just won't let me. Way too many things break me out so it's double the $$ anyway. If I end up allergic to Clinique or don't like a new product, I can return it for a refund or try something else. I really only buy products about twice a year.

Right now, though, I am looking for a good eye makeup remover. Thought I could find one cheaper than the Clinique one although it is very good (for me). Haven't found anything yet though since I don't want to buy something I can't return.

I buy the best skin products here: http://www.cosmeticscop.com/index.aspx
She has the best products and the best prices. She has written many books that review the skin care products being sold and what works and what doesn't. You can find her review of the product brand before you buy.

I have used Oil of Olay complete for about 15 years now and I love it, it has the sunscreen in it and it works for me. I also only use Gold Bond Ultimate softening cream on my hands, it is wonderful stuff.

I would love to find a cream, needs to be moisturizing, with sunscreen that felt good on the skin.

So my question, what do you like, works for you? What do you hate? How much do you spend on your products? Truthfully, I hate to even spend the $20 for Olay products.

After recently running into several women I went to school with, I'm absolutely convinced their wrinkles are caused by makeup. I have never worn makeup and never made it a point to avoid the sun, and have barely a hint of laugh lines around my eyes. These women I've known forever, however, have been wearing makeup (especially foundation and cover-up) since we were 12 or 13, and they have TONS of crows feet and wrinkled skin around their eyes and mouth. I don't use any product other than a sugar scrub in the shower, and a basic scented lotion on my legs, elbows, and face after the shower.

I have dry skin so use all kinds of lotion! Do use coconut oil after short. For sunscreen lotion I use eucerin with sunscreen. Just like reg lotion.
