Working in the beauty industry, I’m trying new products every week. Only a select few become staples in my skin care regimen. These are the products I simply cannot live without.

Honorable mention goes to True Anti-Aging Complex "I" Lift Eye Contour Serum, YonKa Gommage 305 Soft Clarifying Gel Peel, Yonka Lait Nettoyant Non-Comedogenic Cleansing Milk and Eye Makeup Remover, and the discontinued DDF AloeCort.

I've always had mixed feelings about Proactiv - it keeps my skin clear for the most part (other than blackheads - it takes care of the nasty red ones though) but makes everything else about my skin look terrible! it just looks unhealthy, but clear when using it. I've been using Boscia's clear complexion cleanser, toner and treatment, and it seems to be working. I also have to be careful with what moisturizers I use - I used Boscia's night moisture and Vital daily moisture for a month, because I had dryish skin, but it seemed to make my skin greasy, and I was still getting small breakouts. Their oil free lotion also isn't enough moisture for me, so I'm back to Clinique's Dramatically Different Moisturizing Gel. I can't tell you how many times I've used it, switched to something else, only to go back to it! Guess that should tell me something.

I haven't really used the Phyto 58, but I'll try it tonight. Thanks for the tip, xmargarida. My boyfriend and I both work in spas, so there is no shortage of skin care products in our apartment. He's actually my YonKa hookup, haha. He goes to all the training, then I get it second hand from him. The job presents lots of opportunities to try new products. ISpa was like Christmas. I still haven't made it through the two backpacks full of samples, but I promise to share any good finds when I do.

I love yonka! I actually use Yonka at my spa and attend regular training seminars with Yonka. Its amazing how many uses certain creams have. When treating my acne i used cream 15 and cream pg. But my absolute favourite is Phyto 58. It regenerates the skin tightens pores and firms but also very good for post acne scars! definitely worth a try

YonKa all the way... super gentle and highly effective. I especially love the spray-on lotion.

I highly recommend YonKa. If you can, grab some samples from a retailer near you. It's a great way to get to know the line and see which products work for you and which products you can live without. And, I admit, the hair is a wig. I wear it every occasion that calls for flowing cotton candy hair (which can be surprisingly often, if you really want it to).

Have not tried Yonka. Proactive dried my face out too much so I to stop using it. Now I use philosophy's stuff for acne and it's working pretty good. Is your hair really that color or is it a wig? :)
