Multi problem skin

[SweetBecka]

Here is a list of my concerns with my skin:

Oily
Sensitive (everything make me turn red)
blackheads
Redness
large pores

I often feel like my face is hot and sometimes it feels like my own oils are stinging my face. I really hate it but am at a loss. I don't use much of anything. I wash my face with Dessert Essence Thoroughly Clean face wash but am worried it might be too drying. I moisturize with pure jojobo oil.

Any recommendations?

I do have a sample of the Apricot Cleansing oil and pore refining toner on the way, thanks for changing my order at the last minute Karen

Sensitive skin is the pits isn't it?? Proceed very very cautiously- our stuff is pretty basic, and stripped down, but there's still a chance that there's something your skin won't love.

With the redness- is a sensitivity to glycerin? I really can't use it on my skin- does the same thing- it turns it warm and red. I can use it in rinse off products, but in any sort of leave-on product it just doesn't agree with me.

For right now I'd say try a sample of the Green Tea and Aloe serum...and use that for a little while with your jojoba. If things go well after a month or so you could very cautiously try some of the Super Serum which helps with oil and redness- but it sounds like not much is going to agree with your skin at the moment. Giving it a little bit of a break, and some help with the Green Tea and Aloe for now. Between the Pore Refining Toner, and the Apricot Cleansing Oil your pores should be in good shape- the redness we'll tackle a bit later.

Got my samples today!!! YAY! Mixed it up and seems to match right off. I'm sure I'll adjust it here and there. What I think matches one day seems totally off the next but that is the beauty of this system...I can adjust it myself. I was surprised at what the colors look like on the screen and in person. The dark colors do not seem to look like a natural skin tone at all but once mixed it looks way more natural than what I've been using!!

The apricot cleanser is really nice. Normally when I try something new, especially a cleanser, there is a bit of a burning sensation. Not with this! Same with the toner, it was almost soothing to my skin, and I didn't turn red right away after. The redness does return in a bit of time though s'pose I'll get there in time. You'd think by 39 I'd have this stuff all figured out.

The figment gloss...I'm speechless. It's wonderful!! The makeup is not making me feel like it is sucking any moisture out of my skin causing the oil production to go into overdrive.

OOOHH I'm so happy and hopefully I can be patient and wait until this weekend to place and order and possible get the winter special collection thing.

Thank you.
