I really need a new skincare routine. Beyond basic face wash and moisturizer, I don't use much. I seriously wish that all those nice serums/creams/masks/eye stuff wasn't so gosh darn expensive. I'd pay for it if I knew what worked, but gah, looking at it all is overwhelming!

[QUOTE]Oh, and my new night routine involves oil cleansing. We need to buy more washrags.

I've been wanting to try that but I hear that your complexion gets worse before it gets better and I didn't want that for next weekend.

My bedtime routine is complicated because I'm a freakazoid. I take my allergy meds, wash my face, take my asthma meds, brush my teeth, put on my moisturizer, use mouthwash, work on my puzzle, sit in my massage chair and read, put on chapstick, get in bed, check the next days weather, and try to fall asleep. Always in that order. I'm special

Morning: wake up, use bathroom, brush teeth, put on shorts and sweatshirt. Go down to check email and a handful of websites for about 20 minutes, then drink some juice, walk dog, have breakfast while still on computer, wash dishes, shower, dress, head off to work. I feel embarrassed to admit that I put on my makeup at stop lights on my way to work.

Evening: no set routine. Mostly I come home from work, walk the dog, make dinner plans, hang out with H, walk the dog again, and get ready for bed.

<div>Funny. My morning routine involves lighting candles on my Eagles shrine.</div>

Eagles, re: oil cleaning, I've finally started using the 24 pack of dishrags that we got in a wedding present. How's that working out for you btw?

I have nothing remarkable to add to the routine discussion. I am one lazy hag.

JessAndTrav · July 2012

Morning: (when I'm working)

Wake up after the alarm has gone off for the 1149083rd time.

Pee

Wash hands/Brush teeth

Get dressed

Do hair and makeup.

Run out the door, usually running late.

I admit, I seldom remember to wash my face.

Evening:

Turn off lights, tv in living room, etc.

Pee

Shower, blow dry hair (if I haven't already. Sometimes I do this earlier in the evening)

Brush teeth

Get a glass of water & take vitamins

Pee one more time, in hope that I won't have to go again later.

Turn on bedroom tv & dvd player, set sleep timer & alarm

Go to sleep

I'm really exciting. You don't have to tell me how jealous you are.

wadingmoose · July 2012

Morning: kick cat off my feet, stumble to bathroom, pee, dry hair, brush teeth, stumble to closet, hope whatever I grabbed in the dark actually matches, stare at clock and try to decide if I can eat a bowl of cereal in 2 minutes, go to work.

Night: Brush teeth, get naked, go to bed.

I think I need a routine.

<div>I've heard good things about Paula's Choice (only available from their site) and they have some kind of money-back guarantee. Also, you can get a sample of most of their stuff before you get the big version. I've started using their tinted moisturizer (ordered 3 samples at 60 cents each to pick the color), and I want to get into their cleansers, but haven't had time to figure out which to try.</div>

Morning:
-- 1st alarm goes off at 6:45, and then every five minutes thereafter. Hit snooze 4 times and force myself to get out of bed at 7:00.
-- Pee
-- Shower
-- Blow dry hair
-- Brush teeth
-- Make coffee in the french press
-- Progressively worsen my hair's already brittle condition with the straightener
-- Agonize over what I want to wear today
-- Check the weather before I pick out my outfit
-- Finalize my outfit decision 5 minutes later
-- Call myself a dumbass for not ever remembering to pick out an outfit the night before while simultaneously wishing that I had the strength to wake up just 10 minutes earlier so I don't feel so rushed picking out my clothes. Desire to go shopping begins here as well.
-- However, if/when I do have extra time in the morning, I'll put on makeup
-- Leave

Evening:
-- Eat the food FI cooks me every night

-- Watch TV
-- Start to get cranky after 9:30
-- PTFO on the couch
-- Wake up to pee, brush teeth
-- Go to bed.

ETA~~

Things that are utterly absent from my routine:

-- Exercise of any kind in general
-- Remembering to take pills like vitamins and BC
-- Breakfast
