I now make my own (I have the recipe on my blog) with green tea (instead of water) and rice bran oil (which is what the gorgeous Japanese women have been using on their skin forever!) and it is just divine. <br /><br />I also use witch hazel and for moisturising I use organic rosehip oil. I also get organic powdered clay to make my own mask (I mix it with water and either witch hazel if my skin is oily/pimply or rosehip oil if it's dry). Then I blend up some organic adsuki beans and mix it with the same amount of rice bran and use that as a scrub. <br /><br />My other secret is these amazing microfibre face cloths I found at my local supermarket. They seem to get everything out of my pores and off my face.<br /><br />My skin has never been better!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5657761815457014400.post-17344972849178816502013-07-26T16:31:32.796-07:002013-07-26T16:31:32.796-07:00I use Ponds as my makeup remover. I think my face...I use Ponds as my makeup remover. I think my face does well with cold cream, but I don't like the strong fragrance and I don't like what it does to my under eye area. Once my jar runs out, I'm planning on trying a mineral oil free version from Etsy or maybe making my own oil based concoction. I also use Dickson's witch hazel and I love the smell. I'm thinking of switching to Thayer's since they have alcohol free versions with extra skin goodies.Shannonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14771383627524471934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5657761815457014400.post-38107844026392691352013-07-25T13:08:23.725-07:002013-07-25T13:08:23.725-07:00I feel your pain about the acne.

I usually go for ecological products and the ones from Estelle & Thild (a swedish brand, but I think they sell online) are wonderful. I'm just in the mood for a change! But maybe they would have an eye cream that works for you?<br /><br />XO,<br /><br />SimonaSimonas streethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04552775950739397309noreply@blogger.com
