Ducray Keracnyl Foaming Gel 400ml Oily Skin
The best for soothing the skin.
COSRX Advanced Snail Mucin Gel Cleanser
My favorite cleansing oil. For the days I do double cleansing (twice a week) it is perfect.
5 Omega Cleansing Oil
Best exfoliating gel for face. I use it once a week.
GENTLE JELLY FACE SCRUB Gentle exfoliating gel
Acne-Fighting Treatment
Definitely the best treatment I have ever tried for hormonal acne that my doctor recommended me. Benzaknen (benzoyl peroxide) can be very effective, but it may cause dryness, peeling, and irritation when you first start using it. Begin with 2–3 night...
BENZAKNEN® 10% Gel 15 g
This is my go-to daytime treatment. A great option for improving skin texture and the look of acne marks. Use it gradually and don’t forget your daily SPF.
KERACNYL GLYCOLIC+ - Cleansing cream
Sunscreen I can’t live without.
keracnyl uv - Anti-Blemish Fluid
This with Benzaknen Cream saved me. I use this in the morning after washing my face and before spf.
Also perfect for days after chemical peeling. I put a lot of it on my face in nighttime.
Bepanthen Cream
One of my favorite lightweight moisturizers. It hydrates without feeling heavy and helps keep my skin barrier happy, especially when I’m using acne treatments.
PM Facial Moisturizing Lotion
A great everyday moisturizer that leaves my skin feeling soft and hydrated without being greasy. I love using it when my skin feels a little irritated or dry.
La Roche-Posay Toleriane Double Repair Moisturizer 2.5oz
Toners
I use this one right now, it has 4% azelaic acid what helps with hormonal acne, acne scars and redness.
