It might sound disgusting to some of you, but yes it's true. There used to be a time when I would immediately come from outside and go straight to the bathroom and wash my face. What I am referring to when I say washing my face to using creams or whatever to get dirt and make up off. I rinse my face with water, but I do not wear foundation or anything so I do not feel like I need to use anything. I am however 36 and noticing my skin needs to be cared for a bit. My non face cleaning habits are very slowly changing, but it's a hard routine to get back into.

I sell Avon, and there is this awesome product Avon has, and it takes only 5 minutes in the morning and 5 minutes at night to give your skin the attention it deserves. This is know as America's #1 Anti-Aging Cleanser. Its a retroactive 2 in 1 cleaners AM/PM and it only cost $5. Avon has many more skin products that wonderful on the skin. If you would like to view a online catalog go to my website at www.youravon.com/dcamilien or you can email me at djd832001@yahoo.com

I guess as long as your skin is moist, it's okay with me. I had a good friend who washed her face so much it would dry out and she would sit for hours at a time with tweezers and a little mirror, pulling off all of the tiny, teeny pieces of dry skin. Clear up into her nose!!!!

I actually stopped washing my face years ago, I submerge my face in the bath when I wash my hair (we don't have a shower), but like you I don't use soap at all. I do my teeth and wet my hair every morning but don't specifically wash my face at all except when I have shaved (which is maybe twice a week at most). I'm not quite sure why I stopped washing my face, but it has not had any adverse effects.
