Ann - what cleanser do you use with it? Exederm?
Oh and on another thread you mentioned using a really good sunscreen - do you have any recommendations?
| I *love* Exederm so so much! It's actually meant for people w/ eczema, but I love it bc it is completely SLS-free. I found out about it from my favorite skin blogger. It's so wonderful.
Sunscreen is key, just in terms of protecting your skin - even Neutrogena makes good, inexpensive ones that aren't greasy (the one w/ a little retinol in it is nice, if your skin tolerates :)). Another one I use that is great and non-greasy is Paula's Choice. Quote:

How does it work? Are those little bristles on the end? It looks like it could be abrasive for sensitive skin?
I am blessed with both huge pores and sensitive skin, so it's tough for me to find good cleansers.
| It seems the Mia is tough for people who have rosacea or if they have cystic acne - then it can be kind of inflaming, from what I've read. I use the sensitive brush, and my cheeks can be sensitive, but I feel I always had larger pores on my nose - so frustrating :mad:. And that changed a *lot* w/ the Mia. The Mia changed my pores more than retin-a, glycolic, BHAs. |
