In over 50 years wearing cosmetics and skincare I have not found a holy grail.
The only three products I rebuy are
PTR retinol for night time
Philosophy micro exfoliating cleanser
Dr. Nassif detox face pads
Oily skin when young now combo.

I have used Clinique's skin care for over 40 years. I'm 68 and have oily skin and it works for me. Yes I know they're not cruelty free but I will continue use until I'm gone.

I agree that Pond's Cold Cream is the best way to dissolve makeup.( I am so tired of the "clean beauty" thing.....the really harmful stuff isn't in anything, and mineral oil is not a bad thing. It's refined and isn't harmful, moisturizes well and does the job on makeup removing. There is even a food-grade mineral oil which chefs use on their wooden cutting boards to keep them from cracking, and if you've eaten in a restaurant, you've eaten off a mineral-oil-treated cutting board. Also, petrolatum (Vaseline) is highly refined and not harmful. The man who created and first marketed it, many years ago, used to eat a spoonful every day to prove it was safe, and did so til he died at 96. So don't pay too much attention to the "clean beauty" blather. It's a manipulative marketing ploy. The FDA knows what's harmful, and mineral oil and petrolatum are not banned by them.)
Also on my Grail list: Plexaderm and PTR Firm X Instant Eye. Both work on my (not very bad) undereye bags, like magic. I have never had any problems with either. I think that people who don't have success are using something moisturizing to wash their face....like Philosophy, Korres, Dove, Beekman etc. Anything that promises to moisturize/hydrate your skin will leave behind a film so that the product can't stick to the skin and pull it taut. Even if it does, it won't last. I wash my face with Ivory, which gets it thoroughly clean and the products do their job all day until I wash them off. I do need a little concealer on top. It must be oil-free, and a liquid is too watery. I gently tap--not rub or smooth on--the tiniest bit of IT Oil Free Matte CC, and it works beautifully. So that's another Grail for me.
