Help me choose a skin care system?

I had my first facial today at a day spa. It was mentioned to me that I have a bit of rosacea which I never knew. I was also told I should use products for sensitive skin, that my skin is a touch oily and that I need to start using an exfoliant. I’d like to find a line of skin care products that carry a cleanser, exfoliant, toner and moisturizer. I can’t afford the line of products that the spa carries (we’re talking over $200). She also mentioned to me that products carried at walmart and such have added chemicals and preservatives to prolong their shelf life which can be more harmful to skin.

HELP!

I’m currently using spectro gel and was told this is not the best option.

With rosacea you definitely need to use products for sensitive skin.
As for an exfoliant, you need to use something very gentle. Nothing with coarse beads or a scrub or any harsh chemicals. Alpha hydroxy acids are best.
I would not recommend Clinique as it too has parabens in it, which are preservatives.
Here is a website that I’ve found that I think will help you find the right product line for you.

Good Luck!
