Beauty Tips For Body Care
Hi SCA,So last night I noticed this one patch of tiny bumps surrounding this cyst that is becoming less inflamed now. Still there today. It doesn't itch or anything, it looks slightly pink in colour. I hope it's not tiny clogged pores, ugh. I think it might be overexfoliation? link This is the first cyst I've broken out with since my 2nd course of accutane ended (June 2015). So I guess I went kinda overboard to bring it down. In addition to my normal routine, I treated it with clindamycin solution for a couple days but not on the entire area the bumps now are, so I really have no idea what could've caused this reaction. Only time I've ever seen tiny bumps like this on my skin in the past is after waxing it, but I never do that anymore so.... thoughts?? Thanks so much.Routine (with AM and PM distinctions): Bioderma Sensibo H2O (PM, to remove makeup) GoW Cleansing Oil (PM, to remove makeup) GoW Antibacterial Cleanser (AM + PM) Tone with GoW Hydrating Mist (AM + PM) Wait 15 min (only if applying exfoliants) Biologique Recherche P50, wait 20 min (PM only, before BHA) PC 2% BHA, wait 20 min (PM always, maybe 2-3 mornings a week too) PC BHA 9 to spot treat (PM only, just started this a few days ago) Apply GoW Serums, GoW HA + passion fruit seed oil (AM + PM) + GoW EAST organic shea butter (PM only) Toleraine Fluide (AM only) Sunscreen (biore watery essence) (AM only) Makeup (AM only, lol)For Routine Help: My skin type is oily/dehydrated. Routine aims to clear out the tons of clogged pores I have (that sometimes become inflamed) while fading PIH and maintaining hydration. My skin is so difficult, my acne isn't even bad it's just extremely resistant to treatments. I swear it only responds to accutane and even then it takes over 6 months to see results, first round I took I was on it for 8 months and I still had a cyst on my last month! AND my skin doesn't get dry or flaky on accutane, it's more "balanced" and my oily skin returns immediately after I stop taking it. Anyway, after my 2nd course my skin was sort of clear, just a lot of clogged pores and tiny pustules so I was using PC 2% BHA every night plus Retin A Micro 0.04% every 3 nights. This caused my skin to be really dry and flaky, the reaction you would expect from accutane, but my skin was pretty damn clear. I eventually got fed up with the extreme dryness and peeling because even though my skin was clear, it looked so flaky and horrible with makeup on, and I noticed more fine lines in my face which scared me because I'm only 20. I then tried to switch it up entirely with GoW products (around Nov 2015) and started breaking out more frequently than before. A couple months later, experimented a bit with different products, and here I am. I'm thinking of cutting out BHA and AHA for a while and using only Retin A for a few months but idk for sure, I'm just not really satisfied with my current routine.
