Okay, mine's really simple, but it leaves skin radiant.
Wash face with Dove white bar (with your hands or very plush washcloth), tone with Dickinson's pure witch hazel (does not strip face, leaves it soft), moisturize with Neutrogena Oil Free Moisture (it gives your face the moisture it needs without leaving it coated in a greasy mess...soaks right in!)

If you still need more moisture than the oil-free stuff, I would recommend using a serum before moisturizing. During the harsh Chicago winter, I use Mineral Care's Essential Serum with Green Tea (about $19.00 at Target). WONDERFUL STUFF!!!!

Body wash: Bath & Body Works Japanese Cherry Blossom...divine!!!!! It is soooooo sensual and feels great. The whole shower room smells great when the steam rises! Moisturize after shower with Japanese Cherry Blossom body lotion...non-greasy, sinks in.

Oh, I almost forgot! Face exfoliation: Just add a small amount of sugar from your kitchen to your favorite cleanser when you wash. Use gentle circular motion, rinse, pat dry, tone, mosturize. Only exfoliate once or twice a week to avoid over-production of facial oils.

Cheers!
