Hello Universe! I hope that the lovely skies have smiled down on you today. So, the recent months of my life have been full of nerves and high levels of stress, which has resulted in a lot of craziness coming out on my skin. By using a few of my favorite skin care products I have managed to clean it up quite a bit, mind you I did not all of a sudden completely fix my skin, but it certainly is very improved after keeping to one routine for a few weeks.
Without further ado, here are the few products that I always reach for when I have a break out and why:
1. Origins Out of Trouble Mask
-This is literally a life saver, whenever my skin starts to break out or get splotchy I immediately reach for this. It is technically a ten minute mask but I will usually leave it on for as long as I can. When you take it off, your skin is incredibly soft and has a much more even tone. Usually I will put this on right after cleansing and follow it with my toner and moisturizer.
2. Origins Super Spot Remover
-This one is super helpful for the big painful spots that just don't seem to go away. I am pretty sure that this one has been in my monthly favorites before, but it is so worth the purchase. It doesn't make the spot go away, but it definitely kills whatever grossness is building up under the skin. In my experience it hasn't made the redness go away super quickly but it gets rid of the spot in a much better way than just picking at it.
3. First Aid Beauty Face Cleanser used with Foreo's Luna
-So I have been using these two products together for about a month now and they are my holy grail of skin care. I know the Luna is pretty pricy but it has completely changed my skin. I originally got it after having an allergic reaction to something, so my skin was covered in zits and rashes. It really gets the product that you are using deep into the skin to clear out any imperfections, my skin has become a million time softer and now after cleansing my skin truly feels incredibly clean. I have recently started using the First Aid Beauty brand and have become a huge fan. This cleanser is so gentle and soft and really makes my skin feel pampered.
4. Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Stress Control Triple-Action Toner
-So I never have been a huge person on toners, but recently my skin has seemed really dull, so I thought I would add them into my daily skin care routine to see what happens. I have fallen in love with this one in particular. I tend to have oily skin, so the fact that it is oil-free is perfect for my skin. I usually put it on after cleansing, or if I do a mask then after that. It just feels like all of the bacteria that is sitting on my skin from the day gets killed off. Over the past few weeks my skin has also become brighter from using it.
5. Bio-Oil and Tea Tree Oil
-So this was a tip that I read on Pinterest and decided to try since I happened to have both of these products lying around. My skin cannot thank me enough now. This combination is super hydrating as well as a huge help to balance out skin tone. It takes a while to sink into the skin so I usually finish off my nighttime skin routine by slathering this over my face, neck, and chest. The formula that I use is one large pump of Bio-Oil and then three drops of tea tree oil, and I absolutely love the smell of both products so falling asleep with it on is absolutely heavenly.
In my ongoing quest to permanently fix my skin, keep an eye out for product reviews (I will be reviewing Your Tea's Skin Magic Tea, and Dream Dots) and any other discoveries that I make!
Stay Awesome Guys,
Kodi
