ADULT ACNE ON DRY SKIN
Cult Beauty expert Sarah Chapman says:
First of all - diet.Make sure you get a good balanced diet. Supplement it with Omega 3 to help the dryness and inflammation, as well daily time release Vitamin C and zinc to help healing.
Next, always remember not to pick as this will scar and mark the skin. As healing is slow, I would recommend massaging the face at home with a Ying Yu Face Roller to stimulate the blood flow and aid drainage. Your skin seems to be sluggish, tired, and in need of pepping up, so, if you can, I would also suggest a few facials to bring it to life.
I would change your cleansing routine to incorporate an oil cleanser (e.g. Skinesis Ultimate Cleanse, Oskia Perfect Cleanser, Omorovicza Thermal Cleansing Balm). Massage this thoroughly into the skin to help dissolve pore blockages, as well as stimulate circulation and lymph drainage. This will cleanse effectively without drying your skin, which can also lead to break outs.
It is also extremely important to exfoliate. This lifts off the dry cells which can sit on the surface and block the pathway for sebum to pass out of the pores. This can lead to spots, so we must therefore address the dryness with nourishment and gentle exfoliation. For gentle exfoliation options I like Alpha H Liquid Gold or Peter Thomas Roth Max Complexion Correction Pads. I would also suggest using a
Although Bio Oil is great stuff, we would question whether this is helping your issues. A healing serum would probably have a better effect because when your skin is dry it usually needs more help than a moisturiser alone can provide. Peter Thomas Roth also do a high potency Vitamin C Serum and Alpha H a Gentle Exfoliat Moisturiser, which are packed with everything you need to clear your skin. Finally, Oxygen Plasma Potion from Ling Skin Care was designed to heal scarring from severe burns suffered in combat (Cameron Diaz and Agyness Deyn use it to keep their spots in check).
Once you have sorted out the big issues, Australian Bodycare Facial Wash and On the Spot Stick are extremely effective and great value as an ongoing maintenance routine.
