The products that I use religiously every day esp in the morning
The thing that’s helped with my acne scars the most!! Has helped my red spots from sweets also
SKIN PERFECTING 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant
I love that it doesn’t feel super heavy! It’s perfect if you walk/bike
Ultra-Light Moisturizing Lotion SPF 30
Helps w/ redness and I use it every day along w the innbeauty
10% Azelaic Acid Booster
I’ve had this for two years now and it’s so amazing for redness and fine lines. I think I prefer the Higher Dose one mostly due to its flexibility and ability to take with me when traveling. However! This mask only requires 3 mins
DRx SpectraLite™ FaceWare Pro 3-Minute LED Device
Endorsed by the rosacea society and for good reason! Doesn’t make me break out like other color correcting products
Calm The Red Down | Soothing Serum for Redness & Irritation
I do this every morning as my chill moment before my day gets started and I swear it wakes me up?? Regardless I like this one better than Dr. Dennis Gross for its flexibility and I can take it with me traveling. That being said it requires more time ...
Red Light Therapy Face Mask - FDA Cleared
Nightly
The products I use nightly without fail- these are more winter recommendations bc it’s what I’m using now
My favorite for winter- it’s heavy but absorbs into the skin and you wake up w skin that’s soooo soft
Black Tea Anti-Aging Ceramide Moisturizer
This is the best for scars- I only use it once a day but even then it only took about two weeks to see an improvement.
B3 Nice 10% Niacinamide Serum
My favorite breakfast place w the BEST pancakes. Also everyone’s super nice and recognize people that come in often. There’s a wait so get there early
Face Wash & Face Cleansers for All Skin Types
I’m not sure if this even works tbh but I love how it feels in the winter and use it at night on top of the black tea moisturizer
Bio-Oil Skincare Oil for Scars & Stretch Marks
Blemish Specific
Blemish shlemish okay acne gods do ur worst
Believe it or not- some of your acne might be fungal! Try this on stubborn spots if they don’t clear up with the usual spot treatments
Lotrimin® AF Athlete's Foot Antifungal Cream
Any pimple patch will do- I use them while I’m studying or in lab bc they prevent me from touching my face/picking at the spot.
Mighty Patch™ Original Hydrocolloid Acne Patch
Differin is a great brand overall for acne. I don’t use this often mostly bc BP bleaches clothes and sheets. HOWEVER, it’s so effective and when I have a stubborn cystic pimple it’s the only thing that calms it down
Differin - 10% Benzoyl Peroxide Spot Treatment
Okay so I only use this for targeted cystic/hormonal spots. I don’t use it broadly but keep it on my night stand for when I feel one coming on
Lux Collection Glō | Portable LED Blue and Red Light Therapy
