okay...i have oily skin and its VEEERRRRY sensitive . im trying to get rid of my acne though. are there any acne systems that could help both the acne and oily skin? thank u.
I have oily skin, but it's not very oily. My friend, however, kind of has your situation. She uses Proactive. I know there are a lot of rumors saying it doesn't work, blah blah blah.... But she got real results. She follows her routine to the tee, so if you are going to start any new routine, make sure you ease into it from your old one. Then you can't miss a day. Your skin will flare up and breakout. I use Neutragena's creme cleanser. It's the one in the green bottle. It's oil free, and I can really feel it cleaning out my pores. Remember to do your face wash routine in the morning and afternoon. If your skin is becoming a real problem, see your dermatologist.
The reason Proactiv gives good results is because it basically strips your face. Harsh, I know ha. But it's the truth, it is filled with chemicals that may not be good for your skin in the long run. Dermologica is literally the only brand I can think to suggest... It's very effective.
