My Skin Care Regimen

I've been asked by a few friends lately to share the details of my skin care regimen, so I thought I'd write up a blog post on the topic to kill two birds with one stone! :) I have fairly sensitive skin and suffer from cystic acne if I don't use the right products, so it's taken me awhile to figure out what works for my face without breaking me out. Now that I have my routine down to an exact science, I figured I would share what works in case any of you are looking for new products to try!
