It's been a while since I lasted posted an acne update. Since then, my skin has changed along with the season. Right now I'm starting to show more signs of dryness, which also results in more breakouts.
To fix the dryness I bought a heavy night cream over the weekend. I'll probably see how that works out before I spend the big bucks on a new moisturizer.
To be honest, no matter how much I spend on skincare, my skin always looks and feels the same. The only thing that really makes my skin feel different is the Glamglow Supermud mask. It doesn't make my acne go away completely but it subsides my breakouts to some degree. Though, right now I feel like it may be too drying for the colder months. I need all of the moisture I can get!
As you can see in the photo above, my breakouts are lower and closer towards my mouth. I haven't had very many on my upper cheeks. However, I'm worried I'll break out up there soon. I do every single time during winter. I don't know if my skin just hates cold weather or I break out because of allergies (is that a thing?), or what. I just know I do break out worse when it's cold outside.
Another weird thing I have noticed are pimples on my nose. I have never broke out on my nose but for some reason I have woke up with nose pimples a couple times this month. I Don't know what that's about!
I did buy two other things along with my new moisturizer. I got the Burts Bees Natural Acne Solutions Gel Cleanser, the Loreal Youth Code Serum Instense and of course, the Olay Regenerist Regenerating Night Recovery Cream Moisturizer.
If you can't tell, I'm in a major Christmas mood. I know Thanksgiving is this week, no I don't want it to be over with, but I am in the holiday spirit! How can I not be when I already started Christmas shopping?
I pretty much made those three products my night time routine. I started two days ago and I think I have noticed a difference but it may be too early to tell. I can say I haven't been cursed with any new pimples and my skin does feel extra plump. Wouldn't it be crazy if I bought my perfect combo?! Doubt it, but hopeful.
If you want a complete skincare routine just let me know. I'm willing to do one, but I haven't found my holy grail products yet... So it might be pointless. Plus, products that help me will only help you if your acne or skin is the same as mine.
Well that's it for now. I'll give everyone an update in a future post or on Instagram & Twitter. Let me know if you have any questions or feed back. I always enjoy reading comments from you all!
