skincare in P2

What do y'all use on your face during P2? In my first round, I just used my normal stuff. I also used coconut oil instead of body lotion. Since I want to go totally by the book, what do y'all use?

Also, I don't know what's happening, but my skin is horrible! crepey, wrinkly, yuck! It seems like in the last couple of weeks it has gotten way worse.

I used Neutrogena Oil Free moisturizer. It's nice and light and doesn't clog pores. Also Aquaphor on my lips, elbows and heels. For a good body lotion, you can try Lubriderm sensitive skin. No oils in that either. Also the wrinkly thing--your skin will tighten up. It just takes a little time. Make sure you're hydrated--AND STOP DRINKING BEER! My skin always looks crappy if I have alcohol dehydration! Try having a tall cold glass of club soda with a slice of lemon or lime and a shot of vodka! Way easier on the skin and less carbs.

I TOTALLY hear you on the beer though! Must be the German in me but I LOVE it and can drink gallons. (Trust me--I just got back from Mexico! ) It does NOT love me, though! Skin looks crummy, I get puffy AND wrinkly, and the bloat--lordy!

I use Aveno Oil free face moisturizer. I've used the Nutrogena oil free before but I like the Aveno better.

Ugh, don't get me started on Proactiv.

I used Serene glycolic wash and glycolic gel with Repechage pore perfecting serum.
