current skincare obsession that got rid of my bumps
10
items i owe these products my soul, fr. my bumps and acnes are getting sooo much better, thanks to them. kindly take these recs with a grain of salt, since what works for me might not work the same for you :)
if you're new into retinoids, this one's for you. affordable and very gentle to the skin. but don't apply too much since the texture is a bit on the thicker side
A313 Pommade - Beauty Review
hands. down. best moisturizer on this EARTH. my face has never been this smooth, it cleared out my bumps in 2 weeks-ish. super worth its price.
La Roche Posay Cicaplast Baume B5
soo good for what it's worth! i kinda think it works wonder bcs it smoothens out my skin pretty quickly compared to any other facial fash i've tried
La Roche Posay Effaclar Gel Facial Wash for Oily Skin
this bad b is a POTENT, but once your skin is well-acquainted with it, it will look better than it has ever been. don't use it too often, tho. weekly/biweekly is enough, esp if you're just starting with AHA BHA
AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution
the baddest OG of glycolic acid. this saved my skin during my summer breakout this year. it's still very gentle, so deffo a glycolic-acid-beginner friendly!
Glow Tonic - Exfoliating Glycolic Acid Toner
my staple sunscreen for quite some time already! perfect finish for my dry skin, which is an in-between. not too dewy, but not a dead matte as well.
The Supergoop Unseen Sunscreen
the perfect BHA-beginner toner! not too gentle, but enough to clear bumps and exfoliate your skin. twice a week is okay if your skin is well-acquainted with it already
Paula's Choice Skin Perfecting 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant
this one got so many mixed reviews, but i personally enjoyed it! it helped the inflamed bumps on my forehead and chins, and my skin was smoother
The INKEY List USA Salicylic Acid Cleanser & Face Wash 150ml
OMG THIS PRODUCT HAS MY HEART. best milky toner i've tried. helped my got rid of tiny bumps and hydrated my skin very well. some says it's a good dupe for Rhode's glazing milk!
Byoma Hydrating Milky Toner
a great, cheaper alternative to Pixi Glow Tonic, though for me, Pixi worked better. but worth a shot, and it helped clearing out any excess dirt even after using a micellar water
Glycolic Acid 7% Exfoliating Toner
