I Have Oily Skin.....Now What?

Hey guys, today we are going to be talking about skin care. First I thought about only doing a whole post about skin care but then we would be here forever so this thread will be a series.
I have oily skin prone to acne (all those of you who are with me raise your hands 😂). For several years I have been struggling, big time, with acne and I still struggle but not as much.

I think it is very important to go to a dermatologist and do a proper treatment, that was the thing that transformed my skin, however the following products have been helping me a lot. My skin, despite the few pimples that I currently have, looks healthy. And the pimples are not as bad as they used to be.

If you have oily skin you should try to avoid products that are comedogenic because those will clog your pores and don't wash your face with cold water because it will close your pores (so the skin care products won't penetrate your pores) nor with warm water because it will dry your skin (which will lead to more oil production).

So without further due the first step of my skin care routine is cleanser:

cleanser is a facial care product that is used to remove make-up, dead skin cells, oil, dirt, and other types of pollutants from the skin. This helps to unclog pores and prevent acne. 

I use the L'Óreal Paris purifying gel. This one is very good because it contains salycilic acid and argila. This particularly one costs 6€



Other good options are:
Garnier Pure Active Range

Clean&Clear Pimple Clearing Face Wash

Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash, 6

Clean&Clear Blackhead Clearing Cleanser, 6.99




Note: I'm not a dermatologist nor do I have any experience related. I'm only sharing what works for me and what I do as a skin care routine. The products I use might not work for you that's why I share other products so feel free to find one that will work for you.

I Have Oily Skin...Now what? (Part II)

Hey guys, today we are continuing the talk about skin care routine, mostly what comes after the cleanser. After the cleanser comes the face mask and I alternate between 2 face masks, both from Garnier .  So on Monday, Wednesday and Thursday I use the Garnier Skin Active- Pure Active Intensive (the charcoal one) and on Saturday and Sunday I use the Garnier Skin Active- Pure Active 3 in 1. A face mask will help the process of cleaning your face, unclog your pores, thighten and tone your skin, and last but not least it will leave your skin with a glowing healthy look. Garnier SkinActive- Pure Active 3 in 1, 6.99€ Garnier SkinActive- Pure Active Intensive, 8.99€ Ps: The Garnier Skin Active- Pure Active 3 in 1 has a very strong scent, so if you struggle with strong scents you might wanna pass on that one  Other options: Murad Instamatte Oil-Control Mask, 40€ Pixi Glow Mud Mask, around 25€ Avene Cleanance M...
