Celebrity Skin: Part Deux

Here's an update and then the second part of the "Get Amazingly Awesome Skin by the Engagement Shoot" cleansing ritual.

As you read previously here, I have been using the Clarisonic Brush. It's making me break out (eek!) but Claire the Esthetician said that is to be expected for several weeks as it is "bringing all the gunk to the surface." OK, but gross. I'm gonna hang in there and hope it's true. I'm noticing smoother skin from all the exfoliation, but big, bad breakouts. So, maybe it's kind of working? Stay tuned...

Here are ALL of the products I am resting my faith in. Please feel free to feel sorry for me and my poor, sad skin.

Cleansing:

Moisturizer:

La Roche Posay Hydraphase Moisturizer. Good for warm weather - light but still moisturizing.

Spot Treatment:
That's right, I said spot treatment like I'm British...or like I'm treating a stain.

Retin-A, SkinCeuticals Phloretin - CF (I have no idea but what this does, but it has antioxidants, was super expensive, but I got it for free), and Obagi sunscreen.

Notice what's missing? An eye cream! I just cannot deal with another product right now! Anyone else have such a ridiculous skin product arsenal of products they actually use ever day?
