I have slightly combination skin with mostly dryness (especially popping out on the forehead). I am in my 30's and about 3 years ago discovered Arbonne. Spendy stuff, but even with the morning / night routine of use, it lasted almost a year as I use approx <1 pump each time. If I were to calc it out - it would still be probably twice as expensive as something bought at Target minus eye cream. I have stayed with the routine because - and I feel like an advertisement (and no I don't sell the stuff), because it didn't make me feel oily, it has seriously dimished the wrinkles (as in - a few of my friends now use it because of what it has done to my wrinkles), and the hydration spray feeling is so refreshing after my shower that I actually look forward to it. Sounds goofy, but it feels cool and soft.
My routine is long (about 5 minutes), but I work it into other things. For example - the second step needs two minutes before the third. Okay, time to brush my teeth. Between step 3 and 4, I floss. The funny thing is my dentist was the one who turned me on to the product. I think it was her secret way to get people to brush for 2 minutes and then floss twice a day .
Best bet with Arbonne is find a consultant who will give you samples and then decide if you want to continue it. I have bought my products when I find a consultant who will sell it at 50% off.
I used to use Clinque and still think they have some great products. I wear their makeup, along with Aveda, exclusively. (now, NOT a fan of Aveda skin products, but I think they have a new line now...) I say this as makeup can also be an important part of your routine (if you wear) especially if you have dry skin...
