I have pretty oily skin like many teens and right now I don’t do much to care for my skin. I just wash with soap and water, but that’s about it. I don’t know much skin care, so can you please help me?
I want to take good care of my skin but not spend too much time or money. Thanks for your help =]

take this from someone who knows alot about skin, you should always cleanse, tone and moisturize young skin especially teen skin-which is why i try to do those important 3 at night before i sleep, you’re supposed to do it night and day but thats so much hassle and thats how your products run out quicker than just applying it at night, it’s better at night because then your skin absorbs it all whilst you sleep, you should try the body shop they do a whole 5-6 peice set for 12 pounds on how to cleanse tone and moisturise using natural products that really work, or you could try tesco or superdrug and find loads of products and skin washes like neutrogena which is one of the best, witch is also supposedly really good for oily skin and the t-zone the scrubs usualyl cost 2-3 pounds and just use a normal moisturizer for your face that you may already have like nivea face cream, and also usually the facial scrubs usually have a toner in them so look out for 1 that has 2 in them if not all 3
remember for great healthy skin cleanse tone and moisturize to get rid of blackheads and open up pores!!
hope this answers ur Q!

I have an idea for a skin care line, and I’ve heard of others doing very well after starting small. So, what steps do I take to actually do this?

Where are the recipes?
Also, what if I want to use specific active ingredients (e.g., alpha hydroxy or salicylic acid)? How do I get those? What government oversight will I be subject to? FDA? FTC?

Should I consult with a dermatologist and/or aesthetician first? If so, how do I find a good one, and what questions do I need to ask them?

Any tips for getting it into stores?
What else do I need to know?

I know I ask a lot, but I’m excited about my idea. I just don’t have the know-how to make it happen. I appreciate any and all constructive advice.

hey i also wanna launch my own skin care line in future but im going to university to do a course in it…im sorry i cant help u with all ur asking but iv got this neat site which tell u about ingredients used in cosmetics…

http://www.cosmeticsciencetechnology.com/ingredients.php

i think u should visit a dermotologist to guide u.ask about ingredients and how to manufacture in your home,what apparatus u need saftey,how much etc…

u could either start up from home or open a small lil shop of ur own if..u could also go and suggest your products to the shop and see how things go…

i really wish i could help u more…

maybe u could do a small course involving cosmetic science…

i really wish u the best of luck

I’m a 22 yr. old female and already starting to notice wrinkles around my eyes. My skin is also dry. Can anyone recommend a skin care product that works, but is also affordable?

Try something from Arbonne! The anti-aging line is great for dry skin!

I have a friend who’s really into snowboarding, and I thought it’d be nice to make her a gift basket of various beauty and skin care items that a snowboarder could use. Any suggestions? I’m on a budget, so I’d prefer inexpensive items; that way I can buy a few things and make a nice basket.

I think you should definitely put some chapstick in the basket its a girls best friend on the slopes, sunscreen, moisturizer, waterproof mascara. Some mini handwarmers & a cute bandanna & maybe even a mini handheld massager. You could also put some warm socks & sunglasses/goggles.

What are the absolute basic skin care products that a guy should use? I’m not really sure of my skin type, but since I used to have bad acne, and occasionally get isolated pimples even now, I’m guessing I have oily skin. Unfortunately, I can’t make sense of all the information I find on the ‘net (exfoliants, cleansers, toners, moisturisers, etc.), so I’m wondering what the absolute minimum treatment should be.

Minimum: a cleanser with salysilic acid in it. Anti bacterial specifically for the face. Also, oil-free moisturizer with sunscreen. If you start now and do this you will have amazing skin. You don’t need to exfolliate–unless you are old w./ dry skin or really bad acne. Shaving is enough exfolliation. Don’t worry about toner, get a good gel cleanser for the face with anit-bacteria properties. Gel cleanser gives your skin a nice, tight feeling.

i want to know how nick j have his skin so perfect and theres no wayt he could have it naturally without any skin care! i need some tips.my skin is normal i have no pimples or anything but he’s skin is so poreless !! i nedd to know

He’ll have been changed on pictures, ‘airbrushed’, to get rid of any imperfections. Just eat healthy, and don’t use any unnecessary things on your face,

I will be importing goods from abroad which are of high quality . They are basically herbal hair and skin care products.

You really should go for the smaller markets that focus on the higher end clients. This is where you may have a shot at making money.

Walmart is NOT the way.

im looking for a good skin care product. i have a hard time finding anything that works well for me, because i have oily skin, so most stuff just dries out my skin and makes it worse. so yeah, any recommendations are helpful. thanks! =D
i’ve already tried proactive and found that it didn’t help any more than stuff you can buy from the drug store for a wayy cheaper price.

Well, I cured my oily skin without any topical products. What actually worked for me was peppermint/spearmint tea. I read about it on acne.org, so I decided to try it. I got some Bigelow’s Mint Medley tea at Meijer for $2.50, and I drink it twice a day. It tastes a little funky, but I got over that quick, because after about a week or two my skin wasn’t oily anymore. And my skin was always drenching with oil and shiny enough to be used as a mirror, because of genetics, but this tea cured it completely which was amazing for me. I really suggest you try it, although any peppermint or spearmint tea should work just as well.

My own personal favorite skin care product, though, is Clean and Clear Persa-Gel 10. I have pretty stubborn moderate acne, but using this along with taking zinc and drinking apple cider vinegar (and spearmint/peppermint tea!) has really helped my skin.

One daughter of coffee shop owner have perfect skin condition on her face still she likes skin care product, what is most likely welcomed for a 22 year old waitress from an acquaintance customer?

What a woman likes to use on her face is such a personal choice – and if she has "perfect skin" then she is most likely not going to chance what she is using – since obviously, what she is using is working well for her.

However, A nice hand cream is always appreciated, especially with winter coming up. Just an idea.

I am interested in having my own skin care /cosmetics line. Is there a book with all the steps help me from the beginning. Truely appreciate any tips, guidance. Thank you, thank you.

There are only four manufactures of cosmetics in the US who sell to many cosmetic lines. Rather than starting your own line I would sell Motives Cosmetics; build up a residual income over $100,000 per year. Then look into setting up your own line.
