It’s nothing as well bad…yet (knocks on wood), certainly not as poor as the significant humdingers I get in some cases along my jawline. These are just bit whiteheads on my chin as well as around the edge of my forehead, as well as a couple of body breakouts on my breast as well as booty.

Yes, girl, booty — specifically, my left butt cheek, if you should know.

Is that TMI? Probably, however it’s not like I’m the very first person (or the last) to get a agonizing pimple on their bum.

Tak czy siak! When Neutrogena as well as Walgreens asked if I was down to switch up my acne-fighting game with their #LetsSolveIt campaign as well as take the quiz at SolveMyAcne.com, I thought, “Good timing!”

I’ve had excellent luck with Neutrogena skin care over the years, as well as I dig Walgreens (I utilized to go there on my breaks everyday when I worked in SF), so I stated “sure!”

Getting back into the swing of things at institution after summertime break is stressful enough. who needs the added tension of a poor breakout? get professional skin care recs with the Neutrogena #LetsSolveIt campaign by taking the Acne-Fighting Quiz at SolveMyAcne.com, as well as feel fabulously positive in clearer skin.

First step: the quiz. as well as it’s not one of those quizzes that they state is only going to take two minutes however ends up taking 20. It truly is just a handful of simple questions.

Like so…

Based on my answers, right here are the four products the quiz suggested for me as well as my combo dry/oily skin:

Oil-Free Acne tension manage Power cream laundry ($8.99): This creamy, oil-free deal with laundry works without stripping or drying the skin. It includes salicylic acid (2%), as well as cucumber as well as eco-friendly tea extracts, to fight breakouts while decreasing redness as well as clearing up oil.

This gloriously grapefruit-scented laundry likewise includes chamomile, eco-friendly tea extract, vitamin C as well as 2% salicylic acid to treat body breakouts on the shoulders, back as well as breast while keeping new breakouts from…breaking out.

I like the concept of a whole acne regimen that only includes four products. I can deal with a four-step process, so I put my routine skin care favorites aside, as well as I’ve been utilizing these for two weeks.

Step 1: Acne tension manage Power cream Wash

Every morning as well as evening, I washed my deal with with the Acne tension manage Power cream laundry (which smells mildly minty). I like exactly how it leaves my skin feeling somewhat tingly (it’s a great pick-me-up in the morning!), as well as that it doesn’t make the dry parts of my skin feel tight or otherwise uncomfortable.

Step 2: fast stamina Acne treatment Pads

Then, best after utilizing the deal with wash, I wiped one of the fast stamina Acne treatment Pads around my face, paying special interest to the bit whiteheads along my jawline as well as around my forehead. At that point, there was typically some leftover product on the pad, so I’d likewise wipe the areas where I was breaking out on my breast (as well as that a person frustrating pimple on my bum).

Step 3: Oil-Free Moisturizer

After utilizing the pad, I completed up my deal with routine by moisturizing my deal with as well as neck with the Oil-Free Moisturizer.

And I did this every morning as well as night before bed after my shower.

Step 4: Body remove Body laundry in Pink Grapefruit

Lastly, while I was still IN the shower at night, I utilized the Body remove Body laundry in Pink Grapefruit around my breast (and, again, my booty), as well as then my routine body laundry to laundry all over else.

Z pewnością odkryłem ulepszenie w mojej skórze w ciągu ostatnich dwóch tygodni, zwłaszcza z pryszczami wokół krawędzi mojego czoła, które są – yay! – Nigdzie nie znaleziono.

Weź to, Zits!

Nadal mam jedną małą bitową whitehead na moim podbródku … ale jest teraz w punkcie, gdzie rozumiem, że będzie to za kilka dni.

Byłem trochę zaniepokojony, że transakcja z pralnią, a także podkładki wyschłaby moje policzki (które już są tak suche), jednak jeszcze nie. Naprawdę lubię je zarówno, jak i planować kontynuować ich wykorzystanie.

Oh! Jak również założenie Co? Wymyśliłem, że możesz uzyskać więcej uderzeń dla swojej złotówki, jeśli wycinasz podkładki na pół. Tak, wykorzystuję parę nożyczek, które trzymam w swojej szafce lekarskiej.

Hej, Walgreens, a także kupujących Walgreens.com! Robić 3000 Walgreens Równowaga Powieści Punkty z zakupem 15 USD lub znacznie więcej w wybierz produkty neutrogeny z 28 sierpnia 2015 r.

Jeśli chodzi o nawilżający olej, olszere obszary na mojej umowie z naprawdę podobnymi, jak moje czoło, nos, a także podbródek. Moje policzki, które są jednak zawsze epicznie suche, wymóg znacznie większej wilgotności niż to, więc muszę warstwować dodatkową, bogatszą nawilżającą na górze.

Mogę nadal wykorzystać go na imprezie, gdy moja skóra jest oparta o wiele więcej w kierunku dodatkowej oleistej strony, jednak wierzę, że najprawdopodobniej pracuje znacznie lepiej, jeśli masz prosto o tłustej lub typowej skórze.

Jeśli chodzi o pranie ciała, wow! – Pachnie niesamowite. Lubię chrupiące zapachy cytruzyjne, a także te skały.

I działa też dobrze, ponieważ przerwy na mojej piersi są praktycznie zniknęły. Nie więcej niż czerwone pryszcze, a także niewiele non-Aggroysy, które pozostały, są małe, a także wyglądają jak są na ostatnich nogach. Plus, nie wysuszyła mojej skóry.

Zit na moim bum (jestem szalony, albo nie byłoby to doskonałą nazwę zespołu?) Jest również mniej agonizacji, a także mniejszych.

W sumie miałem doskonałe doświadczenie z tymi produktami walki z trądzikiem, a także czuję się znacznie bardziej pozytywnie w mojej jaśniejszej skórze.

Jestem dla ciebie przygotowany, upadku!
