Is it ok to use different product brands in my facial skin-care routine?

Right now I use Garnier nutritionist Cream cleanser then use zia skin basics rosewater toner and twice a week substitute it for aveda exfoliant. Then I use dove sensitive skin facial lotion. I am wondering if this is ok on my skin? Also I am in my teens (young teens)

Yes, it's fine.
Reply:definitely. it's also best to mix up your routine a bit (sounds like you do) so your skin doesn't become immune to the affects of the products you are using. brand is irrelevant, it matters that you use products that are good for your skin.
Reply:Yes, it is okay.


But if u want a more effective result try for same brands.
Reply:Yes it is fine. I do. I use generic apricot scrub, ( check your labels, not all generics are the exact formula of the name brand) and then Netrogena Face Wash. I also use Oil of Olay Facial Toner. It works like an astringent, but is more gentle then most.
Reply:That sounds like a whole lot of petroleum chemicals. I hope the proven risks don't outweigh the benefits for you.
