Beauty Tips For Body Care
First off, thank you to this community. You’ve helped so much. This is my first post and hopefully will be my only one, as I have finally got my acne under control and have a routine that I’m happy with after years of searching. The key for me has been in finding azelaic acid (specifically finacea) - the only thing that has ever truly made a difference to my skin. I’ve gone from constant struggles with huge hormonal acne to weeks without ANY acne within 4 months.Background - I always had good skin as a teenager but then got adult onset acne at about age 21, with it getting progressively worse until a few months ago (I’m now 27). It is definitely hormonal linked. I would get the occasional cyst and many papules and pustules on my chin - I would say 3 big bad ones per month plus a lot of smaller ones that really got me down. I have tried so so many things (differin, other retinol, AHAs/BHAs, benzoyl peroxide, tea tree, etc etc etc) and was months away from starting accutane or birth control. I read on here about azelaic acid and bought a tube of financea and haven’t looked back. I now have occaisonal small papules and pustules still, but they are so much smaller than usual and I have whole weeks with completely clear skin. I no longer wear makeup.RoutineMORNING - cleanse with CeraVe hydrating cleanser - The ordinary niacidimide & zinc - finacea 15% azelaic acid - la Roche posay antihelios suncreen SPF50EVENING - cerave cleanser - finacea 15% azelaic acid - every few nights The Ordinary salicylic acidI really hope this post helps other people as it’s been such a game changer for me. Good luck everyone!
