I've tried every OTC thing, too. I really like the Purity, and I think I may use it alone for a week just to make sure. :yay:

Let us know how it goes. I've been using Proactiv the past few months but using it twice a day for my combination skin is drying it out. Plus you're not suppose to microdermabrase with Proactiv - makes you turn red. So I'm looking for an alternative cleanser, at least for once/day. I looked at Purity and it has awesome reviews but I'm concerned that there's so much oil in the ingredients. I was leaning toward Beauty Without Cruelty Facial Cleanser but there are three different kinds: alpha hydroxy, herbal cream, milk, and vitamin C and I have no clue what the difference is between these or what they do differently.

I really like the Purity cleanser, however; I've been using it along with my Proactiv. I use the Proactiv scrub for 30 seconds, then the Purity on top of it for another 30 seconds to a minute. I've noticed in a big difference in the way my skin feels and looks. I thought Proactiv was good, but this Purity is bomb-diggity!!

Geesh, I didn't realize it was that expensive. I purchased a small, 2 oz "try me" size, along with a bunch of Amazing Grace stuff. I do notice that a very small amount goes a LOOOOOONG way.

I've used Cliniques Daily Foaming Face Wash for years and swear by it. I have combo skin and am prone to "once a month" breakouts. I tried to bump it up and use something a little stronger and it dried me out terribly, especially around the eyes. Try the Clinique, it's only about $15 a tube and a tube lasts me at least 2-3 months washing twice daily.

Does anyone use the Medium Beige? My kit came w/Medium and Medium Beige, and the Med-Beige isn't a good match. I tried mixing the 2, and that's really not much better. The medium seems to work best for me. I'll work out a trade if anyone has something good for me, for a full-sized, twice used Med-Beige. :cheesy:

I got the same kit. Although I like the medium better, I do use the medium beige 1-2 times a week. I've got tons & tons of Redken! :whistle:
