ALSO if you have problems with whiteheads and/or cystic acne PLS buy the COSRX acne pimple patches. ive been having a bad hormonal acne outbreak for like 2 months now since my cycles started acting up again. they're like $5 on Amazon for a sheet of 24 patches. i just got them on Thursday and every one of my pimples is fucking gone. I had like 7 whiteheads and now I don't have any. for the first time in 2 months I don't have any acne and I'm LIVING. I wish I took before n after pics but all that's left is acne scars. i put a patch on and left it for a few hours while I napped and when I woke up the entire whitehead popped on its own. like when you take them off you can see all the gross oil and dirt and sebum and stuff that was on your skin. like the entire pimple will come off on the patch if you let it sit for long enough and it doesn't even hurt. also for deep rooted cystic acne that doesn't come to a head, it works too. i always get painful bumps on my cheeks that never actually turn into real pimples so I put one of the big ones on the side of my face and it stopped hurting in 2 hours and all that's left it a little scar. ALSO the Nature Republic 92% aloe gel is great for acne scars. I just don't recommend using it as a standalone moisturizer, as it's really thin and kinda watery even though it's a gel. also it has some alcohol in it so it works great for burns and scars but not so much as a moisturizer. but it's like $7 or $8 on Amazon and you get the biggest fuckin jar of it and you only need the tiniest little bit. I've used it twice a day everyday since Thursday and you can't even tell I used it at all. it DOES give moisture though, just not enough to keep you hydrated on it's own. i had two pimples on my chin and I used the patches to get rid of them then the aloe gel and the COSRX salicylic acid wash took the scars away. you can't even tell I ever had a pimple there. ALSO ALSO the Esfolio Volcanic Ash mask is great for acne prone skin.

#i switched out all my shit literally 1 week ago and ive been washing and stuff religiously #in the mornings i use the Dr.Bronners tea tree castille soap then i use the COSRX salicylic acne wash #then i tone with the loreal one but i dont like it so im waiting for my innisfree one to come in a few days #then i'll either use a charcoal mud mask or a sheet mask #i use the esfolio Volcanic Ash or the esfolio Aloe or the Esfolio green tea one #all the masks i use are Esfolio lmao except for the mud mask #i use an actual mask like 3 times a week #on the days i dont use masks i just use the leftover serum from the masks #when i take them out of the packs i squeeze the excess serum back into the bag #the i take 2 or 3 cotton squares and put them in the bag to save for the next day #then in the morning i take them from the fridge and use them as serum the next day #after masks i use the Nature Republic aloe gel and for now i dont have a moisturizer akdkdk #but it's okie! my face doesnt get too dry or too oily without one. im waiting for an entire innisfree set rn though and it has a cream in it #i used to use the Pond's one but it makes me more oily and its too fragrant #i havent seen a new pimple in a week though now that theyre all gone #american products have never workerd for me so now i gotta order all my shit from amazon or stylekorean or wishtrend dkdkdl so expensive #im gonna try some benton stuff next #in the winter maybe. i also want the Banila Co. balm cleanser but its so much monee
