Hi guys,

I'm getting married in 2 months and I need desperate help with choosing a new cleanser. I am debating between B.Kamins Acne Wash, Phytomer Oligypure Cleanser, Dr H Cleansing Milk, or Decleor Oily skin cleanser. I have mild acne and truly oily skin. I am also considering getting the decelor Ylang Ylang oil + balm, PSF Acne Mask etc.

Please suggest!

firstly congrats on the wedding Very Happy

i have oily / combo skin and find Dr renaud phytogel cleanser to be great , it can be used on ANY skin type even sensitive and i have found it to balance my oily bts and dry bits . also there intervension moisturising fluid base is a great moisturiser to mattify and control oil all day long .

HTH and Good Luck

I would definately go for the Decleor Oil and Balm and maybe their cleanser too.
But if you really want to clear your skin then I would strongly recomend putting diet before skincare.....yes thats right start from the inside lots of water, fruit and vegetables. A good detox does wonders for congested skin.
Supplements also help.
Also try and do as much exercise outdoors in the fresh air, last year I spent a month tidying up the garden and everyone commented how beautiful and fresh my skin looked, plus it was a great stress reliever (also important as stress can cause outbreaks too).
Try an alcohol, coffee, sugar ban up until the wedding too.
And finally CONGRATULATIONS Very Happy

I second Rosebud's recommendation for detoxing, drink lots of water, supplements, get outside and be very careful of nasty ingredients.

May I recommend the Zenbiotics skin care line? I recently added them to my routine and am VERY impressed. The products are clean and almost too cheap to believe given some of the prices of products I have used! Their oxygen spray is fantastic and it actually balances my skin - which is as oily as it could possibly be!!! I promise you, I have tried EVERYTHING to control it and even w/good skin care, it was still a problem. Well, no more, thanks to the oxygen spray. Smile

Angel,

I would highly recommend Ice Elements acne serum. It is a lovely product that is getting great raves from everyone who has used it.

My son has had great results with it and I have used it a handful of times with great results too.

Take care.
Bosoxy.

If you have truly oily skin from the cleansers you listed I would recommend the Phytomer. Cleansing milks might not work that well, and I've looked into most of the cleansers you mentioned so I have done some research and read most feedback already. The thing is you don't want a cleanser that would dry out your skin nor do you want one that would leave a film. You may also want to try Yonka's Gel Cleanser.

YY oil + balm is great and so is the PSF mask. I also really like Earth to Body's Clay-Neem Treatment for your skin.

Hi Angelimissy! Oh my goodness, I am sooo raving over this cleanser I've been using on my truely oily, acne prone skin. This product from purity cosmetics:
http://www.puritycosmetics.com/FacialEucalyptusSeafoam.html
Is to die for!!! I am simply amazed at what it hs done for my skin. I tried the Dr. H Cleansing Cream, but it left an oil film on my skin and made my skin look congested. I need to write an official review for this product in the forum, it's just so amazing and perfect. When you ar eusing it, it feels fantastic and minty and immediatly after your skin will look more clear and clean. But over longer term, I've noticed that it healed my existing breakouts and I haven't broken out since I started using it (2 weeks ago), which is great for me! It's just so refreshing and deeply cleansing, I love it. It isn't drying at all! My skin is so soft and flawless looking after I use it. Here are the ingredients (amazing, amazing top notch pure ingredients)
Organic seaweeds (Kelp, Sea Lettuce, Spiraluna), French Green Clay, Honey, Coco betaine, Vitamin C (ascorbyl palmitate, Vitamin E (a-tocopherol), Seabuckthorn, Rosehip Oil, Grapefruit Seed Extract, Rosemary extract

You can get this cleanser rom bathandbodyworks.com, or at flagship BBW store. Or at puritycosmetic.com of coures. Good luck and congratulations!!!
Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy
