My very first mother's day

So I just celebrated my first mother's day and hubby surprised me with a wonderful gift...a facial, full body massage and pedi at the Estee Lauder spa. What a wonderful treat!
I had an amazing time. It was so relaxing and much needed. While I was there, the facialist of course convinced me into buying a cleanser and a pore minimizing serum. I was so excited to try out my new cleanser and serum.
Why oh why did I listen to her? My skin feels like sandpaper and I got all these red bumps on the sides of my face (so attractive). I bought the sparkling clean purifying mud cleanser and the idealist pore minimizing skin refinisher. Anyone else have any bad experiences with these products? It dried out my face completely...now I need to fix it. I switched back to my old cleanser, and it's getting better. I use Cindy Crawford's Meaningful Beauty and I like it. Is it the HG of skincare...no, but it's ok (at least on my skin).

These are the evil products that I bought:

Anyone have any great skincare items to recommend?
