Most lucrative industry in the world. Pictures of mine from a recent get-together at my place and a friend's reaction to the same triggered the thought.. "Its high time I start taking care of my face":). To be frank, wish I was only consistent in my regimes. I start one and then one or two months down the line, I forget about it. All reducing to just washing the face in the shower. The latest bout of paranoia has resulted in me starting on Proactiv again. I bought Rose hip oil as recommended by a beautician and then Vitamin A (retinol cream) suggested multiple times by different beauticians for blackhead/removal/skin brightening. Now loaded with 3 different items, I am baffled what to use and when to use, and I want to try all. Retinol cream should not be used with proactiv stuff at the same time (nullifies the effect of retinol).
To add to the pile, a beautiful chinese collegue said she uses Cerave face moisturizing cream(SPF 30) and Bio oil (recommended for scars and stretch marks). As a side note, she did mention she avoids carbohydrates and sugar (other than those in fruits:)).
Now that winter is around the corner, I've decided to get a cool mist moisturizer to put an end to cracking of my skin (I love heater and dont use moisturizer.. result cracked skin).
No wonder.. Amazon stock price is shooting up.. imagine 1000s of people like me enabled with Amazon prime(the program definitely works as intended by Amazon).

I know!! It's a crazy industry, that wants you to be baffled by the numerous choices it provides :)
Btw, I use "Yes to Carrots" face moisturizer and its good. But generally, if time permits, there is no substitute to manjal and thenga ennai and kadalai maavu et al. :D
