I use fresh soy cleanser but switching to dermalogica. I use Clinique clarifying lotion for exfoliation which they have one for acne. Then I use Vichy thermal lotion SPF 30 lotion moisturizers are better for oily or problem skin for my experience
I have super sensitive super dry skin. Right now I'm using
Bliss Clog dissolving cleansing milk
Ole Henrikson Truth serum & sheer transformation , and Atopalm mle cream for day.
Differin (prescription retinoid), Maracuja oil, and Hope in a jar at night.
I'm also loving philosophy microdelivery enzyme peel. I use it 2-3x a week. My skin is too sensitive for physical exfoliation so a lactic acid peel is great for keeping my pores clean.
For my face I use:
Clean and Clear Oil Absorbing Cream Cleanser (am with Clairisonic) and Aveeno Clear Complexion Foaming Face Wash
100% Natural Witch Hazel
Simple Light Moisturizer.
And for my body I use:
Aveeno Clear Complexion Bar
Neutrogena Body Clear spray.
For spot treatments I use a sulfur based spot treatment.
I also use a clay mask once a week (Queen Helene Mint Julep) and a scrub (Clean and Clear Blackhead Eraser).
As long as I keep my skin in a routine, I find that it tames it really well.
I mentioned in another thread that ive been in the industry for about 3 years and ive tried a ton of things! I finally cleared my skin up using the Peter Thomas Roth 3% Glycolic Acid Facial Wash and the 10% Glycolic Hydrating Gel with pure aloevera leaf and vitamin a c and e. i only use the gel a few times a week though because its pretty abrasive. I also use the bareminerals mineral veil SPF 25 because i find that liquid sunscreens make me oily and break me out. Hope that helps!
