[Acne] Finally found my holy grail product!

Beauty Tips For Body Care
So after roughly 9 months of trial and error, I think I’ve finally found the solution to my skinMy skin is incredibly oily, but at first thought it was dehydrated since it “felt dry” underneath. Thats when I realised the tons of CC’s were what was making my skin feel rough.Most of my acne are CC’s turning into tiny pustules. I had the occasional cyst but this was rare. I’m thankful they are small but I had a shiton of them. Like they were basically all over my face.As I originally thought my skin was dehydrated I used soooo many hydrating products. This made my CC’s worse and made me look even greasier. Due to people constantly saying not to exfoliate I didn’t until I gave in and tried it out.I noticed areas where I flaked were areas where I had recent breakouts. First I thought I had Seb derm but it turns out I flaked a lot because I had a shiton of breakouts constantly. The areas that I thoroughly got rid of the dead skin flakes had significantly less breakouts.So I got Clinique’s Clarifying Lotion 1.0. I didn’t go for the clarifying lotion 2 since it contains alcohol and have used it before and it was quite irritating. The Lotion 1.0 didn’t sting at all and has 0.5 % salicylic acid. It gets rid of all of my skin flakes and overall cleans my face incredibly well. My reddish flaky spots are now disappearing and my CC’s are shrinking. I am also getting significantly less breakouts!My skin is still oily though. It just tells me this is my normal skin type. People on this sub seem to think that oily=dehydrated. Not always, people can just have naturally oily skin no matter what. Obviously don’t be incredibly harsh on your skin as this does lead to more oil from experience. Remember to moisturise too!
