Nu o să o fac. Nu voi!
I figure, if I keep up with this mantra, it’ll ultimately come to pass…but so far, no dice.

Just to add a bit background, in situation you don’t understand me from a slice of watermelon, I have combo skin as well as tend to break out around my mouth, chin as well as forehead, as well as I’m in my mid-40s (about to turn 46, as a matter fact). ideal now I’m battling the great fight against the occasional hormone-related breakout, along with, ugh…hyperpigmentation. SUNSCREEN IS MY HOMEGIRL.
With that said, let’s go…
The normal Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5
I just recently chosen up this hydrating product from Ulta, as well as I’m lurving it. I’ve checked out that integrating a hyaluronic acid serum into your skin care regimen can be excellent for dry skin, but, apparently, there’s a technique to making this idea genuinely worth your time, which is that you have to apply the product when your skin is damp, then promptly comply with up with a moisturizer to seal in stated hydrating yumminess.
What’s the offer with hyaluronic acid? Well, it’s a sugar discovered naturally in our bodies, as well as its task in the skin is to hold onto water, so it keeps things plump as well as hydrated. Hyaluronic acid is likewise discovered in our joints as well as eyes as well.
As a skin care ingredient, it’s believed to act as a humectant since of its capability to draw as well as hold water, keeping your skin moisturized throughout the day!
There are great deals of different hyaluronic acid serums at different cost points (I’ll link some down below), however I chosen up this since it was only $7 for a 1-oz. bottle, as well as I’ve been steadily utilizing it for the past month. I’m about a quarter of the method with it now, as well as my normal dry areas don’t feel as tight as they did before I started, so I’ll happily get one more bottle.
Yes, it’s an additional step…but if your skin’s been feeling parched, it’s absolutely worth it, IMO.
A few hyaluronic serums
Vichy Mineral 89 everyday Skin Booster Serum as well as moisturizer ($28 for 1.69 fl. oz.)
SkinCeuticals Hyaluronic Acid Intensifier ($102 for 1 fl. oz.!!!)
Neutrogena Hydro improve Hydrating Serum ($22 for 1 oz.)
First aid appeal Facial gleam Niacinamide Dark area Serum
This serum for fading dark areas as well as hyperpigmentation, among other things, is from very first aid Beauty.
Niacinamide, a.k.a. water-soluble Vitamin B3 is a heroic component that gets mega-love in skin care circles since of exactly how well lots of people believe it works for different skin types (even sensitive), as well as it seems to do whatever as well as then some, from lessening big pores, moisturizing and, yes, evening out skin tone. Its rock star condition is likewise because of exactly how well it layers with other active skin care ingredients, like peptides, hyaluronic acid, antioxidants, retinols as well as acids.
This specific serum is lovely. It works well with all of the other things I’ve had in the mix, as well as likewise works excellent under copious layers of sunscreen (you gotta reapply all throughout the day, my love) as well as makeup.
I’ve been utilizing it for a couple weeks now, as well as it seems to assist with fading post-acne dark spots. It’s pricey, though, at $42 for a 1-oz. bottle, so I’m going to wait a few a lot more weeks to figure out whether or not I’m going to keep it in the mix… I do like it so far.
Biossance Squalane + BHA Pore-Minimizing Toner
WHY IS IT SO difficult TO discover A great BHA TONER?
Știu, știu. everybody likes the Paula’s option BHA Toner as well as talks about it like it’s the one BHA toner to policy them all, however even though I’ve gone with a lot of bottles as well as have been desperately wanting to drink the Kool-Aid, I don’t believe it does all that much for me.
I just recently started checking out other choices as well as stumbled onto the Biossance Squalane + BHA Pore-Minimizing Toner.
With this one, you truly have to dig into the component listing since it really doesn’t consist of salicylic acid.
Instead, it has willow bark extract, which consists of salicin, which is where salicylic acid comes from. Biossance states that it’s a natural BHA as well as acts a lot more as an “anti-inflammatory” ingredient, while likewise carefully exfoliating, tightening pores as well as balancing oil.
I do feel like it’s extremely gentle, as well as it does a respectable task of not irritating my skin. It likewise seems to assist calm it down… I had some upset red bumpy patcHES de la supradotarea retinolului, precum și acest toner mi-a asistat cu adevărat pielea răcoroasă afară.
Îmi place, totuși nu-mi place. Da, nu este incredibil de aggro, pe care apreciez, totuși nu simt că se mișcă destul de repede.
Trebuie să spun, totuși, că se pare că această sticlă va dura mult timp. Am folosit trei sau patru picături în fiecare dimineață timp de o lună, precum și am făcut-o abia în ea.
Linia de jos? Dacă doriți o versiune blândă a unui toner de acid salicilic, acesta poate fi blocajul dvs.
Voi continua să încerc să găsesc un toner BHA care îmi roagă șosetele … Dacă aveți unul pe care îl iubești, sunt toate urechile! Până în prezent, acestea sunt pe lista mea de “aspect în ea”:
Tipologie Purificarea tonerului 1% Acid salicilic: Acesta este de $ 24 pentru 7,2-Oz, deci se pare că veți obține o mulțime de bang pentru dolarul dvs. Îmi place că este alcătuită din acid salicilic real, împreună cu aloe vera (care îi place pielea mea). OMG, am lovit doar “Adaugă în coș”! exact cum sa întâmplat asta? LAUGH OUT LOUD!
NATURIUM BHA lichid exfoliant 2%: există drama YouTube care înconjoară această linie, precum și fondatorul său. I dunno, cu toate acestea cuvântul “umbros” a fost aruncat în jur. Oricum, nu sunt incredibil de entuziasmat de acest produs, totuși listarea componentelor pare decentă, precum și am putea să o iau la țintă. Este de 20 de dolari pentru o sticlă de 4 oz. * ridică din umeri *
Skininyals LHA Toner: Skin ‘Skinyuticals. De ce trebuie să fii atât de bun? Am avut mult mai mult decât partea mea de momente euforice cu serul lor de vitamina C, care este motivul principal pentru care sunt curios despre acest toner, care se află pe capătul pricier la 40 de dolari pentru 6,8 oz. Se compune dintr-un amestec de acid lipo hidroxi (LHA, care este un derivat al acidului salicilic), acid glicolic, precum și acidul salicilic. Ugh, vrei!
