I am 22 years old and have normal skin. I get a few zits every once in awhile but do not get bad breakouts often. My question is what are the best skin care products to be using? My family has great skin, so do I still need to be using expensive products? If so what type should I be using? If I don't need expensive products what are some good over the counter products? I need information about cleansers, moisturizers, and anything else I should use. Thanks!

For your age and skin type I would recommend Arbonne Intelligence 5 Step system for face. It is a natural, botanically based, swiss-formulated skin care system. It is ideal for young skin (from about age 16-36). The moisturizer is self-adjusting, so that you get the amount your skin needs, without being over-moisturized. The eye cream is FANTASTIC! The cleanser and pH balancing Toner are a must. And there is also a facial scrub to use twice a week for that 'deep cleaning and exfoliating'. These Arbonne products contain no mineral oil, no petroleum products, no animal or animal by-products and no chemical fragrances.
Most over the counter products actually have ingredients in them that will ultimately harm your skin. One ingredient, mineral oil, is in 98% of all cosmetics and moisturizers, but has been found to be the second leading cause of premature aging of the skin. The molecules in mineral oil are too large to penetrate the skin (which is what the manufacturers had wanted it to do to moisturize), so they sit on top of your skin like a film of plastic wrap...this 'seals' the pores, so that your skin cannot breathe, and toxins cannot be released.
You are very lucky to have been blessed with great skin, so take care of it and don't ruin it by using damaging products. You may have to pay a little bit more, but isn't your skin and your health worth it? Feel free to email me if you have any other questions.

You should read Laura Jefferson’s book "Skin Whitening At Home" ( I saw it's also available in electronic format +video: http://www.skinwhiteningathome.com ). After 8 weeks I managed to get my skin a few tones whiter and I also got rid of freckles.

The method she teaches in her book is natural, inexpensive, and is readily available in most homes. You could even find some ingredients in your own backyard. The most wonderful thing about the method she shares in her book is that it will help you whiten or lighten your skin pigmentations, freckles, age spots, acne marks, dark underarms, melasma, or your overall skin color easily and naturally without breaking your bank or producing dangerous side effects. Good Luck!

Personally, I use Nuetrogena VisiblyEven cleanser and then I use Loreal Hydrafresh toner. The result has been a clear, brighter, even, skin tone :) Each one cost about $5 to $6 at Walmart.

follow a routine such as: morning: cleanse moisturise (with spf15 or above moisturiser) evening: remove makeup with a baby wipe (won't irritate) treat problems moisturise remember to look for moisturisers that are 'non comedogenic' or 'non acnegenic' as these ones won't block pores, causing skin problems. i'd recommend the Neutrogena Ultimate Moisture moisturisers. there is a day one with spf15 and a night one. both are non comedogenic. also, the active soy in them can help with the scars. for a cleanser, id try something from Avene, which is a great brand for sensitive skin, or Simple if you would prefer something cheaper. Vichy is a very effective brand as well. for a home remedy, after removing makeup with a baby wipe in the evening, apply honey for 20 minutes. it is moisturising and calming, and can help get rid of any blemishes or blemish scars. remember to eat well, exercise and drink lots of water as what you put in shows on the outside!!

Many people strive to attain lighter, brighter, healthier-looking skin. Learning to properly care for your skin on a day-to-day basis will help your skin stay light and tight, while more substantial and scientifically-proven lightening products are also widely available. In my opinion this is the best method https://tr.im/cTd7d

To get rid of acne/pimples, use an acne treatment with benzyl peroxide. To prevent acne from coming back, drink plenty of water every day. Use a daily face wash with salicylic acid in it to unclog dirt and oil from pores, which cause pimples. Make sure to moisturize every day too, because acne medicine will otherwise dry your face out. If your face thinks that it is being dried out, it will produce even more oil, causing acne. Hope I helped.

I use Mary Kay products. They have them based on your type of skin. So I use the cleansing creme, the moisture rich mask and the moisturizer. It's pretty reasonable and a bottle lasts you for a while. It's helped me for years.
