Cleansers
I’ve tried a few different oil cleansers and i find this one is the most gentle! Doesn’t feel stripping or drying. I massage it in on dry skin for 2 minutes, then emulsify with water to create a milky-like texture. I then wash it off throughly before...
Anua - Heartleaf Pore Control Cleansing Oil | YesStyle
This is step 2 in my cleansing routine. I find that this gel cleanser is non-stripping but still makes me feel clean, it’s non-irritating and helped me reduce oil production and breakouts!
Avene Xeracalm Nutrition Cleansing Gel 500ml
I use this cleanser in my back and shoulders in the shower! This helped reduce breakouts and redness, as well as oil production!
Effaclar + M Purifying Foaming Gel Cleanser
Moisturisers
My favourite simple moisturiser and never breaks me out, you only need a small amount to cover the face and is inexpensive!! I also use this on my body after showering
Daily Advance Ultra Hydrating Lotion 226 ml & 473 ml
This is my favourite product for barrier repair! It’s very gentle and calming, no break outs! I often use this as a second moisturiser, especially after using a retinol!
Purito SEOUL - Mighty Bamboo Panthenol Cream | YesStyle
Serums
Recommended by my skin therapist! This helped me fade scars and brighten my skin tone, it also sits well under makeup!
Vitamin C Hemp Seed Oil - Skin Brightening
I don’t use this on my face, but I use it in a spray bottle for my back! I used to get acne around my back and shoulders and using a glycolic acid helped reduce breakouts!
The Ordinary Glycolic Acid 7% Exfoliating Toner 240mL | Skincare
Retinol
Retinol was the best thing I used to clear my acne, there are lower dosage versions that I recommend using first!
Retinal 0.2% Emulsion: Reduce Dark Spots& Even Out Skin Tone
Recommended by my skin therapist! This helped speed up healing of my acne and acne scars, I found that my breakouts disappeared much faster using this product and didn’t leave behind red marks like my acne usually does!
Nighttime Repair
This was the best retinol I used to help clear up my skin, I started using this after building up with less intense retinol products, as it can be quite strong. Make sure to wear SPF everyday when using a retinol!
Differin Acne Treatment Gel 30g - Adapalene (S3)
Face and Body oils
I used this when my eczema was getting bad, this oil nearly instantly moisturised my skin and got rid of all eczema patches on my face, sits well under makeup and feels nice on the skin!
Glory Oil - Best Certified Organic Face Oil | Eco By Sonya
I use this body oil after showering on my arms and legs! Incredibly moisturising and smells amazing, my skin is always so soft and smooth after using this. Doesn’t feel greasy or irritating at all!
