What is your choice for a high-end facial care?

So I am saving some money to invest in a good facial care line. I have a combinational skin and it becomes frustrating when I use something and a part of my face gets too dry or the T-zone gets too oily and starts to break out.





I'm looking for something like Clinique, Murad, Philosophy, Skinique, Lorac...





Thanks!What is your choice for a high-end facial care?
I think if you're young, you should try Mary Kay (just find a rep, got o a ';party'; where they teach you how to do the whole system, and then reorder regularly). When I was a teen, I used it every day, twice a day and I love the way my skin has lasted into my thirties.





These days though, I opt for more convenience, and I use mostly Clinique. I like the ';Comfort on Call'; moisturizer, and the makeup remover best. But I don't like the Clinique cleansers I've tried. For that I use the oily skin gel cleanser from Lancome.





The basics of a facial care system are always the same:





1. A cleanser


2. A toner


3. A moisturizer (sometimes with SPF, sometimes not)


4. A masque





In the morning, you cleanse, tone, and apply a thin layer of moisturizer under makeup.





In the evening, you cleanse, tone, and apply moisturizer (some people have a more nourishing and greasier moisturizer for nighttime than daytime).





Once a week, in the evening, you cleanse, use a masque, then tone. And a couple of hours later, lightly moisturize.





I usually add a spritz or two of antibacterial on my skin a couple of times a week. It seems to really help the texture to stay smooth. I use Bactine. But I also don't tone much because it makes me break out in eczema. Toning would usually kill some germs, among other things, so I protect my skin with what works for me. Hope you find what works for you too!What is your choice for a high-end facial care?

I have been using the Chamomile line from Bee Luscious. After watching Elle rave about it in the video above. I have to say, this is the absolute best skincare line I have ever used. My skin is so happy (I know sounds strange) but that is how I feel.
