Hi everyone,
I've always been very lucky with having good skin until recently. I'm 31 years old and have never really had any issues with acne. Even as a teen I'd only get them once in blue moon. About 3 months ago, I was experimenting with PSF VIT C and got this huge reaction on the lower right side of my face. It was a combination of a rash and pimples. It was a nightmare! Well ever since then the rash cleared up but now I break out constantly on that side of my face (right check, right jaw line and chin).
It's gotten to the point that I dread looking in the mirror. I've been using the OCM and aspirin masks more often than usual(I'm horrible with keeping up a facial cleansing routine since I never had to do much before) but I was hoping to get some advice from the pros(that would be all of you!). Thanks in advance. |

My initial suggestion to normalise your skin is forget the OCM and aspirin masks and buy a proper cleanser that will clean your skin without stripping it. There are many good cleansers available and a few suggestions which I have used include DS Labs Hydroviton, Jan Marini Bioglycolic Cleanser, Cellcosmet Gel Cleanser and Valmont Fresh Falls. Follow the cleanser with a non comedonic moisturiser and your skin will be back to normal. Suggestions for a moisturiser include Remergent Barrier Repair and Amino Genesis Photolagen.
I feel that some of the products you have been using have over sensitised your skin and it needs to be repaired and calmed. The products I have suggested will help with that. |
