My Acne Story - How did I improve my skin

Hi guys, today I'm going to share my acne story. Most of you didn't know that I used to suffer from acnes. Last month I was under some medication. Those medicines were playing with my hormones and broke me out really bad. My acne were the reaction of those medicines. Though I did have acnes before but that was like normal pimples or acnes popping up during my mensuration cycle.

Here is the before and after picture:

 

Before picture was taken on 21st May 2017 and the after picture was taken on 15th June 2017.

So it took me less than a month to recover from left to right.

Can you see the difference?

Pimples are gone, tan is gone and scars are lighter than before. 

I didn't edit the right picture or blurred it, this is how it looks like now. 

I'm very embarrassed to put these pictures here as this might gross you out and I have no idea how people will react to it.

I am going to share all the products that I used to improve my skin. But just letting you know these products were given by any dermatologist. I randomly got this for myself and this worked for me doesn't mean this will work for you as we all have different types of skin. 

List and details of the products:

1) The Body Shop Vitamin C Daily Glow Cleansing Polish - This is actually like a facewash, just letting you know if you have no idea what it is. 

When do I use it?

I use it in the morning after waking up, when I get back home and at night before putting on my night skin care routine. 

2) Klairs Gentle Black Deep Cleansing Oil - I use this to remove my makeup only. Removing you makeup properly is very important as it might clog pores. One of the common reason for getting acne is not removing your makeup properly. Even if it's just a face powder, you will have to make sure you clean your makeup properly. I have very sensitive skin and this oil based cleanser didn't break me out or make my skin oily. 

Exactly how do I remove my makeup?

At first I take two pumps and rub it on my face then wipe it off with a wet small tower then I use that vitamin c cleanser. 

3) The Body Shop Skin Clearing Mattifying Toner - This is a gem. This helped me a lot with the skin clearing process. Many people don't like this toner but I absolutely love it. This controls your acnes and also oil production. Whenever I use this trust me I hardly become oily. My skin type is combination, super dry in winter and super oily in summer. This worked great for me in both weather, during winter just use a very moisturizing oil or cream then it's fine. This is the first toner in life which didn't break me out. I use it after my makeup cleaning process and at night after my cleanser. Toner helps you to improve skin texture and sometimes it shrinks your pores depending on your skin type. This toner is a must have for me. Let me tell you what happened one day, I was home the whole day and I didn't even use any makeup. After cleaning my face with face wash I used my toner. Just look at the difference in these cotton pads. It cleans your skin really deeply and removes all kinds of dirt that face wash or normal toners can't remove from my experience. I was shocked. Here is the picture:

 

4) Mario Badescu - This helped me remove those annoying white heads and active acnes. I won't go in details with this as I already wrote about it, must read this will help you, check here: http://milsanzumanturin.blogspot.com/2017/05/mario-badescu-drying-lotion-hit-or-miss.html

5) Josie Maran Pure Argan Oil - People with acne prone or oily skin usually skip moisturizer. That's so wrong. You can never improve your skin if it's not healthy. You will be treating your skin with makeups and other skin care products but not providing it hydration? Moisturizing is a very important part of treating acne as moistened skin tends to loosen sebum built up inside pores. This way you are ruining you skin. The first step to healthy skin is moisturizing. I won't go in details about this product as I already wrote about it.

6) Caudalie Vinoperfect - It's a face serum which claims to remove scars and uneven skin tone. This might be too early to review as I have used it only 3 days but trust me this is a gem. Before the last 3 days I couldn't find anything that helped me remove acne scars or uneven skin tone. Three days back my skin was full of scars and uneven skin tone. Then I got this magic potion delivered. When I applied it for the first time the very next day I noticed the difference. This works very fast. This totally decreased my uneven skin tone and acnes scars in only 3 days. Unbelievable right? I still can't believe it. 

I didn't use any face masks at that moment but if you want to get a mask then I would recommend The Body Shop Tea Tree Skin Clearing Clay Mask. 

That's all guys, I hope this helps you and comment below if you have any questions.
