Have you tried cleaning the skin with Clarisonic?
I'am a Clarisonic fan, mainly because the skin feel much cleaner now than before.
Also because the oscillating back and forth at a sonic frequency of more than 300 movements per second, works with the skin, not against it.
I use it with my favorite "Lancôme Gel Eclat cleanser", and the results are amazing.
The good cleansing helps products work more effectively and it's gentle enough to use twice a day.
You can buy at the Aiport feeshops, at the best price.
