La Vanilla makes a really good deodorant.

Acne.org makes very good basic skincare for problematic skin. Hope this helps.

Tom's of Maine alum. free deodorant in Tea Tree-very refreshing.

 

Mario Badescu makes a great AHA Body Wash and body lotions that are fairly reasonable in price point.

Glycolic acid is a type of AHA.  I use Paula's Choice BHA and AHA's.   Alpha Skin Care is another good brand of AHA's.  Google Beautypedia and you will see recommendations of skin care/make up products.

@butterfly123  My suggestion for body wash is Skikai oatmeal, non soap wash which will not dry your skin.  I am very pleased with No 7 skincare products and Acure.  Both are reasonably priced and available at Target.   Cat Happy

Cerave...

 

Edited to add...

 

Cerave is recommended by my dermatologist...

 

However, after reading further posts...if you have a skin disease, 

I would only follow the recommendations of your dermatologist.   Good luck!

If you mean acne I use Andrew Lessman Ultimate Women's Wellness. I started with his Women's Wellness but switched since they have been the same price. 

I did not have acne as a teenager but had problems with menopause. Andrew's product was the only thing that helped me.

I use Beekman soap which has goat milk so it's suppose to keep your skin ph balanced. I use it with the Salux cloth to exfoliate.

I use Isomers Skincare Daily Exfoliating Serum. It says to use daily but I only use once per week. I don't think my skin could take more than twice per week. It's an AHA + BHA. It has Glycolic & Salicylic acid in it.

I like Schmidt's Aluminum Free Deodorant in Rose Vanilla.

Dove just came out with an aluminum free deodorant but have not tried it.

Re: Suggestions Please. Skincare Items

I second the Alpha Skin Care products for glycolic (AHA) treatments...highly rated, tried and true.

 

Alba Botanica shower gels are very gentle and they offer many kinds, depending on your needs.
