5/22/2018 0 Comments My Current Skincare Routine: FaceI have had a pretty complicated journey with acne. In short, I had a reaction to my oral acne medication, minocycline, which caused my immune system to attack my organs. If you want to learn more about my story, visit the "about" tab and scroll to "My Story."
After I learned I was having a reaction to my medication, I knew I had to get off of it even if it had cleared my skin. I did not want to take any more oral acne medications and just stick to topical, preferably not prescription-strength. I was prepared for my skin to suffer, but I was willing to face that rather than an unhealthy body. Nonetheless, I was worried about what I would do so that my acne would not go back to the way it was before starting my medication. You may or may not have heard of Dr. Pimple Popper aka Dr. Sandra Lee. Not only is Dr. Lee a dermatologist in California, but she is also famous on Instagram and other social media for her epic pimple pops on @drpimplepopper. Dr. Sandra Lee is also the founder of SLMD Skincare. Her skincare line consists of a variety of treatments for your skincare needs, and it is still growing. I am happy to say that SLMD products have saved my skin from going back to the way it was before minocycline. Now I am not saying I have perfect skin (who does?) and I still do get breakouts and pimples here and there like a normal person, especially a teenager in school, but it has cleared my skin phenomenally. Under the “My Story” on the “about” tab, you can see before and after pictures of my skin (before minocycline to current). The product I use from her line is the BP Free Bundle. The “BP” stands for “benzoyl peroxide” which is a topical medication used to treat acne. Some skin types, such as mine, are sensitive to benzoyl peroxide, so this bundle is perfect (especially if you have sensitive skin in general). You can visit the link under the picture of the bundle to learn more about the system and its ingredients. Another must-have in my skincare routine is the Mario Badescu Drying Lotion. Many people, such as celebrity Kylie Jenner, praise this tiny miraculous bottle. It is a perfect spot treatment for any pesky pimples that might pop up on your face. You can visit the link under the picture of the drying lotion to learn more about this product. My skin is important for my confidence, and achieving clear skin the safe way is important to me. I hope that you can find clear skin the safe way too and that maybe these products could assist you with that. I have tried many acne products and as I said before have had quite a bit of experience with acne, so if you have any questions or need advice on your skin, you can contact me by filling out the form under the “contact me” tab. I will get back to you as soon as possible! |
