I have too many products and tempted to just go with the TSV Argan oil.

I am soon to be 64 and concerned with lines, sagging but also the ingredients in some of the many products I have. Most recently using PTR face wash, retinol serum and cream and just ok for being so expensive. I won't give up the face wash.

 

I am using Chia Seed oil for my daytime moisturizer and non greasy and not toxic but I alreadly pay $30 for a 2 ounce bottle.

 

I am trying to be economical and my thought is to order the TSV which seems to cover all areas and also not toxic to my skin and body.

 

Thoughts on scaling down and having too many products on hand appreciated.

One warning about the supersize of the argan oil, it can go rancid before you use it all.

 

I had this happen twice to me, even when I used it on face, neck and chest twice a day.

 

I thought the first time it happened it was just a 'bad' batch and tried it again, but the same thing happened.

 

You may want to check out rosehip oil, it's economical, absorbs better than argan and I'm loving the results!

JM products are good but if you are trying to be “economical” their are other options that are non toxic 

 

edited to add - One example is Trader Joe’s 100% organic argan oil. 1.7 Oz $6.99

I have scaled back on beauty products and doing just fine without spending $$$ monthly.

 

If all this stuff on the market worked for all of us, we’d all be slim and trim with flawless skin.

@Theresa1121  I agree with @KingstonsMom.  I don't buy supersize of anything.  Beauty products expires sometime, and they expire even faster once opened.  

 

I have tried Argan Oil and Rosehip Oil. And I agree with @KingstonsMom that Rosehip oil absorbs better and it does not feel as greasy as Argon oil. Actually Argan Oil makes me break up on my face, so I only use it on my body or my hair.

 

If you are concerned about budget, check out YouTuber Gothamista's video Amazing Skincare $10 and under Part I and Part II.  She is very knowledgeable about ingredience in skincare.

I've always believed in investing in a reliable facial cleanser.  To me, that's the foundation of any beauty routine.  The first step is getting that right.

Supersize bottles of oil can be poured off into smaller dropper bottles. That way you can store the main one in the fridge. Just make sure to buy the amber glass dropper bottles to ensure your oil remains protected from light.

Reminder: Rosehip oil goes rancid quickly and must be refrigerated.

OMgosh---I have so much skincare that I have been trying to use up before I buy anymore. But I agree with not  buyng the super size of anything as I have had to throw out stuff that went bad cuzz I couldn't use it up---the oils are a prime example. I  have started adding drops of the oils, like argan, rosehip seed, camomile and others to my body creams. That works really well for arms and legs and chest.
