What are some facewashes that I can use to get really good skin? My skin's also pretty sensitive?

I%26#039;m trying to get REALLY good skin, and I know I can just read the labels but obviously they all will say good things about their brand. What do you guys recomend? And about how much would they cost?


thank you!!|||Nivea.. is great.. its not expensive, you can buy from Supermarkets in the Toiletries section or the Chemist. it does also depend on your age, younger skin doesnt need as much moisturiser and toners. where as older women need more...|||Try this:








Clear Skin Remedy





Ingredients:





Besan which is also known as (Gram Flour)


Fresh lemon juice


Yogurt


Turmeric powder (optional)





Method:





Add 1-2 table spoons of gram flour in a small bowl or plate, then add 1-2 teaspoons of dairy yogurt, give it a mix until it creates a good thick paste, when paste is made add 2 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice, also add just a pinch of turmeric powder mix all together and apply on whole face. Leave to work and dry for 15-20 minutes, after then wash of smoothly by tapping some water on face and rubbing in a circular motion from there completely wash the face. Once washed tap dry with towel.








A raw potato is cheap and brilliant skin treatment. The vitamin C makes your skin glow, and alkaline in the potato kills the bacteria on your face. The potato also has an exfoliating effect helping you to get rid of dead skin cells. Papaya fruit produces similar effect; you should also use it raw. (Make sure the potato isn%26#039;t genetically modified!)








Good skin comes from the inside, so an adjustment to your diet will help give you a glow, too:

Many beauty products on the market have harmful chemicals in them (CETAPHIL is FULL of them); do your favorite beauty products contain any of these things?:





* Mineral Oil, Paraffin %26amp; Petrolatum – Petroleum products coat the skin like plastic, clogging pores and creating a build-up of toxins, which in turn accumulate and can lead to dermatological issues, like slowing cellular development, which can cause you to show earlier signs of aging. Suspected cause of cancer %26amp; Disruptive of hormonal activity.





* PARABENS – Such as methyl- propyl- butyl- %26amp; ethyl- parabens: Widely used as preservatives in the cosmetic industry (including moisturizers). An estimated 13,200 cosmetic and skin care products contain parabens. Studies implicate their connection with cancer. They have hormone-disrupting qualities – mimicking estrogen – and interfere with the body’s endocrine system.





* Phenol carbolic acid – Found in many lotions and skin creams. Can cause circulatory collapse, paralysis, convulsions, coma and even death from respiratory failure.





* Propylene glycol – Used as a moisturizer in cosmetics and as a carrier in fragrance oils. Shown to cause dermatitis, kidney or liver abnormalities, may inhibit skin cell growth, and is a skin irritant and sensitizer.





* Acrylamide – Found in many hand and face creams. Linked to mammary tumors in lab research.





* Sodium laurel or lauryl sulfate (SLS), also known as sodium laureth sulfate (SLES) – Found in car washes, engine degreasers, garage floor cleaners… and in OVER 90% of personal care products! SLS breaks down the skin’s moisture barrier, easily penetrates the skin, and allows other chemicals to easily penetrate. Combined with other chemicals, SLS becomes a “nitrosamine”, a potent class of carcinogen. It can also cause hair loss. SLES is sometimes disguised with the labeling “comes from coconut” or “coconut-derived%26quot; - and is found in many popular body washes and toothpastes!





* Toluene – Poison! Danger! Harmful or fatal if swallowed! Harmful if inhaled or absorbed through the skin. Made from petroleum or coal tar, and found in most synthetic fragrances. Chronic exposure linked to anemia, lowered blood cell count, liver or kidney damage, and may affect a developing fetus. Butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) contains toluene. Other names may include benzoic and benzyl.





* WAXES – Such as Paraffin, Candelilla Wax, Carnuba Wax: Waxes are widely used in cleansing creams, eye creams, and moisturizers. Waxes clog pores, creating blackheads and whiteheads. They also smother the skin, which over time creates an enlarged pore problem.





* Lanolin – A yellow, semi-solid, fatty secretion from sheep’s wool is widely used in skin and beauty care products. It can cause an allergic reaction in some people, as well as enlarged pores.





* Acetone – Used in nail polish and nail polish removers, this colorless, volatile liquid is often used in astringents, fresheners, or clarifying lotions. It is extremely toxic and will dehydrate the skin, while speeding up the aging process.





* ALCOHOLS – Such as Isopropyl Alcohol, SD Alcohol 40, Ethyl Alcohol: Alcohols dissolve the body’s natural moisturizers and strip the skin of its protection, leaving it vulnerable to infection. Alcohols destroy skin’s pH balance, and since they absorb water, they speed up wrinkling.





* FD%26amp;C – When this abbreviation precedes the name of a color, it means that the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) has certified it as safe for use in drugs and cosmetics, but not food. D%26amp;C colors are usually synthetic, coal tar colors. They’re toxic and should be avoided when at all possible.





* Dioxane – Found in compounds known as PEG, Polysorbates, Laureth, ethoxylated alcohols. Common in a wide range of personal care products. The compounds are usually contaminated with high concentrations of highly volatile 1,4-dioxane, easily absorbed through the skin. Dioxane’s carcinogenicity was first reported in 1965 and later confirmed in studies including one from the National Cancer Institute in 1978. Nasal passages and liver are the most vulnerable. Dioxane is easily removed during the manufacturing process by “vacuum stripping”. Warning: It is a synthetic derivative of coconut. Watch for hidden language on labels, such as “comes from coconut”.





IF SO, you should throw them away IMMEDIATELY and Tell ALL your friends and family!!! (Extra-virgin olive and/or coconut oils are great alternative moisturizers, and they contain natural sunscreens, until you find something else without these toxins) Hope this helps!!! Good luck!!!!!|||I am in love with Aveeno face wash. It%26#039;s like 7? dollars at WalMart, but it lasts a pretty good long time, if you don%26#039;t use a lot at once.





Also, to get good skin, you need a moisturizer. I have been using Olay hydrating cream for sensitive skin and it works great for me. It has never broken me out. It%26#039;s about 6-7 dollars at WalMart|||i usually use COQ10. its organic and it helps out with blemishes. i get pimples easily and i have sensitive skin. this doesnt moisture too much and it doesnt oil it out. it works like kick butt! my face was clear in a week! a little pricey. but worth it.





http://www.shopping.com/xPO-Orjene_Orjene_Organics_CoQ10_OliveVitale_Foaming_Face_Wash_7_fl_oz|||cetaphil face wash. i think it%26#039;s about 6 bucks. my brother used to have really bad acne when he was a teenager, and had to go to a dermatologist. the derm. told him to use cetaphil face wash and moisturizer and it worked! his face was clear in like a month.





i use cetaphil too, and it works like a charm! it makes your skin really soft too.|||I used St. Ive%26#039;s Apricot scrub for a long time, and it worked very well. It smelled nice too. I%26#039;m not sure if it would be good for sensitive skin though. I%26#039;ve also used Proactive and it works great. Only downside is that it is kind of expensive.





Hope that helps!|||Neutrogena|||i would say noxema
