Seems I am running out of everything... Need to replace the basics. Do I have to use a toner? I would add Cellex-C serum into my routine. Am considering trying Dr. H. products. Have enjoyed Dermalogica, Cellex-C, and some Decleor products in the past. I have uneven pigmentation and tend to be toward the dry side of normal.

You have some great advice out there ladies -- bring it on! (and thanks!)

I can suggest a good moisturizer that evens out pigmentation, it is rich but doesn't break out my oily skin. Glyquin XM has lots of good ingredients and its great!

I tried Glyquin before for "spots". Found Cellex-C Fade Away Gel to be a better product.

ACV is a good toner.

Thanks OO-CAT. Would you consider toner a necessity? (I have gone with and without and generally notice no difference.) Appreciate your reply.

If you're using a foaming cleanser, I'd say using a toner is optional. It's a necessity if you have oily skin, have hard water, or use a milk cleanser.

I love the eve lom cleanser - creates amazingly clear skin and reduces lines - no need to tone. IS pricey though! I've just fallen for Estee Lauder day wear plus - tinted moisturiser which adapts to suit your skin colour - am loving it! Although I love the whole Dr H philosophy and feel it has never produced very good results for me and have tried most of the skin care products. Good Luck!

for me, a toner is optional! I've never used a toner all my life and have recently started using the DIY ACV toner posted here. It feels ok, but i definitely see no difference except the strong vinegar smell!!

I am loving Yes to Carrots mosturizers. They have both a day and night formula.

Day Cream

Night Cream

They can be purchased at Walgreens, online and at the store.

Some people feel your cleanser should be Ph balanced so your other products that follow (C's and CP's) will absorb better.
Diana Yvonne has a very nice Rose Hips cleanser that is Ph balanced. Other products are available also -
