What I Do: Lindsay's Fair-Skin Regimen

"I can't tell you how much Tazorac has helped my skin! At first, my skin was more red and irritated than normal, but with moisturizer and persistence, I was pleased with the results. Of course, always consult your dermatologist before beginning any retinol treatment. It increases the rate of cell turnover, leaving me with unclogged pores and a glowing complexion. I use a prescription-strength retinol treatment twice a week at bedtime, but newly available over-the-counter versions can be just as effective."

"Moving from cold to warm temperatures takes a harsh toll on my skin, especially when it's already prone to dryness. I find that having the right cleanser is the first step to supple skin. I love this product. It cleanses my skin without stripping it of its moisture."

"Twice a week, I use an exfoliant to unclog my pores and whisk away dead, dry skin. The cool feeling that Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash Redness Soothing Gentle Scrub leaves behind wakes me up and makes my face feel squeaky-clean every time!"

"After cleansing, I spritz a toner on my face and let it air-dry while I start doing my hair. I love Jurlique's Lavender Hydrating Mist because it adds that glowy, 'I just slept for a full eight hours' look to my skin, even if I only got a fraction of that!"

"I use prescription-strength Duac gel to zap any imperfections, but any acne gel will do the trick! Try On the Spot Acne Treatment by Neutrogena."

"My all-time favorite moisturizer is a classic: Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion. I apply this all over my face and neck, directly over any treated acne (once the acne treatment has fully dried). It keeps my face looking fresh and acts as a great primer for foundation."

"I love multitasking, and beauty products that can do the same are phenomenal! As a finishing touch, I apply bareMinerals foundation SPF 15 — which is especially important for women who use retinol products — in Fairly Light around my nose and under my eyes as concealer. Afterward, I put a little on a large face powder brush and dust my entire face to even out the tone. Add a little blush and voilà — a flawless face that works for (not against) you!"
