Well, Good response and thanks to everyone. I have not tried any cleansing , exfoliator products in USA yet.. been using Jergens moisturizer.. I have gone to CVS today and looked at Skin Care products.. uhhhh!.. there are lots of options... I was confused on what to pick...so returned and posting a question out here... So, I heard about Cataphil moisturizer, Clinique skin care, Proactive.. having gone through clinique site, I see there are two options to give a try..
1. Clinique 3-Step.. Not sure if this works on men
2. Clinique's mens Combo of a. Scruffing Lotion, b. M lotion and c. Liquid Face Wash Extra-Strength
What are these exfoliators? Not sure if I understand them.
Im also looking for a liquid foundation.. are they different for men and women ?

I am looking to start a comprehensive skin care regimen. I know I should wear daily sunscreen and also?
exfoliate daily with either alpha-hydroxy cream, or a facial scrub. I have been using a cream called Pentaxyl which is supposed to treat fine lines and wrinkles. But I am skeptical of anything that is not FDA-approved. Too many snake oil salesmen.
I heard of some prescription cream called Renova or Retin-A. What is the difference between these two? Is there anything else that i should know about how to take care of my skin?
What should be my daily skin care regime?
I am 21 years old and barely use make-up; however; I want to start taking care of my skin. What products and in what order should I be using if my skin is combined? I tend to have acne around my forehead and chin but lately I have been developing them close to the jawbones and the neck.

I just turned 27, and I want to prevent the wrinkles before they start. I'm totally clueless when it comes to skin care. What types of products should I be using and how often? Right now i just use basic face wash. I don't need brand names, but if you have some to recommend that would be good too.
2 Ingredients Every Skin Care Cream Should Have (And 2 They Shouldn?T!)
Do you avoid the skin care cream aisle at the store? Are you stubbornly using the same skin care moisturizer cream from 5 years ago, simply to avoid shopping for a new one? It's overwhelming to see hundreds of "the best..." skincare products to choose from. How can you possibly determine which are rip-offs and which actually work? How can you be sure that the 3 oz bottle of skin care moisturizer cream (priced at $34.99) isn't the same stuff as the $3.99 bottle of Jergens at Wal-mart? I'll make it easy for you. Here is a crash-course in skin care cream ingredients. I've listed 2 ingredients your skin is crying out for, and 2 ingredients your skin has nightmares about. With just these 4 tips, you'll be able to weed out 95% of the thorns and come out with a rose.
2 Things Every Skin Care Cream Should HaveBabassu
Vitamin E (in the form of natural alpha-tocopherol)
2 Things Your Skin Care Cream Should NOT HaveParabens - (look on the label for methyl, propyl, butyl, and ethyl parabens)
Mineral oil - (also written on the label as liquid paraffin, paraffin wax, or petrolatum)
In evaluating your skin care cream, keep this question in your mind: Could you eat your skin care moisturizer cream? (I'm not suggesting you do, just asking if you could.) If you recoil in horror from putting those ingredients in your mouth, why would you put them on your skin? After all, it's going to be absorbed and enter your body just as if you had eaten it. Crack open that cabinet and pull out your skin care cream. Flip it over and look at the ingredients label. If your skin care moisturizer cream is missing those two important ingredients, and if it uses mineral oil and Parabens instead, it's time to find a new skin care cream.You can spread effective skin care cream and eat it too. Synthetics not only damage your skin's health in the long run, they are simply not as efficient in treating your skin in the long run. (But they are cheaper! This is why so many skincare manufacturers use them!)Babassu and Natural Vitamin E are just the tip of the iceberg. There are a whole host of other ingredients that bring will bring out the best in your skin care cream.
Phytessence Wakame, Maracuja, and Crodamol OP come most immediately to mind. You can find out more about these amazing botanical ingredients (and where to find a skin care cream with them inside) at my website linked below.

There are healthy and natural remedies to even the worst skin issues. The key is in the ingredients. Do you choose plant oils and extracts with proven clinical histories? Or chemical by-products that have been linked to cancers? The difference could be a long lifetime of glowing skin.
