I have normal - oily skin, and acneprone. Proactive worked for a few months and than stopped for some reason. Anyways I wanted to just try washing my face with water and a facecloth, twice a day,i also wear makeup... than I would exfoilate once a week or somthing, ofcourse finishing off with a moisturizer. So my questions would be ...How would that be for a plan? what kind of soap to use if i have to wash with soap, and if this isnt a good facial routine what would you suggest?
I wash once a day with water and a washcloth (usually morning), then wash the other time when taking makeup off with cleanser (usually night). For cleanser I recommend Aveeno cleansers, they have many to choose from but so far I think I like the Ultra-calming foaming cleanser. I was trying the moisturizing bar before and loved the way my skin felt AS I washed with it, but after it dried my face felt tight. Im going to try their balancing bar because its the same except sans vegetable oil, because the bar didnt seem better as far as breaking out than the u/c foaming cleanser, and thought maybe because of the veg oil (I wanted the moist. bar to be better because it has oatmeal and is cheaper). But other things I have notice that I started doing that are making my skin better is the aspirin scrub before I wash the cleanser off and then toning with a cotton pad after I get it wet with water and a little apple cider vinegar. Do the aspirin scrub only twice or 3x a week because it can be drying, and only start out with the acv once a day. Hope this will be helpful...
Would it be okay to wash my face this way?
