(ignore lens distortion and bloat JFLLLL)
After SEVEN years of being incredibly self-conscious about my acne, dry skin, and irritated skin. I believe I have finally reached a place where I feel confident in my own skin.
Acne-cels you know the exact fucking feeling i’m talking about. Socializing while knowing how fucked up your skin is, is a complete death sentence. It’s always lurking in the back of your mind, whatever ur doing.
Then you see mfs like THESE roaming around the social event with perfect model tier skin and you contemplate catching a flight to India and jumping off the top of the Taj Mahal
Whatever, u get the point i’ll quit rambling on and tell you my exact routine of what products i use as well as links/sources of where you can acquire them yourself!
This routine mainly works for people with dry, sensitive, and acne prone skin. I have no clue if this work with oily skin etc. The dryness is why this routine is so heavily moisturizer based. Restoring your moisture barrier is crucialZ I’ve tried various routines, spent hundreds of dollars, etc. This is the routine that worked for me verbatim. This was what my skin looked like 2.5 years ago.
because i was so insecure. brutal collagen, dry skin, and acne. (brutally mogs that pnuemo pic above ik)
The Routine (in order of appliance):
AM:
- La Roche-Posay Hydrating Cleanser (to wash off all this shit from previous morning) LINK HERE
- Ice Face to soothe irritation
- Pyunkang Yul Hydrating Toner (Koreans know their fucking skincare trust me) LINK HERE
- Clindamycin (stops irritation and stops growth of acne bacteria) Its a prescription but you can get it on alldaychemist HERE
- Pyunkang Yul Moisturizer for Dry skin (again, let the koreans do their thing)LINK HERE
- La Roche-Posay Cicaplast B5+ Repair Balm (GODSEND, but only use on active dry spots, or irritated spots, no point of using this as a second moisturizer, ur face will glow and it will look gay)LINK HERE
- Sun protection
- Benzoyl Peroxide (not needed but place on active acne if u want it to go away quicker)LINK HERE
PM:
- Wash face with just water
- Ice face to soothe irritation
- Pyunkang Yul Hydrating Toner (Koreans know their fucking skincare trust me) LINK HERE
- .025 Tretinoin (it’s a prescription but you can get it on alldaychemist HERE)
- Paula’s Choice Azelaic Acid for redness (probably not necessary for you) but link HERE if you want it)
- Pyunkang Yul Moisturizer for Dry skin (again, let the koreans do their thing)LINK HERE
- La Roche-Posay Cicaplast B5+ Repair Balm (GODSEND, but only use on active dry spots, or irritated spots, no point of using this as a second moisturizer, ur face will glow and it will look gay)LINK HERE
That’s my routine of what I do every day
for my skin. It’s a pain in the ballsack but
100% worth it in my opinion.
One more thing that you can do if you acne
isn’t going away for social events, etc. just
put some bb cream on the zit or redness
and it looks like it’s not even there. This is
the one I use HERE it’s cheap and it mogs.
Two other tips that helped me clear my skin were:
1. To Stop touching my face with my
greasy ass hands
2. Change my pillowcase every 3-5
days or so.
Best of luck to the people that need this
thread. For the people who don’t, kys u
lucky pricks.
Next up on my looksmaxxing journey- Dyeing my brows dark
brown, and my lashes black
