I don't know what my skin would look like without Retin A and Vitamin C @CherryHugs .   I've never heard of not doing skin care.

Dove beauty bar soap and Oil of Olay facial wash.  Then my Great Grandmother down to Grandmother then Mother's favorite moisturizer Oil of Olay. that is it.  At 62 not one crows feet yet.  Genetics plays a big part.

@beckyb1012  I love Olay products- I use the moisturizer, night cream, hand cream and face wash. Olay products are affordable, effective and fancy! 🤗

Can't use Oil of Olay products.  My mother did, but I break out every time I've tried.  I do use Olay body wash though. My mother looked her age.  

I've seen news segments about how young girls are getting caught up in excess skincare and using products that are not designed for their skin and how that is messing up their skin, but nothing about mature women needing to not use skincare.  I'm somewhere in the middle.  I don't do minimal skincare, but I also don't do what I consider to be a lot.

@CherryHugs - Sorry, but I think that's ridiculous!

I just saw my dermatologist for my annual body check last week. She has always said I don't need a complicated routine. 

I use an oil-based cleanser to remove my makeup at night. I sleep with a clean face. In the morning I use a cleanser, alternated with a mild rice polish scrub (Tatcha). I put on my sunscreen and let it dry, then use a primer and my makeup for the day.

@beach-mom  I don't have many steps as far as face wash products either. I do have a normal skin type & so I am told by people & my derm. that I have beautiful skin at my age of 68. 

I will spend the money on  a few Tatcha skincare products. I have the Camilla Oil, like you, I love the Tatcha Rice Wash, & I only exfoliate once a wk. with Tatcha gentle face Polish. Tatcha is worth the cost because you need very little product & it lasts a long time.

Thank you all sooo much for your thoughts and replies.  I think too that some youtubes are not good information!

Plus we need to do what is right for our skin. 

I dont think my skin would do well without skincare products!!  Doesnt make sense to not use skincare!

Not overdoing and using too many tho is good advice.

I saw on youtube last week many of the beauty channels saying you do not need skincare!

Saying it is ruining the skin. That you dont need a cleanser or so many products.

I was wondering how do you remove makeup if you dont use a cleanser? Plus my skin would be super dry without skincare. 

Yikes lol.

There is a washcloth that is $20.00 on Amazon that removes makeup without a cleanser. One side gently exfoliates.
