Cleanser: $20 and under
- Cleanse and remove makeup. The goal of cleansing is simple, which means a high price tag doesn'st necessarily guarantee that a particular cleanser will be more effective. According to
our review, while many products are chock full of vitamins and active ingredients -- which up the price tag considerably -- all those expensive extras only get washed down the drain. Save
money by picking a basic cleanser that thoroughly cleanses the face and removes makeup, oil and debris, but doesn'st clog pores or dry out the skin.
Toner: $15 and under
- Balance and refresh. Though using a toner is optional, it'ss a great way to restore the skin'ss pH balance and remove any trace of makeup or debris left over after cleansing. Despite
common misconception, not everyone will benefit from a toner or astringent that leaves a stinging sensation. In fact, most people will want to choose an alcohol-free formula that doesn'st
strip the skin of its natural moisture barrier.
Day cream: $25 and under
- Hydrate and protect. Sun protection is a crucial part of any daily regimen, but it isn'st necessary to spend a fortune to properly protect skin from both UV rays and environmental
damage. The goal is to find a lotion with SPF that offers the ideal amount of moisture for a particular skin type. Those concerned with premature aging should look for a day cream with
antioxidants. For anybody with acne-prone skin, search for an oil-free formula that helps to exfoliate and unclog pores.
Night cream: $40 and under
- Hydrate and treat. Wondering why almost half of the budget is reserved for the night cream While cleansers, toners and moisturizers all have fairly straightforward purposes, night
creams are fortified with a variety of active ingredients to both hydrate and combat various skin conditions -- from acne and premature aging to rosacea and hyperpigmentation. Left on
throughout the night, a higher-quality formula ensures that the skin is getting the maximum benefit from these ingredients.
- Skin type matters. When choosing the appropriate treatment, consider skin type just as with the rest of the regimen. Choose a richer cream formula for dry skin and a lightweight lotion
if skin is on the oilier side.
- Skin concerns. In addition to dry, oily or combination complexions, many night creams do double-duty to hydrate skin while also fighting blemishes, evening out skin tone or smoothing
fine lines and wrinkles. So, keep these issues in mind when shopping for a new product.

Does Mineral Makeup Provide Enough Sun Protection
http://www.skincare-news.com/articles.phpArtID=726
Although the two chief components of mineral makeup -- titanium dioxide and zinc oxide -- do protect the skin from sun damage to a certain degree, the amount is not as much as might be
expected and the claims of 'stotal's sun protection are inaccurate. Expert opinion on mineral makeup is strongly divided. Proponents claim that the sun protection factor and the purity of
the makeup are consistent. And even though the Skin Cancer Foundation endorses certain mineral makeup products with the Skin Cancer Foundation seal, industry experts insist that
regardless of these labels, these products just don'st provide adequate protection. Why do many experts state that mineral makeup with an SPF doesn'st provide the same level of protection
as a comparable sunscreen
