13
items As someone that has struggled with both acne and sensitive and dry skin, I can say that I have gotten my skincare routine down. These are the things I use to take care of my skin.
I use this in place of a moisturizer. I have very dry skin and it gives instant relief without clogging my pores! I find it to be very gentile for my sensitive skin.
The Ordinary 100% Organic Cold-Pressed Rose Hip Seed Oil
These are by far the best and most affordable pimple patches/hydrocolloid patches that I have tried. Mighty Patches are more expensive and, in my opinion, do not do as good of a job sticking to my skin. These patches are very sticky and definitely do...
Neutrogena Stubborn Acne Blemish Patches
I am in my first two months of testing this product, and I can say that I have seen results. I definitely purged for about two weeks, but since then I have not seen any breakouts on my skin other than the occasional isolated pimple.

I absolutely swear by this face wash. It builds a great lather when you rub it into the skin for the right amount of time, so you always know that it is working. I have been using this consistently for almost two years. Their sunscreen was amazing fo...
Cleansers - EltaMD
This spray has been a game changer for me. It does not leave the face feeling dry. It is very friendly for sensitive skin. I like to bring it in a small spray bottle on airplanes so that I can keep my face clean. It is a much more affordable version ...

This product might be a bit controversial, but I can only say good things. Keep this away from open wounds on the skin and you will be golden. It dries out small pimples that are too deep to pop overnight.
Drying Lotion - On-The-Spot Solution for Blemishes | Mario Badescu
These do exactly what they say they do! I like to use them right out of the shower when my pores are open and there is nothing on my face in the way of skincare or makeup. It is so satisfying to see what gets extracted!
Bioré Deep Cleansing Pore Strips, Original, Blackhead Remover ...
This cleanser, while not what I reach for on the daily, was definitely a trusty and more affordable option than the cleanser listed above. It was very gentle on the skin and definitely left me feeling clean and hydrated.

These pimple patches are an absolute life saver. They are able to reach those deep painful pimples and normally bring them to the surface after 1-2 uses.

This is not a daily product for me, but it definitely keeps my skin in check. Proceed with caution because it is very strong.

This product is also a bit controversial, but I can appreciate it for a sometimes use. Keeps the skin turning over and feeling fresh.
