You use too many products, no way that can be good for your skin. Even showering every day is imo unnecessary, once every other day or once a week is good enough if the only thing you did was sitting in an office all day. And if you do shower that often, most of the time you should only use water, not any other products.

I really don't understand the current trend of using an extreme amount of products on your skin, to the poiint of calling it a "routine".

Wash face with body wash that has honey, olive oil, dead sea minerals. Don't put much effort into it but it's the body wash I found doesn't irritate my skin.

Morning - rinse with water, apply Kose sunscreen, maybe a mattefying primer if I don't have time to wait for the sunscreen to sink in.

Evening- wash with Cetaphil cleanser and a microfiber cloth, maybe use a toner if I feel like it, purito calming moisturizer then a small amount of tretinoin. Maybe sometimes add in snail mucin if I'm extra dry.

Used to have bad hormonal cystic acne but some meds and tret have totally fixed it.

For the face:

Cleanse and moisturise twice daily, applying SPF 50 in the mornings and using scrub once every third day. If it's a really special occasion and I'm doing a full face of makeup I'll use bb cream.

For the body:

I just wash it with sorbolene. If I'm epilating my legs or have done so recently I might go over them with one of those exfoliating scrubber thingos and apply lotion once I've dried off.

I shower every other day, use a regular unscented bar soap (actually labeled soap, not “wash” or “cleanser”) every time with a focus on pits and junk. Wet hair but only shampoo once or twice a week. Morning and evening just splash the face with mildly warm water and hit the towel to dry. About as often as shampoo I’ll use a face cleanser in the shower too, cetaphil daily whatever, it’s just to help tackle my greasy face from poor diet.

Every time I'm near Marseille, which isn't often, grab an absolute load of bar soap. Each bar lasts two or three months of daily use

That's it

I use Neutrogena soap on my face and occasionally a pore strip on my nose followed by one of those noxzema cleaning pads with salicylic acid to help shrink the pores. I also have some blotting paper in my backpack incase things get uncomfortable during the day.

I'd do more but I honestly can't be bothered. Just the bare minimum to keep the acne and face oils at bay.

Oh and a beard trimmer. I don't shave because I I don't like the burn. Plus when I do get acne it really sucks to shave over.

Shower daily. Sugar scrub weekly. Jojobo oil as needed on whole body. Moisturizer on joints and feet as needed. Cream/ointment a minute after moisturizer to seal it in a little more.

I try to take care of it a bit, though I know a more routine routine would be better just difficult for me.

Liquid Neutrogena followed by Aveeno moisturizer in the shower.

Stridex pad periodically throughout the day if my face starts to feel oily.

I used to have a whole shave routine that included Proraso and Old Spice, but the ritual started feeling less zen and more like a chore so I don't really do it much anymore.

I try to use lotion with SPF 30 every day, and I use retinol a few times a week. I've thought about adding topical vitamin C in as well. I don't have a strong preference for any specific brand.

I wash my face with soap and water. That's it, I'm a dude, why would I need anything else?

Shower & soap (savon de Marseille) with a washcloth thingy that is not too soft. Natural deodorant (pierre d'alun). End of the process.

Unless one should also consider making faces in front of the mirror part of the daily routine, say while one is shaving or brushing one's teeth? Asking for a friend that, quite obviously, is not as adult and as serious as I am.

The Jim Jefferies routine

I don't use make-up, but I make an exception for the soap from the hardware store.

My routine goes a bit like this:

• get into shower
• turn on water
• get wet
• turn off water
• lather up
• turn on water
• rinse off
• turn off water
• rub dry with that same old towel

I do this as necessary, but at least before Christmas and midsummer (even if not necessary).

I don't have one.
