I have a few homemade soap recipes I have used as well,
esp for face,
using glycerine, baking soda, almond oil , and citrus, and fragrance oils of my choice.
can make you own soaps so easily in really so little time.

Also Bronner castile soap products are usually very low priced for a half a gallon,
can use it for just about anything from body / face / shampoo /laundry,
or toothpaste.
we even use it to wash the dog!

check out my "Eye OF Newt" blog for different recipes/
esp about face care homemade products.

also burtsbees.com makes a nice blemish oil :

I use their face soap called wild lettuce soap,
often and keep it dry out of bathroom when not using it so that it
doesn't get soft.

(auromere products are fab as well)
the tulsi -neem shampoos etc

So when I don't want to make my own,
that is generally what I use.

burtsbees has a great winter chapstick
(get in plastic tube not tin)
and also I love their natural lipstick
which stays put, and has peppermint flavor.
(again buy in tube not in tin.)
the lip liners I often use as plain lipstick as well .
