Beauty Tips For Body Care
http://imgur.com/gallery/qZqgnAfter doing some research and trial & error, I found the routine that finally gave me clear skin for the first time as an adult:Cleanse with Nizoral + Clarisonic 3x/week (at night)Cleanse with a Stridex pad 2x/day (not on Nizoral days--noticed excessive dryness)Differin 1x/daily (at night)CeraVe Moisturizing Cream 2x/daily (morning and night)About a month ago, I was feeling terribly frustrated with my skin. This was definitely not a new feeling for me, as I've been struggling with acne on my face for nearly ten years now. However, this time I decided to try typing my symptoms into Google Images instead of the standard search engine. I found an image of someone with skin that resembled mine, and the link redirected me to a blog entitled Simple Skincare Science. Now, this is not an advertisement (at least not a paid one lol) for this site, but I think others on this subreddit could benefit from its content. I know I certainly did. This blog mentions this subreddit a lot, and it's actually how I found out about this community in the first place.From reading further into the post I was redirected to, I discovered that I was likely suffering from Pityrosporum (Malassezia) Folliculitis instead of general Acne Vulgaris. This changed the fucking game. For years, I had been prescribed antibiotics and every combination of benzoyl peroxide I think exists. I had never heard of this skin disease from my dermatologist. Little did I know that the medications being prescribed to me were actually feeding the culprit behind my skin disorder--Malessezia. I began religiously reading this blog and users' routines on this subreddit to formulate my own.The routine listed above has given me the skin transformation you see in the image above. I am so grateful to everyone involved, especially the redditors here, for supplying me with the information I needed to get to this point. From one skincare addict to another, thank you! I'm sure you all know how important the appearance and health of our skin can be in our daily lives and interactions. I now feel more equipped than ever to accomplish my goals without feeling self-conscious about my appearance.
