Right now mr morning serum is paulas choice antioxident serum in the dark blue pump. Then at night I use the retinol buchinol serum. I will always use these two things.

 
I started using Cerave hydrating cleanser and like it a lot. I am using paulas choice toner but will probably switch to the Cerave hydrating toner when it's gone because it's half the price and I think you get more. As far as moisturizers I am finishing the IT confidence in a cream for day. Their night cream at night. Once those are gone I will probably switch to olay total effects or so thing cheaper. I think it's the two PC actives that make the biggest difference so will use my money on those and buy less expensive options on everything else.

Dr. Denese and Elemis....oh and Josie Maran 'Argan Milk'....I see a big difference if I don't use the milk first thing!

Exactly what I use!

I am 71 still oily and live in humid climate so don't use a lot of products as they cause more problems than good.  

I use Heimish balm if I wear makeup.

I use Philosophy cleanser and microexfoliatiing cleanser am and pm.

I use Dr. Nassif pads morning and night after cleansing.

PTR Retinol at night.

I have heard all my life oily skin needs a moisterizer but they do not work for me.  I get milia and breakouts no matter how light they are.  I don't have a lot of wrinkles just sagging skin.

@Goldengate8361   I used to used the original ELTAMD sunscreen and then the Restore came out. There's a clear and tinted. The tinted one claims to be a universal tint, but is a bit too dark for me. I hope you like your SPF.

I guess I really mix things up. SkinMedica, Olay, Neutrogena, Dr. Denesse, CeraVe. Works for me.

@Shanus I actually  received the Elta Restore this morning (gotta love Amazon delivery!). I really like it! Its definitely my new favorite sunscreen. I used to use the Elta in a jar because it was a little more moisturizing. The Restore product has it beat! I dont like tinted sunscreen either, so the Restore version is really perfect. Thanks, again, for mentioning it. Its amazing what we all learn from each other in this forum, right?

Tatcha, The Ordinary and Glow Recipe are my hero skincare and cleansing lines.  Missha for an essence and Vit C.  Just started with Belif and  Olehenriksen.  I'm hoping this is a coincidence but I just developed a pimple on my chin and one on my forehead.  This hasn't happened since Bobbie Brown Face Base caused two pimples.  That's a very rich product, so is the Olehenriksen.  My skin may just not be able to tolerate such richly emollient products.  I'm going to continue with the Olehenriksen product and see what develops.  I really want to continue using it but not if it's what's causing me to break out.

@monicakm Dr. Nassif Hydroscreen Serum gave me not pimples, but those hard white bumps.  Also, Oil of Olay products break me out. 

The pro of using one skincare line is that all the products should be formulated to work together whereas when mixing lines products might fight each other.  But, I mix it up too.  

For day I'm currently using M Asam Skin Tightening serum, M Asam Collagenesis eye cream, and Elemis Marine Cream with a drop of Bliss Oil for moisturizer.  I use Gold Bond Neck & Chest on my neck after not being wow'd by Prai or Skinn for that.  I'll switch up depending on prices.  I just received my last auto-delivery on the Elemis and didn't get the latest TSV since I have no interest in 2X product, so we'll see what I end up with when I run out.  May go back to M Asam, but need to catch a sale on that too as he has been upping his prices. 

At night it's Skinn Pep-40 serum and moisturizer  and add a drop the Skinn Manuka oil to the moisturizer. I'm currently on AD for the Skinn serum and moisturzier.  I use the same M Asam eye cream at night. I'm sorta loyal to M Asam eye creams as I did see a reduction of under eye lines after using it. 

I just added The Ordinary Niacinamide before my serums both day and night, and PTR Retinol Fusion nightly except on the tretinoin nights.

Once or twice a week I use Tretinoin micro and I don't use anything after that although I really would like to use an oil or something at least in winter.  

For my body it's just Gold Bond Radiance Renewal Body Lotion.  In winter I add a mixture of oils that I spray on first.  

For cleansers I use Dr. Young's Camellia Oil cleanser at night or Seoul Cleansing Balm if I'm wearing makeup.  In the mornings I use Aveeno Positively Radiant cleanser in the shower with my Olay spin brush.  On non-shower days, I just use hot water and a hot wash cloth that I drape over my face.
