It's been a couple of years since the last discussion on here. I'm trying to get more serious about it since I'm getting older, but there's a lot of information out there.

What's everyone using?

    serious answer

    Before bed I use an exfoliating silicon pad under lukewarm water with a gentle cleanser, and shave about once a week with jojoba oil. After gently toweling off I apply a pea-sized drop of 2.5% benzoyl peroxide cream, and brush my teeth while I wait for that to dry. Once dry to the touch I slug on serum, then a light moisturizer with hyaluronic acid, then a slightly heavier one with niacinimide and jojoba oil (love that stuff), and then I cap all of that off with a layer of cheap-ass petroleum jelly. Hence, slugging.

    In the morning I just rinse off all the goop from last night, then apply makeup w/SPF. Seems to work pretty well!

    But actually I use Axe 7-in-1: bodywash, shaving creme, shampoo, conditioner, moisturizer, toothpaste, and protein shake.
