Do any of you use something for cleansing your skin? I'm taking about your face that would be natural and healthy.

This is off that topic-- just a comment- I am so thrilled with myself. I've gotten so much better at getting a great salad at a restaurant. I would ask for a salad and get this tiny thing. Now I get their meat salads--(as long as they are big pieces sitting on top) and give it to my dogs. They love me!!! That way I get a huge salad with more "stuff" in it and my boys think it is wonderful!!

LOL. I do the same, just ask for the meat/seafood on the side - and my husband eats it... Works for me.

I honestly just use warm water and a wash cloth. I haven't a product or anything else on my face in a very long time. I do dry brush my entire body, face included. I try to do that daily, but I don't always have time. *Ü*

Boy, I wish I could get away with just warm water and a wash cloth. It seems that drier, very sensitive skin types can do this and in fact that's exactly what's recommended, especially if one doesn't wear any makeup. Since I still have some oil in my skin at the ripe old age of 63, I also have pores that fill up easily and my skin type needs more exfoliation in general. And I do wear a bit of makeup and natural sunblock. However, my skin is also somewhat reactive, so I have to be careful exactly what goes on it and stays on for any length of time. I can use an AHA cleanser, but not a cream containing such. For creams, my own shea butter-coconut cream works well, applied lightly - a little goes a long way, and it's excellent for body and feet as well. In fact, it's fab after a home pedicure(no polish though - my feet are au naturel.)
