My skin isn't perfect and I still have a lot of work to do but I love the routine I have now.
So, here are the products and my review.
KOSE Softy Mo Deep Treatment Oil, 7.8oz
So, this is my first oil that I've been using for a double cleanse . I've really enjoyed it and I often feel like it can clean my skin on its own, it doesn't leave my skin feeling greasy either. This was also my first Asian skincare product , specifically from Japan. Love it !
La Roche-Posay Effaclar Medicated Gel Acne Cleanser, 6.76 Fl. Oz.
I like this BHA SA wash because it doesn't completely strip my skin of its' oils but does leave it drier than usual. Personally, I think it's one of the better SA washes on the market but obviously YMMV.
Neutrogena Hydro Boost Hyaluronic Acid Hydrating Water Face Gel Moisturizer for Dry Skin, 1.7 fl. oz
This was a huge game changer in terms of moisturizers. Most moisturizers are way too occlusive to me to the point that I actually break out because my pores can't breath or so light, I remain dry and unaffected...and thus break out from dryness. This is the happy medium for me. My only issue is that the amount you get in the tub can make you run out quickly, luckily, a little goes a long way.
Village 11 Factory Sunscreen, Broad Spectrum SPF 50+, UVA/UVB Protection for Sensitive Skin, Moisturizing Hydra Sun Fluid
This is a Korean product. This is probably the only sunscreen I'll be using until something happens to the company LOL ! Its consistency is very close to the hydroboost so it just glides into the skin. It smells very similar too. One thing I noticed about this sunscreen is that it contains chemical ingredients as well as mineral ingredients. As someone who has only ever used American sunscreens before, I find this hybrid very unusual (and welcome). Perhaps it's a Korean skincare thing ? Let me know.
The other two are very well known products.
I use TO Niacinimide + Zinc . This was also a game changer for me and I'm just so glad I learned about it. It really helped regulate my oil production and helped the inflammation I get whenever my face get's too hot and sweaty or too dry. I've tried going without it for a month, just to see if perhaps it was just my imagination. Well, I think it's safe to say that it wasn't my imagination , this stuff really works.
I also use TO AHA + BHA chemical peel once or twice a week. I mostly use it for my hyperpigmentation . I know that the SA from my la roche posay is a BHA by itself but I like the extra "oomph" that the AHA does to my skin .
La Roche-Posay Effaclar Deep Cleansing Foaming Cleanser cleared up my skin brilliantly. I can highly recommend it.
I notice they've also come out with a Medicated Gel Acne Cleanser and a multi-step treatment system. I haven't tried these, however I know Effaclar Duo (included in the treatment system) has consistently been well reviewed.
I don't really have much skin trouble anymore, however if I feel my skin looks a little congested I use the Cattier Clay Mask. It's really inexpensive in France, and surprisingly not horribly overpriced on the US either.
I hope you find something that helps clear up your skin! I know how rubbish flare-ups can be and how much it can impact how you feel about yourself.
Zapzyt's Acne Wash with 2% SA. This has gentle surfactants and is the most non-drying SA cleanser I've tried, it feels really gentle.
I haven't tried La Roche Posay's SA cleanser yet but I've seen good reviews for this one.
Does anyone here have any experience with la-roche posay cleanser? I was thinking of getting some because it is paraben free and fatty acid free and cereve products didnt work for me, they just brokeout my forhead and it really sucked. So now im considering this. I just have had bad acne and nothing as worked. Ive tried all pills and creams and even accutane 3 whole times and im still here at 23 with blemishes on my face. I need this fixed
This is the one I was looking at
